Sarah Ferguson has often spoken warmly about Meghan Markle and Prince Andrew in interviews, but the most reliable reporting does not support a dramatic “nobody knew” secret story. Based on reported remarks, she said Meghan made Harry happy and that she would always stand by Andrew, which makes for a strong royal-drama angle without inventing facts.

Sarah Ferguson has once again put the royal family back in the spotlight, this time with comments that have fueled fresh interest in Meghan Markle and Prince Andrew. In a recent interview, the Duchess of York spoke openly about both her former husband and the Duchess of Sussex, offering a rare glimpse into how she sees the two most talked-about figures in modern royal drama.
Ferguson made it clear that her loyalty to Prince Andrew remains unchanged. She said she would “always” be there for him, describing the past few years as especially difficult for her ex-husband and suggesting that the late Queen was relieved to have her support around him. That statement alone has drawn attention because it shows how deeply Ferguson remains tied to Andrew despite the controversies surrounding him.
Her comments about Meghan were noticeably softer. Ferguson described Meghan as “absolutely beautiful,” admitted she does not really know her well, and said she believes Meghan has made Prince Harry very happy. She also said she thinks it is beautiful that Harry and Meghan have built a life together, and she added that Princess Diana would be proud of them.
What makes the story so shareable is the contrast. On one hand, Ferguson is unwavering about Andrew; on the other, she is gentle and supportive when speaking about Meghan and Harry. That mix gives royal watchers plenty to dissect, especially because Ferguson has spent decades moving between scandal, sympathy, and resilience in public life.
At the same time, there is no clear evidence of a hidden bombshell involving Meghan and Andrew in the reporting available here. The strongest version of the story is not that Ferguson exposed a secret, but that she gave an unusually candid interview that revealed how she privately views two very different branches of the royal family.
