She said she was watching the coronation at home with her corgi, muick and ferguswhich he adopted after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

“I also like to watch it on TV because it is heard a lot on TV. The commentators are always so good,” commented the duchess, who implied that she was not invited due to the current situation with Andrés. “Remember, I’m divorced from him“, he said. “You can’t have both. You can’t get a divorce and then say, ‘I want this.’ You’re either in or you’re out,” he said.

Sarah and Andrés married in 1986 and separated in 1992. She distanced herself from the royal family after being linked to a series of scandals. However, the duchess and duke still live together today.

A friend said: “The Queen thought Sarah was warm and loyal, almost to a fault, and also fun.“.

British royal commentator Ingrid Stewart said The Independent that the decision not to invite Fergie was “not a matter of personal preference, but of protocol.”

“Fergie has not been invited to any official royal events since the divorce. Being an ex-wife, she wouldn’t expect to be invitedStewart said.

Andrés and princesses Beatriz and Eugenia will be present.
