Although she’s largely remained out of the public eye in recent months, former Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson is reportedly considering breaking her silence.

Sources told InTouch that several top publishers are vying to sign Fergie for a tell-all book. “There’s huge interest in her, especially in America,” one insider said, “but Fergie isn’t going to jump at the first offer. She knows this is the last time she’ll have this kind of leverage, so she’s not about to undersell herself.”

Fergie has yet to agree to a deal, as she’s aiming to secure a bigger payout. The source revealed that the former royal “believes her payday should be in the same ballpark as what Prince Harry got for his memoir, and she’s ready to hold out until she gets it.”

Harry reportedly earned around $27 million from his 2023 memoir Spare.

“She’s very shrewd when it comes to money, and very greedy,” the source continued. “She’s going to play hardball here and milk this for all she can.”

They went on to say that going ahead with a project of this nature would be a huge risk, especially given Fergie’s already strained ties with the royal family.

“Fact is, going ahead with something like this is going to be seen as a direct attack on the royals,” they explained, “and odds are it will leave her even more isolated than she already is, so in her view the check needs to reflect that risk.”

This all comes after reports that Fergie’s credit cards “have taken an absolute hammering” and she’s racked up “an enormous amount of debt” while hiding out at a luxury chalet in Austria. A source close to the situation told Heat World that she’s been “spending money like there’s no tomorrow” and feels “entitled to the high life” as her ties to Jeffrey Epstein come back into focus.

“Her excuse is that she’s in a crisis and she needs this pampering; that it’s for her mental health,” the source added.
