In November, I learned about Queen Elizabeth's last diary entry before her passing in September 2022, and it spoke volumes about her dedication to the Commonwealth. Now, Sarah Ferguson is opening up about the late queen's touching final words to her—and it says quite a lot about their close-knit relationship.
In a recent tell-all interview with The Times, the Duchess of York, 65, detailed how Britain's longest-reigning monarch was a constant source of encouragement and comfort—especially after she welcomed her daughter, Princess Beatrice. Then, the royal reflected on the queen's final six words to her, noting that they were the best advice she'd ever gotten.
Fergie explained, "I was huge, more than 14 stone when I had Beatrice in 1988, and I think I had postnatal depression. Everybody said, 'You’re the Duchess of Pork,' and I believed my critics. But the Queen never lost me. The best advice she gave me was the last thing she said to me: 'Sarah, remember that yourself is good enough.' It makes me cry."
