Will Sarah Ferguson still be a Duchess if she remarries? Prince Andrew’s ex retains title

Sarah Ferguson is a British personality, known best for being the ex wife of Prince Andrew, 59, son of the Queen.

The couple married in 1986 and stayed legally married until 1996.

Sarah, also known as “Fergie”, is the mother to two princesses, Princess Beatrice, 29, and Princess Eugenie, 27.

Known officially as Sarah, Duchess of York, what would her title be if she remarried?

Fergie was called Miss Sarah Margaret Ferguson before her marriage to the Prince, after which she was bestowed a royal title.

She became Her Royal Highness The Duchess of York on her marriage into the Royal Family.

The mother-of-two, who is a patron of a number of charities, divorced the Prince in 1996.

As was the custom in May 1996, at the time of the split, only a sight change needed to be made to Fergie’s name, and she officially became Her Royal Highness Sarah, Duchess of York.

However, a letters patent was issued by the Queen to redress the titles of former wives of princes.

After the new law was issued on 21 August 1996, Fergie became Sarah, Duchess of York.

However, if she remarries she will no longer have the title of Duchess of York.

Sarah Ferguson’s wedding was an exciting day for Britons, and many watched the spectacle.
