In the wake of allegations surrounding her lavish spending, emails detailing connections to a convicted sex offender, and financier have surfaced implicating Sarah Ferguson—the ex-Duchess of York—into an unexpected refuge: Paracelsus Recovery Clinic in Zurich, Switzerland. According to well-placed sources quoted by The Daily Mail, Fergie vanished the moment Christmas was over, staying until late January.
For context, Fergie’s last known stay at Royal Lodge occurred just after her granddaughter Athena’s christening at St James’s Palace on December 12th. Following this pivotal date in the royal calendar, the ex-Duchess abruptly relocated to Zurich for an alleged sense of comfort and care. Locals know Paracelsus as a place where patients feel safe, receiving both love and expert health treatment when they’re most vulnerable.
This revelation comes amidst other insights into Fergie’s deteriorating mental state. A close friend of the ex-Duchess has shared that Sarah is deeply entrenched in despair, battling depression alongside an intense fear: her mind believes others are out to harm her. According to this friend, “she’s very down,” while some people close to her worry for her emotional well-being.
Despite these deep concerns about Fergie’s mental state, one thing remains clear—she appears to be focusing on escape rather than reflection. Her goal seems simple: to move forward and continue with life without the specter of past events weighing heavily upon her.
This narrative continues to unfold as more details emerge from a variety of sources, painting a complex picture of Fergie’s current state and actions in Zurich.
