Sarah Ferguson has reportedly taken a huge decision about where she will be living after vacating the Royal Lodge,

According to GB News, the Duchess of York is planning to live on her own rather than moving in with any of her daughters.

An insider told the publication that Fergie has ruled out joining Princess Eugenie in Portugal or staying near Princess Beatrice’s home in the Cotswolds.

They revealed that Andrew’s ex-wife is instead looking for a private place of her own. 

Meanwhile, another report claimed that Ferguson may move to Australia with her sister’s help but her fear of snakes could hold her back.

Sources told Radar Online that Fergie has long liked the idea of living there but is genuinely scared of Australia’s wildlife.

The source said Ferguson has had a difficult time since she and ex-husband Andrew lost their royal roles and titles and a resurfaced 2011 email showing she called convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein a “supreme friend.”

Now, her older sister, Jane Ferguson Luedecke, who lives in Australia, allegedly offered help to her during her recent trip to UK.

“But the way her situation is now, with no money and no royal home, a shift to Australia with her sister could be inevitable," an insider told the publication.

"The irony is that she wants to escape far away, but the thought of Australia's wildlife genuinely terrifies her – she finds it petrifying."
