The palace also confirmed Eugenie's pregnancy in a delightful statement.

Following this development, a royal expert, citing the insiders, has claimed in the new biography that Sarah and Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs had a ‘friends with benefits’ arrangement.

In his book, Andrew Lownie alleges that Diddy and Ferguson first met in 2002 at a party thrown by Ghislaine Maxwell.

Following this meeting, in 2004, the insiders claimed Sarah and Diddy had a ‘secret friends with benefits’ relationship that continued for several years.

The excerpt of the book has been published by the Daily Mail.

The royal expert further claims that Sarah also introduced daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice to Combs.

Furthermore, the book alleges that Sarah took Eugenie to one of Combs parties when she was 16-years-old.

An insider told Andrew Lownie for the book, "Sean’s parties were wild. The fact that she brought Eugenie around was alarming.”

Amid these allegations, the source close to Sarah Ferguson has claimed the former Duchess of York denies these false allegations.

The close confidant says Sarah denies the allegations.

The insider said, “This is absolute fabricated nonsense, blatantly untrue and yet another false allegation from him.”
