Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson were once called the ‘happiest divorced couple’ ever but new claims made by royal author Andrew Lownie have just destroyed any such sentiment.

For those unversed with who Mr Lownie is, he is the author of Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, the book that started the snowball of questions and accusations against the former Duke of York.

With his paperback edition of the book containing a brand new chapter out now, reports suggest the ‘bond’ they shared was nothing more than a hoax.

In his own words he says, “the idea of them being the happiest divorced couple was always a bit of a myth.”

Because the truth of the matter straight from the biographer himself is that Sarah “had her own set of apartments” at the opposite end of the house, “and although they did meet and speak on the phone, I don't think there was much contact.”

All in all “there was always this rather cynical idea that he was her calling-card for business and seeing members of the royal family,” Mr Lownie also went as far as to allege, when things came to Andrew.

But now with him being investigated for misconduct allegations, dating back to Ascot and the investigation expanding as well, there are warnings that Fergie may well choose to keep her distance from now on.

Before concluding Mr Lownie also said, “they were kind of joined together – them against the world – and that's now clearly fractured. I think she feels that he's toxic and that he’s going to destroy her branding opportunities, so it’s time to go off on her own.”
