Sarah Ferguson isn’t holding any grudges against King Charles and the royal family for not inviting her to the coronation next month.
The Duchess of York, 63, was snubbed from attending the big event on May 6, despite still living with her ex-husband Prince Andrew.
While promoting her novel, “A Most Intriguing Lady,” on the TV program “Loose Women,” she addressed the diss, saying she will watch the crowning at home with her corgis, Muick and Fergus, which she adopted after Queen Elizabeth died.
“I personally will be having a little tea room and coronation chicken sandwich and putting out the bunting,” she said, according to Hello! Magazine.
“That’s what I’m going to be doing. Because that would make me very happy,” the author went on, adding that she’s more than content to watch it on television because “you hear a lot on the telly.”
Fergie then admitted that she likes the royal commentators on the miniscreen and loves to listen to their observations during the event.
However, she understands that because she is divorced from the Duke of York, 63, she never “expected” to receive an invite.
“You can’t have it both ways, you can’t be divorced and then say, ‘I want this…’ [You’re in] or you’re out,” the mother of two noted. “I think it’s really great to be supportive big time.”
Fergie stated that she plans to take the dogs, some sandwiches and the bunting — a string of brightly-colored flags — to an elderly people’s home in her “little van” on the day.
Despite the “Young Victoria” producer not going to the big bash, she will be reuniting with members of the royal family for a private party later in the evening, a source told Hello! Magazine.
An insider confirmed to Us Weekly, on Thursday that Charles, 74, “did not invite Fergie to the coronation.”
However, her daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie will be attending alongside Andrew.
The Yorks were married in 1986 but parted ways in 1992. They officially divorced in 1996 and Fergie’s position within the family became contentious following a bout of royal scandals.
Another source told the Independent earlier this week that Fergie wants the coronation day to be all about the King and his wife, Camilla.
“She has been hugely supportive of Charles and Camilla and does not want this to become about her,” a friend close to Fergie said.
They explained: “The whole day is about the new King and the success of his reign but she has always championed the royal family and the Queen undoubtedly would have wanted her to be there.”
The news of Fergie’s coronation invitation rebuff came just a day after it was announced that Prince Harry will be traveling to the United Kingdom for the crowning without wife Meghan Markle.
The former actress, 41, will be staying home in Montecito, Calif. with her children Lilibet and Archie — as it is the latter’s fourth birthday on May 6.
