Summary
Sarah Ferguson is expected back in Britain shortly and could move into a rented six-bedroom gated home in the Home Counties as soon as next week, according to reports.
The move follows her October departure from Royal Lodge in Windsor and months largely out of public view, with reports placing her at an Alpine chalet in Verbier, Switzerland.
Her belongings were collected this week from Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's Sandringham home, signaling the return is now imminent rather than speculative.
The retreat from public life came after scrutiny of her links to Jeffrey Epstein intensified, including 2011 emails released last year; the documents indicated no wrongdoing, and a spokesperson said one apology email was sent to head off a defamation suit.
The scandal also cost Ferguson her courtesy title and York honor, while Andrew lost his titles over what the King called serious lapses of judgment.
