Sarah Ferguson Says Princess Diana Would Be Proud Of These Royals

Sarah Ferguson has told People what she thinks Princess Diana would say about William and Harry if she saw what they were up to now! The Duchess of York feels Diana "would be very proud of her sons and their wives," referring to both Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle. "If she were sitting with me right now," Sarah said, I know she would say, 'I am so proud of both of my boys and the wonderful wives they have chosen.'"

Prince William and Duchess Kate were wed at Westminster Abbey in April 2011, while Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan married in May 2018 at St George's Chapel. Sarah Ferguson believes there's one particular trait that Princess Diana would have loved about her sons' partners— the fact that "each has got her own voice." Both Kate and Meghan are strong advocates for the causes they believe in, frequently speaking out.

Sarah Ferguson also believes that Princess Diana's love for her family would extend into the next generation as well because of how much the royal adored children! "And she would be just like me, obsessed with her grandchildren," Sarah told People. "Because that's what she loved." William and Kate have three kids— Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Harry and Meghan have two children of their own— son Archie and their newest addition, daughter Lilibet.

Sarah also briefly reflected on the special bond that she and Diana shared, since the two knew each other growing up as teenage girls! She mentioned that her special nickname for Diana was "Duch," and said that they had been "best friends" during that stage of life.

Sarah Ferguson also credited her old friend Princess Diana with showing her the ropes when it came to society! She said that the Princess of Wales had "taught me so much of public life," and said the two "used to have the most incredible time together." Since Sarah was so close to Diana, she would certainly be someone who knows what Harry and William's mother would think of her sons today!
