Sarah, Duchess of York has been doing some major press this week, all in the name of her charity Street Child, which aims to give vulnerable children around the world an education.
It’s obviously very noble work and as Fergie said, it has helped her keep her “feet on the ground”.
Speaking to the Press Association, she said it made her realise how lucky her daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie were to have an education – and candidly spoke about their disabilities.
“[It’s] kept me realising how lucky that my children – Eugenie, as you now know, is disabled with one inch metal rods down her back, Beatrice is dyslexic with special needs at school – and yet they had an education.
“So why isn’t any other child allowed that same luxury? And why is it a luxury?”
Beatrice was diagnosed with dyslexia at age seven and spoke about the condition in a podcast for the Helen Arkell Dyslexia Centre in 2016.
“I remember one of my earliest memories was sitting in front of a Beatrix Potter book and the illustrations were so beautiful but the words meant nothing.
“I was put into specialist classes and I remember the teacher looking at me and saying, ‘Why do you keep looking at me, the words are not written on my face’.”
She said being diagnosed was the best thing to happen to her.
“Being diagnosed with dyslexia was the greatest thing that ever happened to me because it allowed me to become part of this community of people that really are championing young people’s education and making sure that we protect our young people in school and in life.”

Fergie pretending that she cares about others who aren't as privileged as her and her ilk, what a joke. It's a scam and the money is for her because she has to draw a salary and expenses of course, so as usual with "charities" or "non profits" all the money will go to "overhead" (which means salaries/benefits/possibly pensions), with barely 1% maybe going to "help others less fortunate" than her precious angels.
And her saying that this "work" has helped her realize how "lucky" she is is the epitome of ARROGANCE and makes me want to scream. So that means she's never noticed this glaring discrepancy until now that she's practically a granny??? Notice how she smugly tells us BASIC MEDICAL NEEDS and an EDUCATION for a child is a "LUXURY." She fails to note the reason it really IS a luxury for us peons is because the greedy royals, government bureaucracies, globalists etc have grabbed everything up for themselves while knowing full well there is plenty to go around for everyone!
Sorry, I don't buy this entitled hogwash and will call it like is: It's all just a bid for attention, photo ops and most of all a money grab and is so transparent as to be laughable. I think I've read in the past she's had shortage of money problems.
Wait, there was nothing said about being ginger!?
