“Sarah is in a really good position right now,” the source told the outlet. “Thankfully, her health seems to be getting better and she seems to have worked her way into the good graces of the royal family.”
The insider noted that Fergie us no longer a working royal but she still has a number of projects that have the “royals’ blessings.” Moreover, she has a much more active role within the firm now than she’s had in years as “there’s a lot of respect for her right now.”
“Since she’s always been warm and kind towards the Sussexes, even if she has said occasional things about them that they’d rather she didn’t, they’re now looking to her as someone that can help them break down some barrier,” the insider dished.
Meghan and Harry have “zeroed in on” her and they have sent her messages and gifts. The response from Sarah has been “very positive” so they feel “hopeful that she could be key ally.”
