Where in the world is Sarah Ferguson? Turns out, she’s been hiding out in Austria amid calls for her to come clean about her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The former Duchess has been pictured in a small Austrian village known for its local luxury Alpine ski resort, where she is reportedly staying at a £2,000-a-night chalet.
The Sun published pictures of the mother-of-two emerging from a Mercedes people carrier on Wednesday, April 16, wearing a blue coat and keeping a low profile in a white baseball cap.
It has been 213 days since Sarah was last seen in public, when she attended the Duchess of Kent’s funeral in Westminster Cathedral on September 16, 2025. However, Sarah was last photographed on December 12, 2025 as she arrived at St James’s Palace for the christening of her granddaughter, Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi.
She was seen in the back of a car, but her face was not visible.
In the wake of published correspondence between Sarah and Jeffrey Epstein, and Andrew’s arrest, the former Duchess of York had been flying under the radar, even before her ex-husband Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s arrest.
Sarah lost more than just her courtesy title due to Andrew’s association with Jeffrey, as well as her own friendship with the convicted sex offender.
In recent months, she has been dropped as patron of multiple charities, including Julia’s House, a children’s hospice in Corfe Mullen, The Natasha Allergy Research Foundation, Prevent Breast Cancer, the Children’s Literacy Charity, and the British Heart Foundation.
Days after the U.S. Department of Justice released a new batch of Epstein documents in late January, Sarah’s charity, Sarah’s Trust, announced that it would be closing for the foreseeable future.
In September 2025, it was claimed that emails reportedly sent by Sarah to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein called him a “supreme friend”. The Sun and the Mail on Sunday both reported that the email, which dates back to 2011, was sent just weeks after the Duchess had publicly distanced herself from the disgraced financier.
