Fergie’s betrayal

A WOMAN who poured boiling water over her husband’s mistress has been convicted of GBH. If I’d been Monika Fourie wanting revenge over my philandering husband, I’d have been tempted to pour it over him.

YOU’D have thought that having had welldocumented affairs while married to Prince Andrew, Fergie would have had more sympathy when she discovered her dog walker was having her own dalliance with Andrew’s butler.

Amanda Severn was dismissed with two weeks’ pay, about £500. Ms Severn feels betrayed, not just by the butler who’d led her to believe he was separated from his wife, but by Fergie: ‘She has shown no loyalty to me. I am not happy.’

Callousness apart, what a stupid move on Fergie’s part. The ex- employee has already let slip Fergie grandly insists she is called ‘Ma’am’ or ‘Your Royal Highness’ — neither of which she is entitled to — and still ‘rules the roost at the Duke’s home’.

Ms Severn clearly has stories to tell — and what’s the betting they’re worth more than the £500 the Yorks gave her?
