Of cruel jibes got Duchess of York’s goat

said 82 per cent would rather sleep with a goat than Fergie. It’s never left me.

“I do believe that, in the 30 years of my public life, many people believe what they read. They are going to have this judgment of me.” Fergie – a former Weight Watchers ambassador – was once nicknamed “The Duchess of Pork” after her weight ballooned through binge eating.

Speaking on a podcast with TV presenter Emma Forbes, the Duchess said: “Now I’m used to it, but it’s very soul-destroying when you walk into a room and know most people will walk out and say, ‘Oh, we never realised you’re actually really interesting or you’re passionate about charity work’.” She also revealed where the door to her heart is.

“I love chocolates and flowers and having the car door opened for me,” she said. “I’m happy to say that I’m a real feminine woman.”
