Princess Beatrice says Sarah Ferguson is ‘clear’ after cancer

-

Princess Beatrice says her mom Sarah Ferguson is in the “clear” after battling two types of cancer in the last year.

The 35-year-old daughter of Prince Andrew and the Duchess of York provided the update as a guest Monday on ITV’s “This Morning.”

“She’s doing really well,” Beatrice informed hosts Josie Gibson and Craig Doyle. “She’s had a bumpy health scare last year but, no, all clear now. At 64 she’s thriving.”

Ferguson revealed her diagnosis with “early form of breast cancer” in June 2023 for which she underwent a mastectomy and reconstruc­tive surgery. Then in January, the royal who was married to Andrew from 1986 to 1996, went public with her skin cancer diagnosis.

“She’s been through so much, but I think really now she’s coming into her own,” Beatrice said Monday. “We’re just reminded when any parent or individual has a health scenario, just really get the checks that you need to get, and as early as you possibly can. Both my sister and I are so proud of her for taking those steps to get those checks.”
