Fergie's ex move
Aug 28, 2007, 13:04 GMT
Britain's Sarah Ferguson has brought a house next door to her ex-husband Prince Andrew.
The Duchess of York has had an offer accepted for Dolphin House, which is situated just yards from Andrew's Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park.
Her move comes after she moved out of the pair's former marital home located in Sunningdale Park, in Berkshire - which was recently sold for £6 million to a Kazakh tycoon.
A source said: "Everyone assumed Fergie would buy a plush home in West London.
"No-one dreamed she would buy the house next door to the prince. I mean, of all the houses in all the world, she has to move next to him. All his staff are stunned."
Another source claims the duchess will now attempt to make use of her ex-husband's staff, telling Britain's The Sun newspaper: "There's absolutely no doubt in their mind that they will be doing her laundry and cooking."
Andrew and Sarah divorced in 1996 after 10 years of marriage, but have remained close.
They even continued to share separate wings of Sunningdale Park until Andrew moved to Royal Lodge in 2004, where he now lives with their daughters Beatrice, 19, and Eugenie, 17.

I realize that the Duke and Duchess have remained friends all these years for the sake of the princesses but ... the poor man cannot escape her! I expect that her excuse will be that she wants to be close to the girls but does she not understand that a divorce does mean that her life is hers and his life is his. The lack of privacy would drive me crazy even if my ex-husband was my 'bestest friend'. Give the man a break. The house is bought now so I suppose he is stuck with her until death does them part or she finds someone who can make her willing to give up her title which is her meal-ticket. It is really sad in many ways.
