Sarah Ferguson has finally spilled some royal tea at age 64, and it’s all about parenting! Yes, Duchess Fergie had some strong lessons for her daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, who weren’t allowed any “complaining and moaning.”
“They were born to learn about charity, they were born to give,” Fergie explained. She emphasized that she raised both princesses to be empathetic and giving, which introduced them to charity from an early age.
But the best part is her unique education method: when The Duchess wanted to end whining from Eugenie, now 34, or Beatrice, now 35, she would have them experience a little discomfort. Here’s what she did:
“If they were complaining and moaning, I’d put them outside in the freezing cold.”
Then, she would change their perspective by saying, “Well, imagine what it’s like if you’re in the middle of nowhere with no coat and never can get a coat,” ending their complaints about little things, for example fighting over watching a Barbie movie or something else.
And just like that, Fergie showed these princesses how privileged they are, and how they can ultimately use their privilege for good!
