Sarah Ferguson is currently enjoying a summer holiday with the Queen in Balmoral, but will be forced to cut the trip short before Prince Philip arrives next week.

Fergie was looking forward to spending some quality time with the Queen, who traditionally holidays at the Scottish estate every summer. Queen Elizabeth is reportedly fond of her former daughter-in-law. Prince Philip however, has different feelings and it’s believed that Fergie will flee before he arrives at the castle next week.
The Duke of Edinburgh, 93, refuses to have her in the house. It is thought to be due to his confusion over his son, Prince Andrew’s, ongoing complicated relationship with his former wife. The pair continue to live together in the Duke of York’s Windsor home.

A source told British newspaper the Sun: “Prince Philip won’t have her in the house. He cannot understand why she’s living under the same roof as Andrew after all these years.
“Normally members of the royal family stay a week or two, but the Duchess has to cut short her stay”.

Many royals visit the Balmoral estate for getaways and Fergie has visited several times since her divorce in 1996. It is believed that last summer was the first time since then though that Fergie had been asked to stay in the main castle.
There has been previous speculation that the royal pair could remarry, but that it wouldn’t happen as long as Prince Philip opposed it. It is thought that Prince Philip has never forgiven Fergie for the embarrassment she cause the family in the 1990s with her affair and the infamous “toe sucking” photos.
