Sarah Ferguson Faces Growing Pressure to Testify in Epstein Investigation
Sarah Ferguson, the former Duchess of York, is facing increasing demands from U.S. lawmakers to provide testimony regarding her connections to Jeffrey Epstein. Congressman Suhas Subramanyam and Congresswoman Melanie Stansbury have both called for her to give sworn evidence to the House Oversight Committee. The family of Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre has also urged her to appear. Recent document releases by the U.S. Department of Justice revealed emails showing Ferguson's correspondence with Epstein, including messages sent while he was incarcerated. Ferguson has maintained a low public profile in recent months, with speculation about potential media interviews and memoir deals. Her charity, Sarah's Trust, has announced plans to close, and she has stepped back from her role as ambassador for the Youth Impact Council.
