Personally, I look at this with comparison to the 'cash for honors' ordeal.  She SHOULD have her title revoked, and there should be an investigation to see just how many people she has douped so far. She should be exiled for a period of time from England. |

What does her title have to do with this? Why should it be revoked? Because she's naive and got taken advantage of by NOTW? Sheesh, should Prince Charles have had his title revoked during Camilla-gate? Or Prince Philip every time he says something non-PC? What is the difference?
I doubt that her daughters or Prince Andrew would allow her to be exiled. This isn't the same situation as the Duke of Windsor being exiled. She's not a threat to the monarchy.
Maybe, if anything she should be banned from doing business unless it's on her own turf and the person she's meeting has been searched thoroughly for a camera and microphone. Though with her track record, even that might not be enough to prevent her from doing something naive and foolish again. But as long as she doesn't involve Prince Andrew or the rest of the royal family, what difference does that make?

Fergie's remaining title should be held in honor. She got caught! She is still Sarah, Duchess of York, and as such, MUST use her title and her relationship with the Royal Family with respect and should not use it in exploitation. That is not why the Royal Family exists.
Also, Prince Philip NEVER sold his relationship with the Queen, so don't even compare the two. If a common person were caught selling time with a Royal, they would be in jail or fined. This is why people dislike the monarchy.

But given that Philip is the Queen's consort, how is he holding his title in honor when he says something foolish and makes the royal family look bad. Or Prince Charles for that matter. As the eldest son and heir to the throne, does he not have an honor to not do foolish things either? Please don't tell me that the royals don't exploit their own titles either. Seriously, how far do you think any of them would get without them? Do you really think anyone would listen to Prince Charles' views on architecture otherwise? Or are they just politely listening for the honor? |
