On the latest episode of her 'Tea Talks' podcast, Sarah Ferguson opened up about her last conversation with Queen Elizabeth II before her passing.
While the passing of Queen Elizabeth II feels like it happened a century ago, it hasn't even a whole year, though Sept. 8 will mark the anniversary of her death. So, in a new episode of her podcast, , Sarah Ferguson shared a detail about her final encounter with the queen, saying that the monarch insisted that Ferguson continue to be herself and live her life the way she wanted.
Ferguson went on to explain that she knew Elizabeth was annoyed when she'd act disingenuously and, apparently, could see right through the act. "It's the last thing that the Queen said to me: 'Just be yourself, Sarah,'" Ferguson said. "And she saw it. She just got so annoyed when I wasn’t being myself. And that’s probably when I got into all the pickles. But now I am myself, and I’m just so lucky to be able to be myself."
Not long after Elizabeth's death, Ferguson — who famously adopted the queen's corgis after her passing— opened up about how the dynamics in the royal family changed in the wake of her death. During a conversation on , Fergie said she felt a bit of liberation without the pressure of pleasing the queen looming over her.
"I don't know whether it's the Queen passing that makes me think I can now openly say what I want to say without worrying I'm going to offend somebody," she said. "I'm really, truly authentic Sarah now."
