Sarah Ferguson Wears 'Never Complain, Never Explain' Shoes Amid New Royal Biography Claims

Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, made a notable fashion statement amid ongoing rumors of infidelity linked to her and her ex-husband Prince Andrew by wearing custom blue velvet loafers emblazoned with the Royal Family's unofficial motto, 'Never complain, never explain,' at a London book signing event for her 2021 novel, Her Heart for a Compass. The shoes, which she has worn before, symbolize the royal tradition of handling criticism with quiet dignity. This public appearance coincides with the forthcoming release of Andrew Lownie's explosive biography, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, which contains allegations of extramarital affairs involving Ferguson and details of Andrew's purported unfaithfulness and personal misconduct. Ferguson's choice of footwear appears to be a deliberate response to the media scrutiny and the book's revelations, as she shared photos of the event on Instagram, emphasizing her novel's message of bridging hearts and generations. The biography has also sparked denials from Prince Harry’s team regarding claims of a physical altercation with Prince Andrew. Overall, Ferguson's sartorial message highlights a royal coping mechanism amid the intensified spotlight on the House of York.
