Sarah Ferguson scrambling to find guests for Prince Andrew's 60th birthday
It seems like Prince Andrew could be facing a lonely 60th birthday as friends “shun” the royal amid the ongoing Epstein scandal.
The Duke of York will celebrate his big day at his and ex-wife Sarah Ferguson’s shared home in Windsor, Royal Lodge, where Andrew planned a lavish private dinner party.
But unlike his extravagant 50th party at St James’ palace – which had many rich and famous guests in attendance – this party is reported to be more intimate.
According to the Daily Mail, guests have said they’re “unavailable” to attend the party that Sarah had to invite a second round of guests to fill up seats.
It has been said that Andrew’s friends don’t want to associate themselves with the scandal that he is currently embroiled in since August last year.
Since then, he has been accused of having sex with an underage woman, Epstein’s alleged “sex slave” Virginia Giuffre.
The Duke also gave a “train wreck” BBC interview about Epstein which prompted huge public backlash, forcing him to “step back” from royal life and keep a low profile since.
