A source close to Sarah Ferguson has spoken out against allegations involving Sean “Diddy” Combs and the Duchess of York’s daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
The claims appeared in Andrew Lownie’s book, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, which examines the lives and controversies surrounding Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew.
In the book, Lownie cites a former employee of Combs’ Bad Boy Records who alleged that the rapper had been fascinated by the Royal Family and made inappropriate comments about Ferguson and her daughters. Beatrice and Eugenie were minors during the period referenced in the account.
The allegation gained further attention alongside separate claims made by Combs’ former security chief, who suggested that the rapper and Ferguson may have shared a particularly close relationship.
However, a source said to be close to Ferguson has now firmly rejected the claims.
Speaking anonymously to Newsweek, the source described the allegations as completely fabricated and untrue, accusing Lownie of making another false claim about the Duchess.
A representative for Combs has also denied the allegation, previously dismissing it as baseless gossip.
What Did Diddy’s Former Security Chief Say?
The former security chief discussed Ferguson during an interview with Spotlight on 7NEWS.
He said Combs had described the Duchess as a friend, but claimed the rapper’s expression suggested there may have been more to the relationship. He did not provide direct evidence to support that interpretation.
Neither Ferguson nor Combs has publicly confirmed that they had a romantic or intimate relationship. The allegations remain disputed, with representatives and sources connected to both sides rejecting key parts of the account.
