Priscilla Presley responds to rumours Sarah Ferguson has been staying with her

A spokesperson for Priscilla Presley has spoken out, shutting down rumours that Sarah Ferguson has been staying with her following her eviction from the Royal Lodge.

Speculation had been swirling in recent weeks that the embattled former royal, who had been close with Priscilla's late daughter Lisa Marie Presley, had turned to "friends" for help with accommodation.

But Ferguson, according to a statement, has not been laying low at Priscilla's lodgings – as fallout from her and former Prince Andrew's involvement with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein continues to mount.

Speaking exclusively to People, Priscilla's rep has since dismissed these claims as "totally false," while a spokesperson for Sarah Ferguson has declined to comment.

This comes after reports from Page Six indicated that Ferguson, 66, had been staying with various friends, including Presley.

Per the report, she'd been forced to rely on those closest to her for accommodation, after King Charles stripped Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor of his royal titles.

While Ferguson has not been accused of any wrongdoing in connection with her relationship to Epstein, she has not evaded the backlash to befall her ex-husband.

Ferguson and Presley have long shared a personal connection through Lisa Marie Presley, with Ferguson having referred to her as "sissy" in a tribute following her death in 2023.

Ferguson also spoke at Lisa Marie's memorial service at Graceland later that month, stating that "grief is the price we pay for love," – a quote from her former mother-in-law Queen Elizabeth.

Further reports from Page Six have indicated that Ferguson's alleged "struggle" to find accommodation comes down to her connections with Epstein – and friends' unwillingness to be associated with the name as public scrutiny mounts.

"Everyone's telling her that now's not a good time," an insider told Page Six about Ferguson.

"A lot of people actually really like her, but being associated with anyone associated with Epstein just isn't wise right now."

Fergie's whereabouts have been something of a mystery in recent months, with the royal last seen publicly in December of last year.

Her current location remains unclear, though reports suggested she planned to spend time overseas as she considered her next moves.
