Andrew, Sarah Ferguson accepted money for private tour of Buckingham Palace: New report claims
Andrew and Sarah reportedly opened Buckingham’s gates to businessmen from crypto firm
A fresh bombshell claim has alleged that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and Sarah Ferguson once accepted financial compensation up to a million in exchange for a private tour of Buckingham Palace.
In a transaction uncovered by the BBC, the tour was arranged in 2019 — during Queen Elizabeth’s reign — and resulted in the disgraced couple earning £1.4m from Jay Bloom and Michael Evers, businessmen from the cryptocurrency mining firm called Pegasus Group Holdings.
The outlet further reported, “Mr. Bloom, an entrepreneur who had previously set up a failed Mafia-themed museum in Las Vegas, and Mr. Evers, a former actor, were met by a greeter and escorted inside the palace.”
Moreover, while Evers told the news corporation that the pair had met the Queen, his colleague refuted the claim. It is also crucial to highlight that the company, co-founded by Bloom, had previously employed Sarah “as a ‘brand ambassador’ for a crypto-mining scheme which would lose investors millions when it failed less than a year later.”
Meanwhile, Andrew remains entangled in the formal procedure of his royal titles’ removal, which was announced by the Palace on October 30.
