US EditionSarah Ferguson's charity to close after Epstein revelations
Sarah Ferguson's charity closes after months of deliberation triggered by emails showing ongoing contact with Epstein post-conviction, despite delivering aid to over 200 children, trustees said.
- On Monday evening, Sarah's Trust announced it will shortly close 'for the foreseeable future,' after 'some months' of discussion, a spokesman said.
- Amid the document release, papers show the US Department of Justice published over three million files last week, including emails linking Ferguson to Epstein after his 2008 conviction.
- Documents include 2009–2011 correspondence showing Sarah Ferguson seeking business advice for Mothers Army and discussing PR with publicist Mike Sitrick after Epstein's 2008 conviction.
- Sarah's Trust highlighted its humanitarian work while charities note reputational fallout, having partnered with over 60 charities across over 20 countries and delivered over 150,000 aid parcels during the Covid pandemic, though Ferguson was dropped by several charities last year.
- The disclosures broaden the story to royal connections and public fallout, as the Epstein files include images of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, former Duke of York, who was stripped of his titles last year; appearing in the files does not imply guilt, but reputational damage has followed.
