The Duchess of York launched an extraordinary defence of her former husband Prince Andrew today, describing him as 'the greatest man there is'.
Sarah Ferguson appeared in public for the first time since the Duke of York was accused of having sex with an under-age girl in a US court.
The Duchess has kept a low profile at the luxury Swiss ski chalet where she has been holidaying with Andrew and their younger daughter Eugenie.
But today she emerged from the £22,000-a-week chalet and went for a mountain walk dressed in black sportswear.
Asked by the Daily Mail if she was sticking by the Duke, she replied: ‘The York family is a tight unit. We’ve always been a tight unit.
‘He is the greatest man there is. It was the finest moment of my life in 1986 when I married him. He is a great man, the best man in the world.’

Other than, of course, those times we were screwing around on each other.
I am proud of their daughters today. She is sticking up for her ex husband. That is a wonderful thing. The charges are bunk anyway. I always liked her and like her more today.
Andy was Randy!
The royals have been rumored to be immoral pigs for years. I had a decent impression of Andrew and his family. This seems to be more than smoke.
No girl wants to hear his dad is spending time with girls younger than they.
They did it in a U.S. Court???
Wasn't she supposed to be broke? Maybe the Royals have a different definition than I do.
Just listening to Rush the bigger name floating around this sex scandal is good ol Billy Clinton. Sex scandals and Bill Clinton go together like peanut butter and jelly.
You caught that, too! HA
“...the Duke of York was accused of having sex with an under-age girl in a US court.”
Talk about risky locations!
If he had sex with an under-aged girl in a U.S. court wouldn’t there be witnesses?
;-)
Our elite media. LOL
It was a tight unit alright.
Sorta difficult to miss that one...
If he is the “greatest man there is” then why is he her ex?

Whoa
From what I understand they are living together and sort of re-married in all but name.
One thing that should cast some suspicion on the accusations is that the gal claims that she met the queen herself. Highly unlikely. The Duke would not have brought her around to meet mummy.
