Description
Windsors & Losers is back! This season is about Sarah "Fergie" Ferguson, who is perhaps the most maligned modern royal. But in 1986 when Fergie married into the Windsor clan, she was hailed as the future of the monarchy: a confident, smiling, and up-for-anything country lass. She was just the sort to endear herself to the Queen — and the tabloids! But of course, the party didn't last long...In episode one of this season — which we are calling "Finding Fergie" — Eva and Allie go back to Fergie's formative years and dive into her seemingly cookie-cutter country upbringing (complete with ponies), her cad-ish and clueless polo playing dad, and her beautiful mother, who bolted from their home, and England, to marry an Argentine hunk.Editors' note: This episode was recorded before recent breaking royal news, including King Charles's cancer diagnosis. This episode was hosted and produced by Eva Wolchover and Allie Merriam. It was mixed by Kristin Mueller, with art by Tom Grillo.
