Like the late Princess Diana, Ferguson had a reputation for refusing to be held back by royal tradition. She has also expressed her support for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who invited her to their 2018 wedding after she did not receive an invite to Prince William and Duchess Kate‘s nuptials.

“I know what Meghan is going through,” she told Vogue Australia in December 2019, referring to the 39-year-old’s battles with the British press. “It must be hard for Meghan, and I can relate to her. I believe she is modern and fabulous. She was famous before. She is great. Why can’t Meghan be great? Why can’t she be celebrated? … I have been in Meghan’s shoes, and I still am. There’s always a twist of negativity and it just gets so sad and tiring; it’s hard and mean.”
