Sarah Ferguson shares major update as she spends time in clinic: 'Mental health touches us all'

Sarah Ferguson has shared a major update after she spent time in a clinic known for its discreet, bespoke care for those facing complex mental health and addiction challenges.

Taking to Instagram, Sarah shared a photo with a meaningful statement.

Princess Eugenie and Beatrice mother says, “Mental health touches us all - it has no boundaries. We need to promote open conversations about mental health and how we can improve access to mental healthcare across society.”

She added, “I recently spent time at @paracelsusrecovery in Zurich, a clinic known for its discreet, bespoke care for those facing complex mental health and addiction challenges, to learn more. What I found was not only a centre of clinical excellence, but a place of deep humanity.”

Prince Andrew’s former wife, who recently visited Peru, also shared a sweet advice saying, “If you or someone you know is struggling, I encourage you to seek help. You are not alone, and there is no shame in taking the steps towards healing.”

Meanwhile, writing for The Telegraph, Sarah describes “the profound scars” of her childhood that “led to feelings of unworthiness [that] contributed to an unhealthy attitude to food that often threatened to spiral into a full-scale eating disorder”.

According to the publication, in her own heartrending words, the Duchess York reveals the impact public ridicule and her abandonment by her mother had on her mental health.
