Overview
- New reporting says Ferguson discussed a 2023 reality show with Los Angeles producer Halcyon that explored cloning the late Queen’s Corgis for sale.
- A spokesperson for Ferguson says she declined the proposal, adding that third parties arranged the initial meetings and that the talks ended.
- No project followed, with the Daily Mirror and other outlets reporting the concept was not taken forward.
- Pet cloning is illegal in the U.K. but permitted in the U.S., where firms sell cloned dogs for tens of thousands of dollars and animal-welfare groups say the process causes suffering.
- The Mail on Sunday attributed the idea to a push for TV work and income, while a royal commentator called the notion grotesque and critics questioned the commercialization of royal pets.
