Overview
- York City Council, which voted unanimously Thursday, revoked Ferguson’s Freedom of the City, a ceremonial civic honor she received in 1987.
- Councillors cited newly released U.S. Justice Department records that include emails in which she called Jeffrey Epstein a “best friend” or “legend” and contacted him while he was jailed in 2008.
- The files also describe a lunch in Miami with her daughters soon after Epstein’s release, details that have intensified calls for an explanation.
- U.S. Representative Suhas Subramanyam sent a letter Thursday asking Ferguson to testify about her ties to Epstein and to respond by April 9, including any knowledge related to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
- Several charities have ended or paused ties with Ferguson, Sarah’s Trust is on hold, and she has not been seen in public since December 2025 with her current whereabouts unconfirmed.
