Sarah Ferguson sparked backlash with a glaring error in her tribute to Queen Elizabeth II.
The Duchess of York, 64, took to her various social media profiles to wish Her Late Majesty a happy birthday, as she would have celebrated her 98th birthday today.
However, Fergie, as the duchess is affectionately known, did not use the correct age in her post.
She wrote: "Today we are remembering Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on what would have been her 97th birthday.

However, others came out in defence of Princess Beatrice and Eugenie's mother, insisting it was a typo.
One person said: "To all those correcting Sarah Ferguson, I'm sure she knows exactly how old HM Queen Elizabeth would have been. It can only be a typo."
Sarah previously described the late monarch as her "total idol".
