Sarah Ferguson has suffered a fresh blow after her new children’s book was quietly removed from sale.
Flora And Fern: Kindness Along The Way was originally scheduled for release on October 9, but the title was delayed, with a revised publication date being listed on Amazon as November 20, but now the listing has been removed altogether.
Analytics firm NielsenIQ Book Data confirmed that the title has now been officially marked as “withdrawn from sale” at the request of the publisher.
The book was the latest in the series created by Sarah, who has published over 70 books, including Budgie the Little Helicopter and Little Red for children and the romantic novel Her Heart for a Compass for adults.

The news comes after King Charles took the unprecedented decision to remove Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor from his royal titles, over the former duke’s link with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
At the time, a source revealed to Hello that Ms Ferguson is comfortable with her ex-husband’s decision: “She will always support her former husband's decisions and do anything for the King. For her, this will not make a big difference.”
The fresh setback comes after Ms Ferguson’s friends have claimed that she is planning to relocate to Portugal in January, with accommodation being arranged at her daughter Princess Eugenie’s property.
The former duchess will reportedly stay at the £3.6million villa owned by Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank.
Sources indicate a guest suite is being readied for her arrival at the residence in Melides, 82 miles south of Lisbon.
A resident of the gated community told the Express: “The word here is that Fergie will be arriving sometime in January.

“How long she'll stay is anyone's guess, but if it's a long-term move, I can guarantee she'll fit well into the social scene.
“Scores of celebrities and Hollywood stars have been snapping up properties in the area.”
Princess Eugenie and her husband bought the property in May 2022, splitting their time between Portugal and Ivy Cottage at Kensington Palace.
