Schofield said the show could go down well with Americans.
“His roommate and ex-wife is looking for a talk show in the States”, she said.
“All I can say is, haven’t we suffered enough? She would like a sit down talk show, like Oprah Winfrey.
“I think people would actually watch this. Fergie is really engaging and she has a great sense of humour.

“She has great contacts too.”
GB News host Mark Dolan waded in on the discussion by adding that he is a “fan” of the Duchess, praising her endearing personality.
He asked Schofield whether the Duke and Duchess of York could remarry.
“I would hope so. Wouldn’t that be the ultimate dream?”, she said.
King Charles wants his brother Prince Andrew to move out of the Royal Lodge and move into Frogmore Cottage.PA“That would be a love movie I would watch on repeat.”
She added that Andrew’s image may be “rehabilitated” should they reconcile.
It comes amid a dispute between Andrew and his brother, King Charles, over the Duke’s living status.
The monarch is pushing for the Duke to downsize by moving out of Royal Lodge into the intimate more setting at Frogmore Cottage, but Andrew is reportedly not willing to budge.
Fergie is said to be keen on helping to bankroll £2million worth of essential maintenance work at Royal Lodge in a move that could strengthen Andrew’s hold on the property.
A source told the Mail: “It’s true Sarah wants to help Andrew stay in what she considers their family home.
“She lives at Royal Lodge when she’s in the UK. It’s very much their family’s base.
“Andrew has lost so much. She will do everything she can to help him keep the house, even though it may prove untenable in the long term.”
Kinsey Schofield told Mark Dolan that she is supportive of Andrew remaining at the royal residence, despite Charles’ apparent opposition.
“I understand a lot of people want Prince Andrew out of Royal Lodge, but I think the Queen would be happy with where he is at the moment”, she said.
The Prince was stood down from his royal duties after Virginia Roberts claimed she was sex-trafficked to him by convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
Andrew has vigorously denied all allegations.
He settled a civil lawsuit in America brought by Roberts for a reported £12million but admitted no liability.
