Sarah, Duchess of York met Diana when they were both teenagers and before they married into the royal family. Both marriages ended in divorce. Sarah told People, “We promised each other we would always be together – there was never any daylight between us. But everybody wanted that because we were so strong together. People want to break something so strong.”
She said they were besties and that she used the affectionate nickname, Duch, for Diana.

Sarah is mother to two daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. Her interview with People includes gracing the cover of the magazine.
