Sarah Ferguson on making a 'beautiful' gift for Grandmothers
In a video posted on her YouTube channel, the Duchess of York encouraged children to decorate their homes with colourful flowers – and afforded them a peek inside the grounds of the Royal Lodge, where Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie were raised. While their daughters have moved out of the country mansion to live with their husbands, 60-year-old Fergie and the Duke of York, 60, continue to reside at the property in Windsor Great Park.
In her latest video, the mother-of-two revealed a previously unseen area of the Royal Lodge.
She shot the video on a patio in a garden beside the house, seated at a wooden table.
Cobbled steps can be seen in the background leading up to a landscaped area with a flowerbed.
A patch of purple and white flowers can be seen growing in the Yorks’ patio which is fenced in with a wooden structure.
A sprawling green area with trees can be seen beyond the fence, giving fans an insight into the space where Bea, 32, and Eugenie, 30, played as children.
Eugenie, who now lives with her husband Jack Brooksbank, has in the past appeared in an episode of her mother’s “Storytime with Fergie and Friends” online channel.
The princess was seated at a personalised tree swing in her childhood garden which had been engraved with her name.
The Yorks moved into the Royal Lodge after the Queen Mother, who previously lived there, passed away in 2002.

The Grade II listed home is around three miles south of Windsor Castle, where the Queen spent the lockdown with Prince Philip.
Prince Andrew was granted a lease of the Royal Lodge in 2003 lasting 75 years.
Under the terms of the agreement by the Crown Estate, the lease may be assigned to his daughters if he passes away.

The house underwent extensive refurbishments before Andrew and his two girls moved in in 2004.
They had previously lived at Sunnyhill Park.
Fergie is understood to have moved into the property in 2008.
Meanwhile the Queen is said to be planning on making Windsor Castle her main home six months after she and the Duke of Edinburgh left Buckingham Palace to self-isolate at their Berkshire home.
The Sunday Times quoted a royal source as saying the 94-year-old would “commute” to London to carry out engagements if it is safe to do so.
The royal source said: “There is a desire to get Buckingham Palace up and running again as a working palace, but only if all the relevant advice suggests that it is appropriate to do so.”
The monarch is holidaying at her Scottish residence in Balmoral and was due to return to London in mid-October, as she does each year.
However, this week it emerged that the Queen and Philip plan to depart Balmoral three weeks ahead of schedule.
The couple will head to their five-bedroom property at Sandringham, where the royals usually spend Christmas, to enjoy the rest of their summer holiday.
