Is Sarah Ferguson friends with a sex offender?

Sarah and Crow are understood to have met once when she flew to the US to meet the £6 billion property magnate, reported The Sun. However, it was later revealed that the environmental philanthropist is facing a lawsuit from two women. These women claim that they were sexually abused by a ring he financed.

This comes after the Yorks and the Royal Family are already trying to get past Prince Andrew and his association with a sex abuse scandal. The lawsuit claims that the ring used doctors’ prescriptions to keep the women drugged.

Following the devastating news and claims, Fergie’s spokesperson said:

The Duchess has only met Mr Crow once with others to discuss environmental issues.

It is understood that she had no knowledge about the allegations and has no plans now to ever meet the man again in any capacity.

Here’s what Crow is accused of

According to the lawsuit, Crow has a vast network for his sex-trafficking ring and the establishment was pretty organised. The court document reads:

Crow maintained what he called lingerie rooms in each property he owned in which he kept a variety of lingerie for female guests to wear, as well as what he called ‘stripper shoes’.

Meanwhile, Crow’s lawyer Ken C Stone has ridiculed the claims and said the accusations were ‘absurd and blatantly false.’
