Britain’s Daily Mail says the billionaire media mogul, Oprah Winfrey, who is launching her own cable channel, the Oprah Winfrey Network, next January, reportedly has called Ferguson last week to arrange a deal and offered Sarah Ferguson for her very own TV show.
“Oprah made the call this week,” a source told the newspaper. They spoke in person and, for Sarah, the offer is a ray of light at the end of a very dark tunnel.
Oprah has known Sarah for some time and the Duchess went on Oprah’s show to explain herself after her most recent scandal.Oprah has always been impressed by Sarah’s ability to pick herself up and reinvent herself. Oprah said, “She feels Sarah will be someone viewers of her new channel will be able to relate to on many levels, she’s a divorcee, a working mother, someone who has made some very public mistakes and a woman who, like Oprah, constantly battles with her weight."
Oprah was impressed by Sarah’s ability to face up to her errors and to apologize publicly for them. Americans love people who reinvent themselves and Oprah believes Sarah can do that on the new network.
Sarah also believes her chances of finding meaningful work in Britain are negligible and she has always felt more accepted in America. And said, “The idea would be for her to be based in New York so that she could return to England regularly to see the Princesses. At the end of the day she needs to earn a living.”
Sarah was left red-faced earlier this year when was caught on video accepting money in exchange for a promise of business access to her ex-husband, Prince Andrew, who is a British trade representative.
