The spokesperson further conveyed her thanks to all the medical staff involved in her treatment and the professionals who did her mammogram screening.

Sarah Ferguson Gives First Comments

In the fourth episode of her podcast with Sarah Jane Thomson, the Duchess of York opened up about her feelings after being diagnosed with breast cancer and conveyed an important message to the listeners.

Before talking about the day she went for her regular mammogram screening, Ferguson revealed that her father passed away after battling prostate cancer and that he urged everyone to get it checked.

While talking about his diagnosis, Ferguson revealed how his friends reacted upon hearing the news. "No one wants to hear from you, Ronald," his friends said, according to Ferguson.

She said she wouldn't be bothered if people reacted the same way after learning about her condition. All she wanted was for people to go for a mammogram screening to be on the safe side. She said:

"I want every single person that is listening to this podcast to go get checked. Go get screened."

After urging her listeners, Ferguson discussed what happened on her screening day. She recalled not wanting to go because it was hot, but her sister insisted. Ferguson said she could have delayed the screening to the following week, but it was because of her sister that she learned about her breast cancer.

After her successful surgery, she rests surrounded by her family, but one of her friends said, "It's been a difficult time" for her. Regardless, Ferguson thanked the people involved in her treatment and early detection.

The Duchess of York received her title after tying the knot with her ex-husband Prince Andrew in 1986. Their marriage ended ten years later, but they still live together and have a good relationship.
