On March 12, the Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, could make a surprise appearance at the 95th annual Academy Awards telecast, where she is rumoured to be presenting on behalf of her late friend, Lisa Marie Presley.
The acclaimed biopic “Elvis,” directed by Baz Luhrmann, is nominated for eight Academy Awards, including Best Actor, Best Picture, and Best Sound.
The source stated that there have been discussions about the Duchess attending, and it now looks like it will happen.
The insider added that Fergie has been a close friend of the Presley family, particularly Elvis’ daughter, Lisa Marie and that she spoke at her funeral recently.
Ferguson made an emotional appearance at Presley’s memorial in January, sparking discussions about the possibility of her attending the Oscars.
The source added that it is a big deal for the Duchess to be there, but it is also a big deal for America as it is likely to play a significant role in her future after the problems she faced in the UK in recent years.
Sarah Ferguson and Lisa Marie Presley’s friendship became public in 2009, following the death of Michael Jackson, Presley’s ex-husband.
Presley had reportedly resided at Ferguson’s villa in Marbella, Spain, to grieve the loss. The songwriter also attended Fergie’s 50th birthday bash in London in 2009 and her daughter Princess Beatrice’s 21st birthday party.
