EXCLUSIVE: Jeffrey Epstein Shame Returns! Andrew Windsor's Ex Sarah Ferguson Spiraling After Losing Lavish Royal Life Over Connections to Sick Pedo

Frazzled Sarah Ferguson – Britain's former Duchess of York – may be on the verge of a full‑on breakdown after losing her cherished royal title, social standing and lucrative business opportunities due to her and ex‑husband Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor's friendship with dead pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, RadarOnline.com can reveal.

"She is leaning on trusted staff members," shares British broadcaster Helena Chard. "Her nerves are frayed."

In recent years, Fergie, 66, has reinvented herself as a children's book author. But her scheduled November release – Flora and Fern: Kindness Along the Way – was reportedly yanked at the 11th hour by its publisher amid her and 65‑year‑old Ex-Prince Andrew's ongoing scandal, and sources say the humiliation is only adding to her angst.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, King Charles recently removed his troublemaker brother Andrew's titles – including that of prince and Duke of York – and ordered him to vacate Royal Lodge, the crown‑owned home he's long shared with Fergie despite their 1996 divorce.

However, Andrew's revocation also means that Ferguson has lost the right to her courtesy title of duchess.

The drastic move came more than three years after the late Queen Elizabeth stripped Andrew of his official duties and palace paycheck following the filing of a blockbuster civil suit against him from Epstein sex slave Virginia Giuffre, who claimed the randy royal raped her when she was 17.

Andrew has denied Giuffre's allegations, but agreed to pay the now‑dead gal a reported $16 million to settle her suit.

Since then, a gushing 2011 email from Ferguson to Epstein emerged, in which she apologized for publicly distancing herself from the billionaire and called him a "generous" and "supreme" friend.

However, a rep for Fergie insisted she only sent the note because the monstrous moneyman threatened to "destroy" her and her family in a menacing phone call.

Still, Ferguson was promptly dropped as patron or ambassador from seven charities.

Now, sources said she appears to be cracking under pressure as she faces life as a commoner.

"She is shaken to the core by the loss of her royal safety net," Chard noted. "She fears further humiliation and worries that the serious allegations will affect her girls' standing. The couple's daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, have distanced themselves from their parents' scandals."

Royal expert Hilary Fordwich said of Ferguson: "She's described as 'massively on edge' and 'panicking' about her own future."
