As news broke surrounding Prince Andrew, attention quickly turned to the woman long linked to him in the public imagination. Yet while commentators demanded answers and social media filled with outrage, Ferguson herself was reportedly far from London.

According to multiple reports, the 66 year old sought privacy at Paracelsus Recovery, an ultra exclusive wellness clinic in Zurich known for its discretion and eye watering fees. With prices said to reach £13,000 per day and bespoke programmes running into six figures, the facility caters to high profile clients seeking intensive mental and physical health support away from public scrutiny.

Sources claim Ferguson travelled to Switzerland shortly after Christmas, remaining there through January. Her last widely photographed appearance had been at a family event in London earlier in December. After that, public sightings became rare.
