I don't think the problem is with Sarah, as she uses Sarah Ferguson. The majority sales of her books are in the United States, so her publishers are going for maximum publicity as the fascination with royalty and so add 'the Duchess of York'. Plain Sarah Ferguson doesn't have the same publicity value when looking at selling as many books as possible.

: The THE should be left out. Technically too
: she's Sarah,Duchess of York or Sarah
: Ferguson. Not the both mixed together, she
: refers to herself as Sarah Ferguson (going
: by the way she's credited in Young Victoria,
: and also at a recent public speaking
: engagement where her name tag on the table
: infront of her says Sarah Ferguson.) I
: assume her marketing people prefer the
: Duchess of York moniker as there's the cache
: of a tenuous royal link.

: I was always under the impression that since
: the divorce Sarah was Sarah Ferguson,
: duchess of York. She is however listed on
: both bookcovers as Sarah Ferguson, the
: duchess of York.
: So my question is if the addition THE is
: correct or should be left out?
