- PEOPLE, Page 105Defending The Duchess
-
-
- Even for the rabid London press, it was going too far. Just
- days before Christmas, Richard Blackwell, the noted purveyor of
- worst-dressed lists, carped that the Duchess of York, the former
- Sarah Ferguson, looked "as if she makes beds in Ireland, or milks
- cows." The remarks came as the newly svelte Fergie was having
- daughter Beatrice christened last week. The tabloids, merciless
- till recently about the duchess's pudginess, leaped to defend her.
- WHAT A JERK, howled the Sun. The Daily Mirror railed that Blackwell
- was not one to point fingers, having had four face-lifts. No need
- for a fifth -- off with his head!
