Even after her divorce from Prince Andrew, Sarah maintained a close bond with her former mother-in-law, Queen Elizabeth. After her passing, she spoke about the effect it had on her. She said about her bond with the queen, “I am growing much more in my own voice now. I think also the queen dying has sort of liberated me a bit. My sense of purpose has always been, for 62 years, 63 years, to be very loyal and to uphold Her Majesty’s values,” she shared. “She was more a mother to me than my own mother, really, and therefore now she’s not there anymore, I feel as though maybe I can be free to be Sarah. I feel as though I’m liberated from my own mental shackles.”
