When Oprah asked Sarah how much she received in the divorce settlement, Sarah demurred and said she could not answer the question because she had signed a confidentiality agreement at the time of the divorce.
BUZZ. Wrong answer Sarah. Another lie. You did not sign a confidentiality agreement when you were divorced. If you had, you would not have written your autobiography .. oops, I mean, you would not have allowed Jeff Conlon to write your autobiography.
The Sunday Telegraph published the details of Sarah's divorce agreement, having received the information from senior court officials who were "incensed" by Sarah's claims that she had been "abandoned financially."
Senior court officials provided "precise details" about the divorce package:
* £500,000 provided by the Queen to purchase a new home for her and the children
* £1.4 million provided by the Queen to set up a trust fund for Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie
* £350,000 in cash provided by the Queen "which had no restriction on its use."
* An agreement that the Duke of York would pay for all school and university fees
* A "modest allowance" based on the Duke of York's salary as a naval officer.
The newspaper noted: "furthermore, the Royal Family did not insist on an all-binding confidentiality clause as a part of the divorce settlement." Sarah earned more than $2 million pounds in connection with her autobiography.
Incidentally, the broadsheets largely got it right in 1994, when The Times and The Daily Telegraph reported on the York divorce settlement.
