Fergie’s menopausal mania

Rhoda is a little older than Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, and while her own menopausal madness was not related to jet-setting and fraud, the common thread was an almost manic sense of self-importance, inviolability and invincibility.

“I run my own business and my menopausal mania was related to driving my staff crazy,” laughs Rhoda. “Fergie’s menopausal mania – which she must be experiencing at her age, 50 – is so much more scary because the eyes of the world are on her.”

“Apparently, she’s gone crazy as far as spending is concerned – refusing to scale back while debts pile up – and she’s jetsetting around the world at an alarming pace,” sighs Rhoda. “Last Friday she was in the South of France attending supermodel Naomi Campbell's 40th birthday party; earlier this week she was in London dining with a shady sheik; and then she rushed off to Los Angeles for a charity function, hounded by the press for the exposé of her monumental lack of judgment and class.”

“It’s true that Fergie suffered depression and was prescribed Prozac years ago, after her divorce,” says Rhoda,. “but as far as I know she is not on any medication right now and is simply experiencing the mania of menopause that is so common to women around 50.”

“I think she may also have been driving her staff mad, like I did,” laughs Rhoda, “because it was a royal associate who snitched on her to the News of the World, claiming she was taking money for arranging meetings between businessmen and Prince Andrew.”

“She was so manically full of her own menopausal self-importance that it didn’t occur to her that the sheik offering her a fortune to meet the prince was the same investigating editor, Mazher Mahmood – the infamous 'fake sheik' – who had previously tried to entrap the Countess of Wessex and Princess Michael of Kent.”

“On tape, Fergie gushed to the sheik: ‘I'm a complete aristocrat. Love that don't you? I love it. It's tremendously fabulous. But I've never admitted that to anyone by the way!’ and that,” sighs Rhoda, “just about sums up what I raved on and on about myself to my staff and anybody silly enough to listen to me when I was caught in the mania of menopause.”
