Fergie, darling, do the world a favour and shut up.

The world's least favourite Duchess who was pointedly not invited to last year's royal wedding has been interviewed by the Hindustan Times in the furtherance of her efforts to promote her children's book, and inevitably started weighing in on the summer of royal scandal.

“Everyone has the right to privacy and one must respect that," she said. "People should focus more on what great people Kate and Harry are, and on what great work they are doing for Britain. Harry is an extraordinary soldier who is fighting in Afghanistan for his country, while Kate is a wonderful woman doing a beautiful job for the country.”
