In an August 2010 email from Sarah Ferguson to Jeffrey Epstein, released by the U.S. Department of Justice, the former Duchess of York begged the financier for a job. "I am wanting to work for you at organizing your houses," she wrote in the message via
Daily Express. "I am in the south of France. I have the perfect butler." In another email, she pressed, "When are you going to employ me?"

In correspondence from October 2009, Sarah Ferguson requested money from Jeffrey Epstein for bills. "I urgently need £20,000 ($26K) for rent today. The landlord has threatened to go to the newspapers if I don't pay. Any brainwaves?" she wrote.

Jeffrey Epstein was questioned by his assistant Lesley Groff about whether it was okay to buy airline tickets for Sarah Ferguson, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. "Regarding the flights for The Duchess and the girls from Heathrow to Miami and from NY to Heathrow: we are able to get the girls on economy round trip and The Duchess in business round trip. The girls' flights total are $4835.94 and The Duchess' flights total $9244.16. Do I have your permission to purchase these tickets!?" she asked.

Sarah Ferguson appeared to be Jeffrey Epstein's biggest supporter. "You are a legend. I really don't have the words to describe my love, gratitude for your generosity and kindness," she wrote in an email to the criminal on January 30, 2010, via
People. "I am at your service. Just marry me."

In a shocking another message, Sarah Ferguson spoke with Jeffrey Epstein about Princess Eugenie's love life after he asked when she and her youngest child would be visiting New York. "Not sure yet. Just waiting for Eugenie to come back from a shagging weekend!!" she wrote, referring to the then-19-year-old spending time with her now-husband, Jack Brooksbank.
