00:00 Sarah Ferguson, commonly called Fergie, recalled her wedding day like the story of Cinderella
00:06 in the latest episode of the podcast Tea Talks with the Duchess and Sarah.
00:11 In 1986, the nation stopped and took a holiday on July 23rd for the farmer's daughter going
00:17 up the aisle with an extraordinary tiara given by Her Majesty.
00:21 It's an extraordinary story of Cinderella.
00:25 She explains that she wasn't exactly milking the cows but her father did do farm work.
00:31 Up I went, up Westminster Abbey, and there at the end was the handsome prince with his
00:35 full naval uniform on and the nation stopped.
00:39 Fergie compares a scene in the Cinderella film to the moment when she walked down the
00:43 stairs and her father was at the bottom.
00:46 It was one of those moments.
00:49 I was watching Cinderella with the girls the other day, Ella enchanted.
00:54 I did that.
00:56 I had that moment and dad was at the bottom.
01:00 She even jokes that she could not believe a fairy tale was happening to her and neither
01:04 could her father.
01:06 We got in our glass coach and dad said to me, "What do we do now?" and I said, "I don't
01:11 know.
01:12 I've never done this before."
01:14 And he said, "Well, nor have I."
01:16 Although the pair divorced in 1996, Ferguson has always stayed behind his ex-husband even
01:22 after he stepped down from his public duties.
