Queen Elizabeth II's second son, Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, adopted her two pooches shortly after Her Majesty's passing. Ferguson opened up about the queen's corgis to E! News, revealing, "I think they are exceptional and they're just very funny." Notably, Fergie also added: "I'm sure when they're chasing the air, I think they're looking at her. That's what I like to think. The squirrels are not in sight but they're still barking at something, so I think it might be her."
Thankfully, the corgis enjoy her company as well. Ferguson elaborated, "She has little hands so when I go pretend I've got the little queen's hands and I put the little biscuit down, they gingerly take it from me. Very polite, well-trained." Despite still feeling their owner's presence, Fergie told BBC Radio 2 that the corgis appear to have stopped mourning the queen because their tails are proudly upright again.
She added that the pooches are living better than most of us mere mortals since they sleep in their own plush doggie beds, which even boast crowns (via Tatler). Likewise, Prince William informed mourners that the pups were thriving in their new home, noting, "They'll be looked after very well. Spoiled rotten, I'm sure," (via Hello! magazine).
