Official filings confirm that six businesses directed by the former Duchess of York will shut down within ten days. Records indicate these entities, such as Fergie’s Farm, have seen little recent commercial activity. This action follows publicised emails revealing Ferguson sought advice regarding £6m in debt from Jeffrey Epstein. She remains a director for three other separate lifestyle and production enterprises.
