FERGIE FINALLY FOUND!

She hasn't been seen in public since September last year due to the fallout from the Epstein scandal. But it was probably only a matter of time before the former Duchess of York was finally found.

- 

A daily newspaper tracked her down to the Austrian Alps, where she's apparently been hiding out in a £2,000-a-night chalet.

She is staying near one of her favourite wellness retreats - the Mayrlife Medical Health Resort in the spa town of Altaussee - and has been there since February.

She's said to be in no rush to leave, despite her location being rumbled.

Friends say she is burying her head in the sand, after US lawmakers allegedly asked Fergie to testify to Congress following releases from the Epstein files about her close ties to the US financier and convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who died in 2019.

It's claimed she has yet to respond, and there is no legal mechanism in place to force her to testify.

Sarah was stripped of her courtesy royal title when her ex-husband Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was 'de-Princed' last year, and six companies linked to the former duchess, including the Sarah's Trust charity, have also since been closed.
