'Leave my Beatrice alone' demands Fergie

Sarah Ferguson ranted on British radio yesterday that the media interest in her daughters physique was 'driving her to anorexia'.

What a load of bull. Instead of stamping her feet and fighting her daughters battles, Fergie would be better spending her energy teaching Beatrice that with her privileged lifestyle comes a huge downside - media interest and media criticism. Most people Beatrice's age would not be able to afford the sort of holiday she had in a luxury resort in the Bahama's. Beatrice should stop winging and get over it, and herself.

But it's not like the media are being unfair. Yes she is not fat, but yes she was wearing a bikini that did not suit her figure at all. It wasn't like the media super-imposed a different bikini onto her body. It was her decision to wear such a outfit.

If Beatrice - or indeed Sarah - do not like the media spotlight then stay out of it. No one makes them go to fancy restaurants, nightclubs and Mediterranean resorts. It seems they like the attention but the minute it goes sour they are kicking up a fuss.

My problem is not with Beatrice being upset, she is after all only human, more her mother jumping in and demanding this, that and the other. Get a grip Fergie, or better still return to America where you seem to enjoy being ass licked by those who are in awe of you.

Oh and let your daughter fight her own battles. Everyone knows if you did that at school you were considered a baby and got bullied all the more.........
