Shocking moment Sarah Ferguson storms out of car crash TV interview after awkward question

Sarah Ferguson has dominated royal headlines this week after she became involved in another scandal. Last weekend, it was revealed that the Duchess of York, 65, had sent emails to the late convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein in 2011 after he had been released from prison for child sex offences.

In the emails, Sarah had apologised to Epstein for disowning him and criticising him in a previous interview, calling the convicted paedophile her "supreme friend". A spokesperson for the duchess has since said that she had only sent the email at the time as she feared Epstein was going to sue her for defamation.

While Sarah is facing somewhat of a PR crisis as a result of this latest revelation, it is not the first time she has been involved in such a scandal.

In 2010, the duchess was caught on video offering a News of the World reporter - who posed as a businessman - access to her ex husband Prince Andrew for £500,000.

This was an embarrassment for Sarah and the Royal Family, so much so that when she was questioned about it in an interview with 60 Minutes Australia host Michael Usher in 2011, she stormed out.

As reported by The Daily Mail, Sarah was being asked about the cash-for-access scandal and shown the footage, causing her to walk out temporarily from the interview.

In this interview, Mr Usher asked her: "'Did you take the money? At one point you had $4,000 cash sitting in front of you, did you take that."

She replied: "Absolutely yes, it was given to me and I got it in the car and then returned it straight away."

The interviewer then asked her if she only returned it once the scandal broke, to which Sarah said: "As soon as I knew it was a scandal not once it broke Michael. Don't try and trick me now because I am not going to play this game. Delete that bit. I don't to go down this route."

After a brief chat with her agent, Sarah then continued with questions until she eventually left the interview for a few minutes. She then returned later on.

Recalling the interview last year, Mr Usher said on Nova 96.9's Fitzy & Wippa with Kate Ritchie: "But then there was just this moment... she turned and getting her back into the chair, was crazy. She came back and she continued the interview, and then it was like a different personality again."
