Fergie teases superstar podcast guest and reveals grandson August's huge blunder

Sarah Ferguson has teased that a singing superstar is set to join her for a future episode of her new podcast.

The Duchess of York recently launched a weekly podcast called Tea Talks alongside pal Sarah Thomson, the founder of children’s newspaper First News.

So far, the two women have chatted about Fergie's life as a grandmother and how she became emotional when welcoming her third grandchild Ernest.

And on this week's episode, released today, she teased that a future guest on the podcast would be pop princess Kylie Minogue.

It came as Sarah asked the duchess to spill on whether she felt "duty bound" to carry out charity work when she became a member of the Royal Family and if she and Princess Diana talked about helping others.

And Fergie replied: "Drink or spill? Ok, I'm going to spill. Well, I have to lead by example because there are going to be lovely guests we are going to have on in the future, Kylie Minogue. Hi, Kylie!"

Elsewhere in the podcast, the duchess talked about how she had the family over at the weekend and they had an “incredible” time after she set up a paddling pool and sand pit for the youngsters.

"So my grandchildren had the most incredible weekend," she said.

"I was very lucky. I had everybody in. I had Edo and Beatrice and Jack and Eugenie and August and new Ernest. Well, Ernie."

But she detailed an unfortunate incident that left her scrubbing the floor after two-year-old August spilt some bath salts.

It came as she was asked the best thing about being a grandmother and she said: "Guess what I did at the weekend? August thought it would be fun to put one of these bath essences all over the carpet with oil in it.

"It was fine - I got the dog wee wee scrubbing brush out and it was gone, so there you learn something."

Meanwhile, she also said her granddaughter Sienna is "just a completely independent fabulous joy".

"And she has a relationship with Beatrice the same relationship I have, which is only mummy, mummy is mummy. And no one else does, just mummy.

"And I still have that with Beatrice and she’s 34. And I wrote to her this morning, I said, Beatrice, the relationship you have with Sienna is the same relationship I have with you" she said.

Sarah added: "Beatrice and Eugenie both want their mummy, which is kind of nice. We’re a tripod."
