The New York Post reports on yet another failure for Fergie (pictured).
The Sarah Ferguson Foundation has gone up in smoke after the scandal-plagued duchess of York stopped raising money for her group.
The charity, which was set up to help families and children, had not filed a tax return since 2008 and recently landed on the state list of delinquent charities.
Ferguson married Andrew, Prince of York in 1986. Andrew is the third child of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and is the younger brother of Prince Charles.
Fergie and and Andrew were divorced in 1996.
Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, daughters of Andrew and Fergie are shown above with their father at the Trooping the Colour parade in London earlier this month.
Fergie started the Ferguson Foundation in New York City in 2006, but the duchess was not expected to be a “substantial contributor” to the group, according to its IRS application for tax-exempt status.
The organization raised $508,620 in 2007 but gave out only $22,600 in grants. Of that, $10,000 went to Children in Crisis, a charity Ferguson started in England in 1993.
Tax records show it ended 2008 with $85,000 in assets — money that is unaccounted for.
