Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York and her two daughters, the Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice, jetted in to Majorca on Monday and are enjoying the lap of luxury, staying in one of Sir Richard Branson's palatial villas on his Banyalbufar estate. Fergie and her daughters yesterday lunched with Sir Richard at his La Residencia hotel in Deya and were last night apparently being cooked for by one of the hotel's chefs at their secluded holiday villa which costs around £7000 per week to rent. This is Sarah Ferguson's third visit to the island in as many years. Her first visit was to interview Michael Douglas at his s'Estaca estate in Valldemossa, where she also stayed for a few days. Last summer she returned with the two Princesses for a week's holiday, but this year's summer break in Majorca will be a family affair. Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, is expected to fly into Majorca and join the party today. A gala dinner is due to be held tonight at the luxury villa, which has its own swimming pool and is set in acres of private land, nestling on the edge of the Mediterranean, miles away from prying eyes.
