The Duchess of York revealed the way women are compared online reminds her of how she and Diana were presented as “rivals”. But Sarah denied claims of competition between the pair, who both married into the royal family. The 59-year-old brought up Diana as she slammed the “sewer” of social media.
Writing in Hello, Sarah said: “I rarely if ever go 'below the line' on social media or news websites and read people’s comments.
“I know that a lot say nice things, but there's a large minority who seem to think that all the normal rules of society don't apply to the internet.
“Take a look at any website, and you’ll see extraordinarily abusive comments aimed not only at people in the public eye but also other internet users.
“Bullying, sniping, bitching, even the most appalling sexism, racism and homophobia are commonplace – it seems that online, anything goes.
