In 2022, John Byran spoke to Lorraine Kelly on ITV, and explained he had stayed in contact with the Duchess of York and they remained together for four years after the scandal.
Recalling the moment a friend revealed photographs of him sucking Fergie’s toes, John remarked: “I was really quite horrified.”
The financial advisor believed he sucked Fergie’s toes as part of a game with a young Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, playing “make-believe”.
On Lorraine, John did go on to praise Prince Andrew and Fergie on the general handling of their divorce: “I think the two of them are exemplary in terms of how they conducted themselves getting divorced.”
Fergie and Prince Andrew separated in 1992 before pictures of Mr Bryant were released, and the pair divorced in 1996 after nearly six years of marriage.
