Sarah Ferguson seen for first time since undergoing breast cancer op

Sarah Ferguson was spotted out and about for the first time since being diagnosed and operated for breast cancer.

With her ex-husband Prince Andrew in tow, the Duchess of York was spotted in his car as he drove in Windsor.

The mother-of-two appeared to be relaxed as she donned a light blue top with a navy jacket while tying back her red locks to make her make-up free skin visible.

Andrew on the other hand appeared to be keeping warm as he was seen wearing a jacket.

Their appearance comes after the Duchess of York revealed to the world of her battle with breast cancer.

Calling it an "enormous friend" who she dubbed a "shield of protection" the Duchess opted for a single mastectomy at London’s King Edward VII Hospital last month.

She has seen kept a low profile as she recovered in her Royal Lodge residence in Windsor, who she shares with her ex-husband.

Earlier she appeared on her podcast Tea Talks and discussed the motions of going through with it.

She said: "I really feel this is really exciting, about having this enormous friend with me, who is now my friend, to such a degree I feel like a shield, like I've got a shield of protection, because it feels like it's definitely there to say, 'We got this'.'

Sarah had attended a mammogram back in early May and instead of being given the all-clear a "shadow" was discovered in her breast.

A source told Mail on Sunday: "Most people usually associate breast cancer with a lump but that's not always the case.

"A lump can be detected by the patient, but this was a 'shadow', which can go undetected because it's a wider spread of cancerous cells that can be picked up through screening.

"In Sarah's case, a biopsy was taken from the shadowy area of tissue and a few days later the results came back to confirm the diagnosis – breast cancer."
