Sarah Ferguson has come to her son-in-law Jack Brooksbank’s defense after photos showed him on a boat with three women in Capri. While on BBC One’s The One Show, the Duchess of York insisted that her daughter Princess Eugenie’s husband was “doing his job.”

“Jack, who was on the front page, is a man of such integrity. He’s just one of my most favorite people, I call him James Bond actually,” Sarah said (via the MailOnline). “He’s just a superhero in my book, and he’s a great father, fabulous husband, and he’s never at front of house, he always likes to be at the back.”

She continued, “So for them to make this story is completely fabricated, he works as an ambassador for Casamigos, and he was on doing his job, and so I think it’s really important that we just clarify that for Jack’s sake.”

According to the MailOnline, Jack was joined on the boat by models Maria Buccellati and Erica Pelosini, as well as former Glamour magazine editor Rachel Zalis, who is now Casamigos’ global director. A source close to Jack previously told The Mail on Sunday that Princess Eugenie did not join her husband, who is a brand ambassador for Casamigos, on his business trip in Capri because he was “there to work at” the star-studded Casamigos x Unicef Summer Gala.

Eugenie married Jack in 2018 at St. George’s Chapel. The couple welcomed their first child, son August, earlier this year. During her appearance on BBC One’s The One Show, Sarah praised Eugenie, calling her a great mother. She said, “I’m so lucky, my girls, Eugenie’s a great mum, everyone says you’re so excited with your grandson and I say no, I’m so proud of my daughter, she’s a great mother.”
