Sarah Ferguson makes first public appearance since skin cancer diagnosis

Sarah Ferguson has made her first public appearance since her skin cancer diagnosis was announced almost two weeks ago. 

The Duchess of York made an unexpected appearance at the Haute Living Celebrates The Haute 100 event in Miami, Florida on Monday. 

Fergie rocked a military-style black and white blazer over a black dress for the cocktail event, and appeared happier than ever as she posed for the cameras. 

The 64-year-old was pictured cuddling up to and interacting with fellow guests at the event. 

This comes just two weeks after the Duchess opened up on her second cancer diagnosis in a year. 

"I have been taking some time to myself as I have been diagnosed with malignant melanoma, a form of skin cancer, my second cancer diagnosis within a year," she said in the Instagram post at the time.

She also recently opened up on her recovery from breast cancer, following her mastectomy and reconstructive surgery.

The Duchess expressed her gratitude to her two daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, for their constant support.

"My two wonderful daughters are my wholehearted cheerleaders, my devoted champions and my soulmates, and they have been as supportive as can be, as they always are," she told People magazine at the time.
