Is there a rift or a feud going on ? Well, I would say there is probably some truths to all these rumors. I've heard the word "controlling"  used a lot in these stories. I almost fell over when a friend of mine called The Duchess Of Success (depends on who you talk to)  the Yoko Ono of our time !  Staff quitting, meddlesome family from away. It's a bit of a mess. Remember, everyone thought Fergie was a breath of fresh air until she wasn't. Time will tell in this never ending saga !
