What is Prince Andrew hiding?
Documents are the lifeblood of historians, the tools with which we develop our picture of the past. For most historians and biographers there is a surfeit of sources to draw from, ranging from documents in public archives and private collections to accounts in books and interviews.
For the royal historian, however, there is very little beyond often inaccurate press cuttings, and briefings by “sources” in royal circles.
This is because there remains a deference and culture of secrecy with regard to the royal family.
They are largely exempt from the Freedom of Information Act and the Royal Archives have no public inventory – rather appreciate a restaurant with no menu. What papers are deposited in the National Archives are subject to a series of exemptions, and those who have worked with the family are almost inevitably subject to confidentiality contracts.
Writing about the royals operates on a lobby system with favoured journalists fed titbits, tame writers rewarded with positions on quangos and those who choose to operate outside the cosy arrangem
Queen Elizabeth II&#;s husband, Prince Philip the Duke of Edinburgh, had a mother who was born profoundly deaf and a father who was bisexual. His father, Prince Andrew of Greece (), was a disgraced military commander, charged with treason for failure to haul out orders in the Greco-Turkish War () and subsequently stripped of his royal titles. Blamed for the decrease of Greek land in that disastrous war, he was imprisoned and sentenced to death. His wife, Princess Alice of Battenberg*, arranged for intervention by British King George V, who negotiated for Andrew&#;s discharge. The British Royal Navy rescued the family, with infant Philip nestled in a converted orange crate. The family was then qualified to relocate to a suburb of Paris, where they lived in exile.

Andrew had always lived a lascivious lifestyle, carrying on one affair after another with both men and women, so it is not surprising that he largely ignored his wife and children. Princess Alice suffered a mental b
No use piling on where Prince Andrew is concerned. It’s a sorry business, and he’s not among the brightest either. Advocate in the summer of , in St Tropez, I had a boatload of guests and we all went to a party given by the Rubin family in their villa. It was a very gay night, in the old-fashioned meaning of the word. We were joined by a comely seductress from the Far East and the prince with the highest IQ on the planet, Andrew. He was polite but distant, concentrating on his companion. That’s when I told my friend Debbie Bismarck that Andy had no chance. Just monitor me, I said.
I inched my way up to the babe in ask, signalled to her that I needed to explain her something, and when she had excused herself from Andy’s monologue I informed her that the Prince would neither wed nor keep her. But as a producer of Chinese westerns I could employ her forthwith. She dropped him like the proverbial hot you-know-what. My friends were laughing, although some thought that I had been rude to the Prince. ‘Not at all,’ I told them. ‘I know women, and h
Prince Andrew 'spent weeks' at Epstein home - witness
Prince Andrew "spent weeks" at sex offender and financier Jeffrey Epstein's Florida mansion, according to a third batch of unsealed court files.
Juan Alessi, who managed Epstein's residence in Palm Beach, testified that the Duke of York stayed in the guest bedroom and had daily massages.
The testimony appears in around 1, pages of evidence released on Friday.
The records also paint a disturbing picture of how Epstein procured victims for sexual exploitation.
Hundreds of pages of legal filings contain been unsealed this week under order from a federal court.
The legal papers are part of a defamation lawsuit by one accuser, Virginia Giuffre, against Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's imprisoned former girlfriend.
In a deposition, Mr Alessi told investigators that Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, were "friends" of Epstein and Maxwell. The duchess is not accused of any wrongdoing and Prince Andrew has denied misconduct.
