Sam McAlister, who was responsible for setting up the Duke of York's explosive interview in November 2019, has written a memoir, Scoops , in which she detailed the bizarre event.
Appearing on This Morning to discuss the unforgettable appearance of Andrew on the flagship programme, which saw him speak about his friendship with convicted paedophile and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, Ms McAlister was asked by ITV presenter Holly Willoughby whether she thought the duke, 62, regretted agreeing to the interview.
She replied: "I think he was a bomb waiting to go off. He wanted to say something. He wanted to vindicate himself," reports the Express.
