A masseuse who routinely treated Prince Andrew in his bedroom has claimed he was a “constant sex pest”.
Emma Gruenbaum, provided therapy sessions for the Duke of York at Royal Lodge in Windsor and has alleged that he would often ask about her love life.
The 50-year-old also claims that the Prince tried to hug her at the end of sessions.
But she had to put him in his place following a comment he made about her bum and after another remark she snapped at him: “It’s none of your f***ing business.”
She also claimed Prince Andrew insisted on being naked apart from his own towels and demanded the full body massages were carried out in his bedroom despite her objections.
She also alleged within minutes of their first session he asked her about her sex life, report Mirror Online.
Ms Gruenbaum was a sports massage therapist in Surrey when she started treating the Duke’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson in 2005 - who in turn recommended Andrew get in touch.
She said she was not vetted by staff at Buckingham Palace - as far as she knew - and had six sessions with Andrew from that summer.
She had several high-profile clients but said Andrew was “very different” from the start.
Ms Gruenbaum said she was called and invited by the Duke’s secretary to the Lodge on a Sunday afternoon, which was “unusual”.
She claimed she arrived for the session at around 6pm but rather than use her own table, was told she must use one of Andrew’s.
After being led by a staff member to a master bedroom she claimed she said she was “not really comfortable” and complained the table was too high and would mean “massaging at boob level”.
Ms Gruenbaum was allegedly told “not to make a fuss” before she heard Andrew say behind her: “Hey nice a****. Do you take it up the a***?”
She said she turned to find the prince “eyeball to eyeball” with her and the atmosphere became “really weird” - with the Duke making constant anal sex jokes and asking when she last had sex.
For each of the half a dozen sessions they had, Andrew’s office sent cheques to Ms Gruenbaum’s home address including a compliment slip from the Duke.
The visits were almost weekly for two months and then she stopped getting calls from his staff to make appointments.
“Every time I saw him he would try to overstep the line,” she said. “His advances weren’t working and I think that his patience ran out.”
The claims come as the Queen’s second son’s legal team claimed his sex-case accuser Virginia Giuffre - who alleges he forced her to have sex when she was underage - “may suffer from false memories”.
The Duke is facing a civil jury trial later this year in New York after the law suit was filed but he denies any wrongdoing.
Ms Gruenbaum told the Sun: “I don’t want to sit by and not speak out about the way he was towards me as he calls Virginia delusional.”
Buckingham Palace did not want to comment when approached by Record Online.
