The former Prince Andrew, now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, has seemingly had a challenging year. In October, King Charles demoted his brother, forcing Andrew to relinquish all royal titles and agree to vacate Royal Lodge. Now, a former Royal Family staff member has reflected on what it was like to work for the ex-Duke of York—and his recollections appear to be far from pleasant.
Royal biographer Andrew Lownie spoke to one of the Queen Mother's former equerries, Colin Burgess, for new book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York. "I remember...he came into Clarence House and wanted something wrapped," Burgess recalled (via the Express). "He looked at me and barked: 'You, wrap that!' and pointed to some object. I just thought, you rude, ignorant sod, and felt like [knocking] him [out]."
