At one point, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's public perception was quite different than it is today, especially after his return from serving in the Falklands War. The former Prince Andrew's naval career kept him busy—and away from home—during much of his marriage to Sarah Ferguson, and in his new book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, author Andrew Lownie describes how this absence impacted their relationship.
Andrew enrolled at The Britannia Royal Naval College in Dartmouth, England, in 1979, and by 1989, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip's son had not earned a favorable image amongst his military colleagues. Lownie writes that one man thought Andrew was "petulant, entitled and extremely arrogant," although he also could be "pleasant and good company."
