Sordid new claims about Epstein, Trump and royal staff verbal abuse exposed in new Prince Andrew biography

Prince Andrew’s already tarnished image is about to take another severe battering with the release of a new biography that sensationally details damning new allegations about his unsavoury behaviour.

From talking about “p***y” with Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, to insulting royal staff and asking guests if they are wearing knickers, the book paints a very unflattering picture of the King’s younger brother.

It also explores the concern of intelligence agencies that Russia has “kompromat” or blackmail on Andrew over the Epstein scandal.

Andrew, who was given the nickname of “Randy Andy” while at school, has become a royal pariah over his friendship with the late sex offender.

He was forced to step down from a roving UK trade ambassador role in 2011, before quitting all royal duties in 2019 and then being stripped of his military links and royal patronages in 2022 amid allegations of sexual misconduct.

Before her death by suicide, Australian Virginia Giuffre accused Andrew of sexually assaulting her when she was 17.

The Duke, who repeatedly denied the claims, paid her an estimated £7.3million ($15 million) in an out-of-court settlement in February 2022 without accepting any liability.

The book, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York by Andrew Lownie that is being serialised by the Mail, has already garnered global headlines with its claim that Prince Harry got into a physical fight with Andrew.

It claims “punches were thrown” and the Duke of York was left with a bloody nose.

But Lownie also outlines in the book a number of Andrew’s other alleged sickening interactions, including one with Donald Trump in 2000, shortly after they were introduced by Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein.

He writes that the now US president handed Andrew a list of masseuses after the pair spoke about “p***y”.

The book, which the royal family tried to have banned, also recounts alleged remarks from Epstein, calling Andrew a fellow “serial sex addict”.

“He’s the only person I have met who is more obsessed with p***y than me.

“From the reports I’ve got back from the women we’ve shared, he [Prince Andrew] is the most perverted animal in the bedroom. He likes to engage in stuff that’s even kinky to me — and I’m the king of kink!”

In another anecdote, Lownie writes that “unbelievable cruel” Andrew verbally abused a member of the royal household.

During a exchange about a storm at Hillborough Castle in Northern Ireland, Andrew asked head of the household David Anderson if there had been any damage.

Anderson replied there had, to “the tree which was planted by the Queen Mother”.

Andrew then mocked the staffer, asking “Did you mean Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother?’’ and enquiring how long he had been working for the royal family.

“And you still don’t know the proper way to refer to my grandmother? You f***ing imbecile. Get out.”

In the book, Lownie details Andrew’s allegedly bizarre behaviour at parties where he loved to play “choo-choo trains” in which party-goers would make a conga line and make train noises.

He was also dubbed a “nightmare to sit next to” with one friend quoted as saying, “He makes ghastly jokes about whether you’re wearing knickers. And you can’t tell him to sod off”.

Another woman told Lownie: “One minute you’re having your bum pinched and the next minute he’s reminding you he’s Your Royal Highness”.

Of the altercation between Prince Andrew and Prince Harry, the book says it was triggered by something “Andrew said behind Harry’s back”.

Lownie claims that Andrew, behind closed doors, voiced scepticism about Harry’s relationship with actress Meghan Markle, allegedly calling her an “opportunist” and predicting that the marriage wouldn’t last.

But Harry was quick to shut down those claims over the weekend. In a rare move, his spokesperson issued a statement to say “I can confirm neither of those things are true”.

“Prince Harry and Prince Andrew have never had a physical fight, nor did Prince Andrew ever make those comments about the Duchess of Sussex to Prince Harry.”
