Former palace staffers have painted a disturbing portrait of Prince Andrew, Duke of York’s behaviour behind the scenes — revealing a man whose temper, demands and eccentricities ran rough-shod over those who worked for him. One ex-security officer recounted that waking him in the morning might provoke “a ‘fuck-off’ as good-morning” type of greeting, highlighting a habitual pattern of verbal abuse rather than gratitude. Another claimed that Andrew would become irrationally angry if his large collection of teddy bears on his bed was not arranged to his exacting specifications — a detail staff were expected to maintain daily or face his wrath.

Beyond the mood swings and bizarre routines, the accounts describe a royal who treated staff as if they existed solely to serve his whims, not as individuals with dignity. According to staffers, he routinely dismissed them with contempt for trivial failings — even repositioning workers or transferring them because of a “tie that wasn’t silk” or a “mole he disliked” on their face. These stories underscore a deeper problem: Andrew’s sense of entitlement and the unchecked power he wielded in his private household, which helped fuel his broader fall from grace within the institution he once represented.
