Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s former nanny has disclosed the nickname she gave to the former-Duke of York during his childhood. Mabel Anderson, 100, served as a nanny not only to Andrew, but also to the reigning monarch King Charles and Queen Elizabeth II’s other children, Princess Anne and Prince Edward.
It’s been reported that Mabel and the King maintained a close bond throughout his life, and when she reached her hundredth birthday, he was there to celebrate with her and deliver the royal telegram that each individual receives upon turning 100.
Regarding Andrew, the Mail reported that Mabel once remarked that one nursery couldn’t handle two of him.
Moreover, it’s alleged that Mabel gave him a two-word nickname in response to the mischief he caused as a child, dubbing the royal a “young imp”.
Analysis of Andrew continues as a lip reader detected the disgraced royal conversing with his nephew Prince William at the Duchess of Kent’s funeral last year. It was the final official royal event he attended before his titles were stripped the following month, reports the Mirror.
The lip reader has examined the exchange and suggested that Andrew posed a question to William. Forensic lip reader Nicola Hickling proposed that Andrew asked William: “I’ve learnt from what I’ve done, but before I forget, and if I can, I’d like to ask if you can forgive?”
The exchange between the two occurred whilst scrutiny persisted surrounding Andrew’s interactions with the late convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Andrew continues to deny wrongdoing in relation to his connection with Epstein.
The moment followed Andrew greeting not only Prince William, but his wife Princess Kate as well. Ms Hickling noted that, after his initial approach, William appeared “a little bit uneasy” before also observing that Andrew received no response to his question.
Soon after Andrew’s attendance at the funeral, he would be stripped of his royal titles and removed from his residence at Royal Lodge before relocating to the smaller Marsh Farm on the Sandringham estate in Norfolk.
Last month, on the morning of his 66th birthday, Andrew was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office following allegations he shared sensitive information to Epstein whilst serving as a trade envoy for the United Kingdom.
Following his arrest, Andrew was released under investigation. In a statement issued on February 19, the day of his arrest, Thames Valley police said: “Thames Valley Police is able to provide an update in relation to an investigation into the offence of misconduct in public office.
“On Thursday we arrested a man in his sixties from Norfolk on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The arrested man has now been released under investigation. We can also confirm that our searches in Norfolk have now concluded.”
