Before being banished from The Firm due to his connection to Jeffrey Epstein, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor grossed out royal staffers with how he kept his room. “His bedtime habits as a single man left a lot to be desired, and a collection of scrunched-up, soiled tissues usually lay scattered around the bed each morning for staff to collect after they had made his bed,” Andrew Lownie wrote in his book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York via Daily Express. The 65-year-old also reportedly demanded that maids come in and open the curtains for him in the morning.

According to former employee Charlotte Briggs, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor sleeps with 72 teddy bears on his bed. “As soon as I got the job, I was told about the teddies, and it was drilled into me how he wanted them,” she told The Sun. “I even had a day’s training. Everything had to be just right. It was so peculiar.”

David Anderson — former head of the household at Hillsborough Castle in Northern Ireland — alleged Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor yelled at him for mistakenly calling Queen Elizabeth II the Queen Mother. According to Andrew Lownie’s tell-all, the disgraced royal asked Anderson how long he’d worked for the family before exclaiming, “And you still don’t know the proper way to refer to my grandmother? You imbecile. Get out.”
