Prince William warned royal family about Andrew years ago<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\nPrince William saw the warning signs about his \u201cdisgraced\u201d uncle Andrew long before his public downfall, a new report has claimed.<\/p>\n
A royal expert said the Prince of Wales strongly disapproved of the former Duke of York\u2019s behavior and attitude years before he lost royal titles and the Royal Lodge over Jeffrey Epstein tites. <\/p>\n
According to royal editor Russell Myers, William viewed Andrew as entitled and disrespectful toward staff. <\/p>\n
They said his behaviour clashed sharply with William\u2019s is own and Kate Middleton\u2019s approach to creating a respectful and positive working environment. <\/p>\n
“It was very clear to me, made by several people I\u2019d spoken to for the book, how William thought his uncle was always a bit of an ignoramus,” said Myers, per Fox Digital.<\/i><\/p>\n
He added, “He had a real issue with the way that Andrew treated his staff. He didn\u2019t like his attitude of entitlement and privilege. This is very alien to both William and Catherine.”<\/p>\n
“They are very centered on producing really sound and enjoyable working environments for the people who are employed by them. They\u2019re very respectful of the people that they work with.”<\/p>\n
The expert further shared that William\u2019s stance on Andrew gotten stronger following Andrew\u2019s bombshell interview to the BBC <\/i>in 2019.<\/p>\n
“After that disastrous 2019 interview Andrew gave to the BBC\u2019s \u2018Newsnight,\u2019 in which he failed to apologize for his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, \u2026 William had the foresight to say, \u2018This man must not have any place within the institution, any place within the family,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n
\u201cHe must be banished because he got himself into this mess, and he must be banished before the rot sets in.\u2019 That\u2019s what he told the late queen and his father at the time.\u201d<\/p>\n
“… [Andrew] failed to apologize for his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. He failed to acknowledge the real impact on Jeffrey Epstein\u2019s victims and really gave a very bad account of himself. … I think it was six years later before King Charles finally took that action of stripping his title, stripping his honors and exiling him from public life.”<\/p>\n
“I think if William had had his way, then certainly the royal family would’ve been able to be on the front foot many years ago,” Myers added.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
