1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:04,280 Speaker 1: And Amanda Jamnas. You know, when you think of the 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: trouble in your life, would you not swap it with 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: Prince Andrew. I'm not the person to ask right now, 4 00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: but no, who would want to be Prince Andrew? Absolutely nobody. 5 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 1: He's brought all this upon himself and this is the 6 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: it's hubrius. The word is that the way he has 7 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,200 Speaker 1: lived his life, the arrogance with which he has lived 8 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,640 Speaker 1: his life. There his attitude to service that the other 9 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 1: children of the Queen seem to have adopted and understand 10 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 1: that they have some form of responsibility. He never seemed 11 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: to get that message, and so there's a certain not pleasure, 12 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,600 Speaker 1: but watching his world tumble around him, people are going, well, 13 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,479 Speaker 1: there you go. And now we're hearing stories that he 14 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: apparently for many years took prostitutes back to Buckingham Palace 15 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: and that the Queen knew Andrew's links to I'm just 16 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: reading this fascinating. Andrew's links to prostitution reportedly date back 17 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 1: decades when he worked as a trade envoy trade envoy 18 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,600 Speaker 1: in verb commers for the royal family. In the early 19 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: two thousands, he reportedly had forty prostitutes brought to his 20 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: hotel room Thailand on one occasion. So when you'd go 21 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: on these trade envoys as a representative of the royal 22 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: family drumming up trade for British isles, he wouldn't stay 23 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: in embassies that would have been free to the covered 24 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: by the taxpayer. The taxpayer, of course, therefore had to 25 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 1: pay for these hotel bills et cetera, et cetera, and 26 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 1: maybe the aforementioned prostitutes. What's interesting, though, is that how 27 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: do you feel about the queen knowing? Here's what a 28 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: historian has written. He brought in prostitutes to Buckingham Palace 29 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: for years. It was done on a regular basis. People 30 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: who worked there complained to people in command, but nothing 31 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 1: was done. The security that complained were told, quote, if 32 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 1: you'd like to go back on a heat Brixton, you 33 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 1: have that choice, right, but otherwise you keep quiet. Of course, 34 00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:47,720 Speaker 1: the Queen was there, she was informed, but he was 35 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 1: her favorite son and got away with everything. They brushed 36 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 1: it under the rug. Until now now the Queen is 37 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: no longer here. This is a cavalcade of disaster. But 38 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,160 Speaker 1: I was thinking about this, If you were the queen, 39 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: how isn't it easier for your son's private life to 40 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: be lived because having prostitutes isn't illegal. The morality around 41 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: that is your own business. And the royal family that 42 00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: would have been a big gossipy story to a certain extent. 43 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: Maybe the press new but didn't speak about it. There 44 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: was an arrangement. But at the same time, is it 45 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 1: was it easy for the Queen to protect his privacy 46 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: by allowing this to happen at home rather than in hotels? 47 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 1: In it it's like when you say your kids, I'd 48 00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 1: rather you drink at home in front of me than 49 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: out a local park for safety. Queen thought the same thing, 50 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:44,800 Speaker 1: but with the added pressure of photographers. Interesting, maybe she 51 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:51,040 Speaker 1: just figured, oh andrew, it's it's safer for the royal 52 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: family this way. She took one for the as did 53 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: those women. Took one for the royal family, to protect 54 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 1: the family's name by letting it happened at the Paletts, 55 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,080 Speaker 1: the path of least resistance. And also, rather than just 56 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: being an indulgent mum, it was I need to keep 57 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 1: the eyes off this for everyone's sake. Forty is a 58 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 1: lot for that. All you've heard in a lot of prostitutes, Well, 59 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 1: maybe one just made a cup of tea, didn't we 60 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 1: Also here in his own home he had an arrangement 61 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 1: of Teddy bears all over the bed, and he'd be 62 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,799 Speaker 1: furious if they were in a different order. I don't 63 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: think he was an easy man to play. Queen and 64 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: Phil should have had a Queen. Maybe Queen two familiar Brandon, 65 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: do you mine? Queen and Phil? Maybe Elizabeth and Phil 66 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: should have taken him beside. That had a bit of 67 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: a word Andrew. Andrew
