More and more bizarre details are coming to the public from the British royal family about what is happening behind the castle walls. According to a TV documentary, Prince Andrew is said to have a bed full of teddy bears.
With this plush message before the broadcast of the British TV event “Ghislaine, Prince Andrew and the Pedophile”, tonight at 10 p.m. on channel ITV, nobody would have expected: Prince Andrew collects teddy bears and freaks out when someone drives them crazy .
Details that could spring from a Hollywood movie. A prince who is causing a royal stir, facing civil damages for molesting the then 17-year-old Virginia Roberts Giuffre, has a bed full of teddy bears in his royal bedroom. This is what the British officer Paul Page, who belonged to the royal bodyguard until 2004, claims. The Duke of York is said to have lined up around 60 plush bears on a bed.
According to Page, Prince Andrew has thrown tantrums when staff fail to return the stuffed bears to their original position and order after cleaning and tidying up. There should be a laminated picture of the teddy bears, which specifies the exact positioning. The employees can then use this picture to make the prince happy.
Prince Andrew lives in his mother’s house with teddy bears
The author Elizabeth Day has already reported in the past about the prince’s strange teddy bear collecting passion. Speaking of her visit to Buckingham Palace in 2019, she said: “I was told to wait in this hallway. The only one waiting with me there was a giant teddy bear in a chair. When I asked Prince Andrew about it, he said that it was a wedding present from his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson.”
Elizabeth Day, who is a writer, journalist and broadcaster, further analyzed what he saw: “It seemed odd, a grown man comfortable around teddy bears and living at his mother’s house. Maybe he never really grew up because he didn’t have to.”
Prince Andrew has lived in the “Royal Lodge” at Windsor Castle since 2004.
