oh honey, that old bag royal biographer is George Ziadie, also known as Lady Colin Campbell. That thing is a damned ass kissing liar. I remember her going on new programs, giving print interviews and writing books about how Princess Diana was mentally ill all because she was imagining that Prince Charles was having an affair with camilla parker bowles.George went on and on (for over a decade) about how "prince charles and mrs parker bowles have never been anything more than just good friends". And kept repeating that up until prince charles admitted having an affair with mrs parker bowles

When I first heard of this interview, I thought to myself, WHY? Seemed that the story was just starting to die down a little bit, at least in the US, not sure about the UK. There was nothing to be gained by Andrew to put this back on the front pages.

Maybe there is some stuff going on behind the scenes that we don't know about. Charities no longer willing to work with him, people don't want him to open their hospitals, art galleries, schools (or whatever he does) or donate to his charities, shunned at fancy meetings, tea parties, dinners etc.

[Quote] His siblings are not nearly as trashy

Wasn't there some scandal involving Edward and his wife Sophie a couple of years ago? I think he is trash too. Seems like Anne is the only sibling without any huge scandals.

I also remember Harry wearing his Nazi uniform at a party and lots of other trashy stuff. This whole family is just a bunch of entitled, arrogant assholes and needs to go away.

by Anonymousreply 31November 19, 2019 11:07 AM

I wonder if Her Majesty has finally seen Andrew for what he really is, and OK'ing the interview was a way of casting him adrift? And possibly an object lesson for the rest of The Firm? The Queen has made some horrible mistakes, allowing her children to get away with much disreputable behavior.. She was way too lax with all of them. All the fuss and feathers over her sister wanting to marry RAF captain, pales in comparison with the shennaginans her brood has pulled over the years.

Do you think, in her heart of hearts, she realizes what she has allowed to happen? Is she at least a little bit ashamed for not putting them all on a short leash?

The Royal Family will simply wait for it all to die down and then carry on as normal. You have to remember that hanging around with paedophiles is normal for them. Both Philip and Charles were big friends with Jimmy Savile and there have long been rumours about Mountbatten. Even his Wiki page mentions them. By some accounts the 'young cabin boy' on the yacht with him when he died was actually a rent boy there for his 'pleasure'.

There's a lot of stuff floating around the internet about how many convicted paedophiles have worked in the Royal households. Paedophilia is nothing new to the Windsors. Which is probably why Andrew can't see why being friends with Epstein was a problem.

Not R14, but it's absolutely pertinent to the topic: It's the idiots who constantly go off about Markle and her trashy family as if she isn't good enough for these trashy morons. You think because these assholes wear shiny (stolen) jewels and fancy costumes, they aren't probably even more fucking trashy and dysfunctional? Thread after thread about how Markle has apparently destroyed this perfect, elite, classy family. They were always trash and frankly, criminal. God knows how many things have been covered up that we don't know about with these people, just because you think the Queen looks so adorable in her jewel-encrusted crown. There is no way in hell she didn't turn a blind eye to what Andrew was doing. She knew.

There’s a difference between consensual prostitution between adults and sex trafficking which was proven in a court of law. Illegal trafficking of underage girls in their young teens for the purpose of having sex with prominent and powerful men is still sex trafficking. Hell no one is talking about it but Andrew went on about his work against sex trafficking Eugenie or Beatrice is also very involved in preaching the evils of trafficking yet somehow not a big deal? Let’s get back to Meghan and her avocados.

Did you miss the part about an actual court case and very quickly Epstein suddenly being dead despite him being a very high-profile inmate who should've been watched 24/7? People immediately predicted he'd end up dead specifically because of teh circles he ran in and what he did.

Do you really believe he merely got Andrew some chicks? WTF do you think he was doing there on that island all of the time along with time at Epstein's NYC townhouse, discussing the next Oprah book selection?

by Anonymousreply 43November 19, 2019 5:25 PM

R42- he was neither on that island all the time nor in his town house all the time. And if you look at a list of all those who were in his town house, it includes about half of Hollywood and Wall Street. And no, I don't think the Royal family had Epstein killed either. Epstein is not the first pimp to have ever lived. I am not condoning anything the Prince might have done- but then you better then take on the entire sex industry- heck, porn grosses more than all of Hollywood by quite some- and almost all those in porn, men and women, are prostitutes. The problem and the issues are a tad more complicated and ubiquitous than you imagine.

R43, Prince Andrew is a lot like about 50% of all men who will pay for sex although it is not clear in this case whether he paid (if he did have sex with Eptein's harem) or whether Epstein used the harem to co-op him. Half of Wall Street and Hollywood use sex to co-op young men- wake up. Or have you been sleeping through the entire "me too" movement?

The Duke and Duchess lived a very comfy life due in major part to the largesse of 'friends' who for the privilege of giving them fashionable room and board were able to trot them out at lavish social occasions to which Mrs. Simpson was addicted. This allowed the Duke to hold onto his money which though about 10 million at the time was certainly not very much compared to the people they were hobnobbing with. To his credit he was also thinking of the Duchess and what would happen to her if he died first. He knew that without him she was very vulnerable and indeed she was.

Now yes, they do have great museums. But that's about it. England's selling point IS the royal family. In fact, the reason why this Epstein story is so big is because a ROYAL was involved in all this. If it wasn't for the Prince Andrew angle, no one would give a rats ass.

Basic logic proves he's lying. He says he doesn't remember the girl, but he knows he didn't do it because he didn't sweat at the time.

So if she hadn't mentioned him sweating, his only response would have been, he doesn't remember. Not that he never fucked young -- possibly underage -- women he met through Epstein, he just doesn't remember her specifically.

Thus there are only two options: Either he's lying and he does remember her, or he fucked so many possibly underage young women he met through Epstein that he can't be expected to remember this one in particular.
