Prince Andrews slip ups

he said LOADS of things during that interview, where he was telling the truth, and forgetting his lie.

the only one I can remember now though is when talking about visiting JE house in (Bahamas?? not the NY one anyway). a witness had said he went 4 times a year. He said something like; 'you have to understand, when you go into one of those places...'

that's not how you talk about a friend's house. what are 'those places'?

Why would he want to be near a dead person?

Eh?? We were talking about Philip and whether he could be housed at Windsor, rather than Sandringham where he'll hardly see the Queen at all

And I don't think the Queen's dead yet Wink

Puzzledandpissedoff · 21/11/2019 17:39

It is a pity that so many entrepreneurs who apparently gained business from Pitch@Palace should lose out

It's even more of a pity when Andrew probably did precious little beside turning up for photo ops, award ceremonies and so on

But they made him the "figurehead" and that's what the attention will focus on

ajandjjmum · 21/11/2019 17:58

I know you're right Puzzled, but as people got the help they needed, that was good. He's blown that as well.

Interested in this thread?

This will be Andrew on Christmas Day with Sophie Wessex walking behind him ringing a bell and shouting “Shame. Shame.”

Absolutely - which is why it's a shame that, once again, he failed to think of anyone except himself

The post you were referring to said Frogmere was being prepared for PP in case the Queen pre deceased him. You then said surely he'd want to be at Windsor near his (dead) wife.

BT has said if PA didn't resign from pitch@palace they would withdraw their sponsorship.
He issued the statement about Epstein but has not addressed his close and seriously inappropriate friendship with Ghislaine Maxwell. Angry Epstein's victims said she was acting as his pimp and found the girls for him. Does PA plan to continue his friendship with her or does he need to bring her to KP (seeing as he has to avoid France and US) to end their friendship over another 4 day jolly? Hmm

VanGoghsDog · 21/11/2019 23:07

Here are some pictures of him not partying, avoiding having his photo taken and definitely not showing any public displays of affection. Can't comment on the sweating but I assume he isn't. In much the same way that I assume his wide eyed look is not drug induced.

I follow Adela King (Ladies of London) in instagram and she posted a story about how GM approached her at a party and asked if she wanted to audition to be a Victoria’s Secret model. Adela went to JE’s suite to “pose” - anyway, Adela was one of the lucky ones who didn’t become entangled in the whole sorry nightmare. But GM seems to be some evil witch.

BlackCatSleeping · 21/11/2019 23:13

Actually, weirdly, in the pictures of him partying, he isn’t sweating. I’m not defending him, but look at the sweat marks on the woman in the green dress but his shirt is dry. He may actually be telling the truth on that part. Doesn’t mean he’s truthful about other parts though.

Evilmorty · 21/11/2019 23:14

He looks like he’s on ketamine in that fourth photo.

Prince Andrews slip ups
babydog · 21/11/2019 23:29

yes evilmorty, he definitely looks like he has taken something doesn't he? that is NOT a normal face

OP posts:
VanGoghsDog · 21/11/2019 23:47

I think in the pic with the girl licking him and biting (yuck!) him he also looks high.

I think his hair looks damp but that could just be for some other reason.

RhinoskinhaveI · 21/11/2019 23:55

One assumes that G Maxwell is cut from the same cloth as her father, some combination of shark skin and snakeskin

I thought it interesting that PA was seen having a foot massage.

I remember seeing Sarah Ferguson in the tabloids after their separation sucking Johnny someone's toes and being both revolted and puzzled as an impressionable teen.

It only dawned on me last week that it was likely a PA thing Sarah was recreating.

VanGoghsDog · 22/11/2019 00:36

Sorry, what's wrong with a foot massage? Why would Sarah need to 'recreate' it, people give each other foot massages all the time.

That's what was weird about that part. He could have just said "foot massage? I don't remember specifically, but it's possible". Why would it matter?

Puzzledandpissedoff · 22/11/2019 09:58

The post you were referring to said Frogmere was being prepared for PP in case the Queen pre deceased him. You then said surely he'd want to be at Windsor near his (dead) wife

You're absolutely right, VanGoghsDog, and I'm sorry that I messed up the timescales on that; I must be losing it as I had to re-read it at least twice to see the mistake I'd made!! Blush

What I should have made clear is that I'm surprised he's not taken the opportunity to live at Windsor so as to be nearer to the Queen now, as opposed to after she's gone (if she goes first)

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 22/11/2019 10:39

@stayathomegardener

Other way round.
Sarah was having her foot kissed by her Texan lover.
Still bleurgh.

stayathomegardener · 22/11/2019 12:25

@VanGoghsDog there isn't anything wrong with it particularly it's just that I had a bizarre moment of making connections I didn't really want too.

Incorrectly too it seems Smile

ARoomWithoutADoor · 22/11/2019 12:52

I tried to listen to the Sonia Poulton podcast but I found it hard as she speaks without taking a breath. Is there a written summary of her main points / claims anywhere?

IMO
PA was being blackmailed / being supplied to by Epstein until the end. I don't believe JE was suicide
I think PA did the recent interview as there was more to come out
I think it goes WAY further than PA and a 17 year old girl or two

Savile had huge access to the Palace for years (and Chequers)
.

AlorMy · 22/11/2019 19:05

Even PA’s charity has the sort of tone that best represents his odious personality.

Whilst I have no doubt that it is does do good work in promoting young entrepreneurs, the elimination process is brutal. A sort of dragons den type of humiliation in practice.

Very different to PC’s princes trust which is much more gracious.

Another interesting clip this morning from Shaun Attwood's interview with Sonia Poulton:

StealthPussy · 23/11/2019 08:06

I thought Emily Maitlis’ choice of outfit was genius. She looked smart and businesslike as you would expect. But I think she chose carefully. A military regal style jacket top reflecting PA’s military career and HRH. Stiletto open toe boots. Questioning PA about VR (she has referred to the toe sucking in bath in media) and about Russian foot massage with her own toes exposed.

Winterisnigh · 23/11/2019 08:13

footmasssge

It wasn't the receiving the foot Massage... It was Prince Andrew licking Virginia Roberts feet that put me in mind of fergie.

Not everyone does do foot massages no. Not everyone has feet licking it's not something I'd do or enjoy at all!!

Winterisnigh · 23/11/2019 08:14

Stealth maybe... I didn't like her boots at all.
