Why is no one on here talking about that Prince Andrew video?

Or have I missed it? Maybe it’s being discussed in code to prevent the thread from being axed?

the one of him and Eugenie looking at the flowers and tributes - looks like it’s from the Aussie 7news channel…

And I would bet that Eugenie can also not recall her dad ever "fingering her arse" because it didn't happen.

Um yeah it's pretty crude to describe what you believe to be sexual assault as 'fingering her asscrack' or whatever you said.

You don't seem to have any actual regard or concern for daughter, you just seem like you want to gossip, sorry.

I'm not even sure if this was intentional or not, but op, you come across disingenuous in motives for posting.

saraclara · 12/09/2022 22:27

That video has been slowed down to a ridiculous level to make it look much more than it really was. In real time it's nothing at all. Just a hand slipping down her back had he leaned over to the flowers.

He's awful, but this action wasn't.

Interested in this thread?

Im not sure andrews actions were intentional, to clarify.

Navigatingnewwaters · 12/09/2022 22:28

Well no- not normal at all IF IT HAD HAPPENED.
Which it did not.

Does anyone else think that the clip with the slow mo repeat is doctored?
I think that’s why there’s such a difference of opinion. It depends on which video you have seen.

Yup.

I saw video on Twitter. ParodyLizTruss is really tearing into PA. To be honest, I'll probably stop following PLT. Hohum, PA could just be a clumsy oaf. People are determined to believe PA is a bad 'un while for me the evidence that he's a pervert is not compelling. Is the obsessive vilification of PA just a way of being indirectly anti-monarchist? I think that's all I have learned here.

Shocking response. He groped her in plain sight, on film. No wonder victims of sexual abuse feel so ashamed and alone when people deny what is literally in front of their eyes, or brush it off as insignificant

FayeGovan · 12/09/2022 22:30

Much as i loathe and detest him i dont think there was much wrong in the clip i seen, it cut away pretty soon

We don't talk about Andrew, no no. We don't talk about Andrew🤫

Now I’ll never be able to listen to that song again!

Hopeandlove · 12/09/2022 22:30

Plenty of men comfort women by rubbing their backs etc but there is a fine line - he crossed it. She’s his adult daughter back only or arm that’s it - I would have hated a man doing that to me.
PA has long been deluded that he is of great service to the country and credit and that everyone loves him. They don’t.
I question the judgement to pay off his debts and let him get away without answering questions in a court.

SettingsO · 12/09/2022 22:30

I have seen two versions of this video. One where it looks like it was accidental, and another much more shocking one (the one linked to upthread) that is clearly doctored.

Stoic123 · 12/09/2022 22:31

Dislike Prince Andrew but all I see here is a bit of awkward positioning/ accidental misplacement (and a bunch of prurient sensationalists).

Blossomtoes · 12/09/2022 22:31

I was watching live. There’s no way that was sexual assault. Isn’t what he’s actually done bad enough without fabrication?

Greywhippet · 12/09/2022 22:31

Megapint · 12/09/2022 22:09

Fuck me! Some of you have very vivid imaginations & seem very open to suggestions. Most people see a father comforting his daughter & a shared moment of grief. Give your heads a wobble

I’m certain you can give comfort without bum touching

watcherintherye · 12/09/2022 22:31

This is such drivel! He has his arm round her, then bends down to look at some flowers still with his arm round her, so naturally his arm has to go with him! He removes his arm at the point where it is level with the bottom edge of Eugenie’s jacket. How is that groping? Yes, hold the man to account for his past misdemeanours, but don’t relinquish the moral high ground by making up this kind of shit.

Josette77 · 12/09/2022 22:31

This thread is triggering, pa in that video is not.

IrisVersicolor · 12/09/2022 22:32

It’s still available on Bitchute and Rumble.

It is grim.

FetlocksBlowingInTheWind · 12/09/2022 22:32

PleaseGoDontGoAgain · 12/09/2022 21:54

He was in front of a crowd, well aware of the feelings and cameras out there and his Mums just died, you really think he was horny and copping a feel of his own daughter rather than stressed out and trying to reassure?

Desperately seeking rabble and pitchforks is a desperate look.

Yeah I'm with you. The whole works was watching FGS! I watched it live and didn't see anything untoward at all.

BruisedSkies · 12/09/2022 22:32

@AgnestaVipers ducking bell! That’s creepy as duck! Did not know that about Biden. You can see all the girls feel so uncomfortable with his repeatedly kissing them. And grabbing their waist.

LaurieFairyCake · 12/09/2022 22:33

I absolutely loathe him and think he should be arrested

But he did nothing in that video apart from very awkwardly try to continue to keep physical contact with her (as she was weeping) while he was bending down

WhatHoJeeves · 12/09/2022 22:33

What a cruel and nasty thread to start. And what ugly minds some people have. Andrew is - to understate - an unpleasant man in all sorts of ways but this sort of made-up nastiness is puerile.

When all of this is over, it is right that he should fade into the background but he is the son of the Queen, he is entitled to mourn and he is entitled to publicly comfort his distressed daughter, who is clearly close to him, without such nasty, unfounded, gutter speculation.

jennakong · 12/09/2022 22:33

Just watched it on Twitter. Oh God how gross.

crazyplanet · 12/09/2022 22:33

He's got plenty to answer for but this definitely isn't one of them.
