I actually think andrew is just incredibly entitled, and feels he can do as he pleases, when he pleases, due to the fact he is son of a monarch. And Sarah goes along with it and supports him.
my husband worked with him in the navy and his behaviour there was the same, deeply entitled, very self focused, and beleived everyone else was beneath him and should recognise that, commoners.
i really don’t see any other member of his family behaving like that, not publicly. But that’s how he is. He beleives he is superior and has the god given right to do as he pleases.
i recall reading that going home one night he found the gates locked, and instead of driving the few mins round to the other gates, he smashed through them in his 4x4, causing huge damage, it hit the press at the time.
and I think that just says a huge amount about who this man is. I mean who does that.
so I think the root cause is the man is overwhelmingly entitled and has a huge sense of superiority over everyone else, leading him to beleive he was untouchable and had the right to do anything he wishes, and no one or thing can stand in his way,
for sure he and Sarah have brought shame on the monarchy and their own daughters, but I very much doubt he cares, all he will care about is the impact on him. You can even see the pompousness dripping from his statement, he’s never once put his country first, never once, he has always put himself first. But due to his overwhelming sense of entitlement and superiority he just thinks that the things he did was his right,
