An insider told The Sun that in October 2021, Prince Andrew directed an outburst toward a gardener at his mother’s Windsor estate when he noticed an issue with one of the saplings in the garden. He reportedly screamed, “What have you done?” The insider described the incident as “over the top” and defended the gardener in question, noting, “She has always been considered conscientious and hard-working.” The insider added, “She had nothing to do with the damage and felt it was unfair.” Of Prince Andrew, the insider stated, “You just don’t talk to people like that no matter who you are.” Apparently, there were multiple people who were privy to this scene.

This wasn’t the first time that Prince Andrew had been called out for his temper. On January 22, Mirror reported that a former royal officer accused the prince of being a bully and requested that the Buckingham Palace investigate various incidents. The officer claimed that multiple members of staff filed complaints about Prince Andrew’s temper and intimidation techniques. He specifically referred to Andrew as “overbearing” and “verbally abusive.” There have also allegedly been instances of the prince making ridiculous demands. Charlotte Briggs, a former maid to the prince, recalled a time he forced her to climb four flights of stairs to close the curtains of a window he was sitting next to. Other reports stated that Prince Andrew resorts to calling people names when he’s angry.
