Prince Andrew often recruited friends and staff to help him meet women.
Royal biographer Andrew Lownie claims that the disgraced prince had an entire network of staff and friends who helped “arrange girls” for him for intercourse.
According to Lownie, Andrew had a specific type. “He likes blondes,” one of Andrew’s aides reportedly told a diplomat, to which the diplomat shot back, “I’m a diplomat, not a pimp.”
Lownie makes the explosive claims in his new book, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, alleging that Andrew often relied on his inner circle — and even his royal security officers — to help him meet women.
“He would spy out an attractive ballerina at the Royal Ballet and then send his [Personal Protection Officers] … to invite her to meet the prince,” Lownie wrote. “Other variations included sending aides to invite girls to his table at [London nightclub] Chinawhite or come to his hotel suite when abroad.”
The author further claims Andrew — the younger brother of King Charles III — “exploited” his royal connections as patron of the English National Ballet, attending performances mainly to meet dancers.
The bombshell revelations come just days after the Duke of York gave up his royal titles following renewed scrutiny over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
Andrew, who has long denied allegations of sexual misconduct, said his decision was made to avoid “distracting from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family.”
Following the announcement, it was revealed that Andrew used his taxpayer-funded Met Police bodyguards to dig up dirt on his sexual assault accuser, Virginia Giuffre, who passed away from suicide earlier this year.
In an email obtained by the Daily Mail, Andrew discloses Giuffre’s date of birth, social security number, and criminal record in the US, to be used “for investigation” by his personal protection officer from the Met’s elite S014 Royal Protection Group.
The Met immediately launched an investigation into these claims.
