Editing Prince Andrew, Duke of York (section)

===Treatment of reporters, servants and others===
During his four-day [[Southern California]] tour in 1984, Andrew squirted paint onto American and British journalists and photographers who were reporting on the tour, after which he told Los Angeles county supervisor [[Kenneth Hahn]], "I enjoyed that".<ref name="UPI-LA84">{{cite web|url=https://www.upi.com/Archives/1984/04/24/Crown-may-pay-for-cameras-clothes-sprayed-by-prince/1107451630800/|title=Crown may pay for cameras, clothes sprayed by prince|work=UPI|first=Deirdre|last=Childress|date=24 April 1984|accessdate=25 January 2022}}</ref> The incident damaged the clothes and equipment of reporters and the ''[[Los Angeles Herald Examiner]]'' submitted a $1,200 bill to the [[List of diplomatic missions of the United Kingdom#Americas|British consulate]] asking for financial compensation.<ref name="UPI-LA84"/>

''[[The Guardian]]'' wrote in 2022, "his brusque manner with servants is well-documented. A senior [[footman]] once told a reporter who worked undercover at Buckingham Palace that on waking the prince 'the response can easily be "fuck off" as good morning'."<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/jan/08/royals-await-anxiously-the-fallout-from-prince-andrews-disgrace|title=Royals await anxiously the fallout from Prince Andrew's disgrace|date=8 January 2022|accessdate=9 January 2022|work=The Guardian|first=Andrew|last=Anthony}}</ref> Former royal protection officer Paul Page said, in an [[ITV (TV network)|ITV]] documentary, that Andrew maintained a collection of "50 or 60 stuffed toys" and if they "weren't put back in the right order by the maids, he would shout and scream and become verbally abusive."<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/ghislaine-maxwell-itv-page-prince-two-b1994572.html|title=Andrew's teddy bear collection was not to be disturbed, claims documentary|work=The Independent|date=17 January 2022|accessdate=17 January 2022}}</ref> Page later stated in the documentary ''Prince Andrew: Banished'' that different women would visit Andrew every day, and when one was denied entry into his residence by the security Andrew allegedly called one of the officers a "fat, lardy-ass [[cunt]]" over the phone.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/bully-prince-andrew-revolving-door-women-entering-bedroom-former-royal-officer|title='Bully' Prince Andrew had a 'revolving door' of women entering 'his bedroom,' former royal officer claims|work=Fox News|first1=Stephanie|last1=Nolasco|first2=Ashley|last2=Papa|date=5 October 2022|accessdate=11 October 2022}}</ref> The Duke's former maid, Charlotte Briggs, also recalled setting up the teddy bears on his bed and told ''[[The Sun (United Kingdom)|The Sun]]'' that when she was bitten by his [[Norfolk Terrier]] in 1996 he only laughed and "wasn't bothered".<ref name="Cartwright-Jan22">{{cite web|url=https://www.news.com.au/entertainment/celebrity-life/royals/former-palace-maid-spills-on-prince-andrews-entitled-demands/news-story/de6a4f333b55090f4e154915d0258d34|title=Former palace maid spills on Prince Andrew's 'entitled' demands|website=news.com.au|first=Lexie|last=Cartwright|date=22 January 2022|accessdate=25 January 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.womanandhome.com/us/life/royal-news/prince-andrew-laughed-when-his-dog-bit-maid-leaving-her-bleeding/|title=Prince Andrew laughed when his dog bit maid, leaving her 'bleeding'|work=Woman & Home|first=Aoife|last=Hanna|date=21 January 2022|accessdate=25 January 2022}}</ref> She said that she was reduced to tears by Andrew for not properly closing the heavy curtains in his office and added that his behaviour was in contrast to that of his brothers Charles and Edward who "weren't anything like him" and his father Philip whom she described as "so nice and gentlemanly".<ref name="Cartwright-Jan22"/>

[[Massage therapist]] Emma Gruenbaum said Andrew regularly overstepped the mark, making creepy sexual comments when she came to give him a massage. Gruenbaum maintained Andrew talked continually about sex during the first massage and wanted to know when she last had sex. Gruenbaum said Andrew arranged regular massages for roughly two months, and she believed requests for massages stopped when he realised he would not get more.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/prince-andrew-royal-massage-physiotherapist-b2012935.html|title=Prince Andrew 'was constant sex pest' to massage therapist|work=[[The Independent]]|first=Chiara|last=Giordano|date=11 February 2022|accessdate=12 February 2022}}</ref>
