Ex-Prince Andrew has often been regarded as the late Queen Elizabeth II‘s favorite child. And an entitled one at that!
It was previously reported that the late Queen purposely indulged her youngest two sons, Andrew and Prince Edward, after eldest son King Charles allegedly complained about feeling neglected. However, the plan seemingly backfired, as Andrew reportedly became both indulged and entitled. And now, someone else is weighing in on the disgraced royal’s behavior too…

Ex-Prince Andrew Described As Unpopular And 'Entitled'
According to reports, former royal butler Grant Harrold has spoken out about the former Duke of York's behavior – and as expected, he isn't coming across well! Harrold served the likes of King Charles, Queen Camilla, Prince William, Kate Middleton, and Prince Harry, and reportedly always felt like Andrew was different – and not in a good way!
Harrold claimed to LadBible during an episode of Honesty Box that Andrew "wasn't one of the most popular royals," yet still always thought "he was better than anyone else." And despite being "polite," he seldom made conversation with any of the staff, almost as if he thought they were beneath him.
We know that the late Queen didn't feel the same way, as she was known for her kindness to staff. The alleged conversation she had with Meghan Markle, where she was said to have scolded her after speaking to staff rudely during the royal wedding menu tasting, still lives rent-free in our minds!
Royal Butler 'Didn't Want To Be' In Andrew's 'Presence'
"My interactions with him were very few and far between, and when I did have any dealings with him, in fairness to him, he was polite. You know, there would be a, kind of, 'thank you' or whatever, but a lot of people would describe [this] entitled feeling," Harrold explained.
"You got the feeling he thought he was better than everyone, just his mannerisms and the way he was. And what was weird for me was no other member of the family did you get that vibe from, not from the Queen, not from Prince Philip, not from his brother Charles, not from Anne, none of them," he dished.
"But with him he had this, I can't even explain it to you. I just didn't want to be in his presence," Harrold added, before recalling King Charles and Queen Camilla's 2005 wedding and Andrew's behavior at it.
"I remember being at, again, the wedding of the King and Queen, and he was there, and there were staff members there, and he didn't speak to any of the staff members that were there as guests," he recalled, adding: "He would only speak to the family or family friends."
"It's quite sad actually, 'cause I don't know why he was like that," he concluded. "And also, you know, from colleagues in the royal household, none of them ever have a nice thing to say about him. And I always see the good in everyone, so it's quite sad."
