Prince Andrew was branded an “egotist” by a former head of royal security after continued controversy over his insistence on keeping a taxpayer-funded £3 million-a-year police protection detail, despite no longer being a working royal. The former officer, who once oversaw protection for the royal household, accused the Duke of York of exhibiting an inflated sense of self-importance by refusing to accept that his public role—and the privileges that came with it—had long since ended. His remarks reflected broader frustration within both royal and policing circles, where many believed Andrew’s demands for elite security were rooted in pride rather than legitimate necessity.

The criticism came at a time when Andrew’s reputation was already in tatters following his association with Jeffrey Epstein and his disastrous Newsnight interview. Once viewed as a key member of the royal family, he had become a figure of ridicule and embarrassment—isolated, stripped of official duties, and reliant on family resources to maintain his lifestyle. The “egotist” label encapsulated how many inside and outside the palace viewed him: as a man unable to let go of the trappings of a past life, clinging to status symbols that no longer reflected his reality.
