Andrew Windsor Teetotal Choice was concerned about Queen Elizabeth

The biography also details more disturbing allegations about Andrew’s behavior within the royal family.

Hardman records an altercation with Vice Admiral Sir Tony Johnstone-Burt, one of Elizabeth’s closest aides, which escalated beyond a verbal confrontation.

He writes that it was “not just an outburst of expletives and a finger jab” between him and Andrew, but rather a “kinetic” blow delivered to him by the royal family in an incident that would have shocked those in attendance.

The episode reportedly prompted Andrew’s father, Prince Philip, who died in 2021 at the age of 99, to write an apology letter.

Andrew’s current circumstances have only increased attention to his past.

Following his arrest on February 19, 2026, he lived at Wood Farm on the Sandringham Estate after being evicted from Royal Lodge.

His absence from the royal family’s Easter Sunday service at St George’s Chapel in Windsor on April 5 was distressing.

King Charles is believed to have distanced himself from his brother after stripping him of his titles in November 2025 following renewed investigation into his links to Epstein.

Meanwhile, Andrew’s younger brother, Prince Edward, is said to have visited him at Sandringham at Easter in what sources describe as a private intervention regarding his future living arrangements.
