“He was known as Randy Andy for a reason when he was younger and it’s never really stopped.

“Travelling all over the world as the UK trade ambassador and for other royal duties has given him access to some beautiful women and he’s taken full advantage.

“He is a red-blooded male and, if you like, he is like a sailor with a girl in every port.”
