Before the disgrace came the adoration. In the shadow of his elder brother Charles, Andrew was “the Golden Prince” — dashing, charming, and adored by the press.

To his mother, he could do no wrong. To palace insiders, that would prove dangerous. Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here. Check out "Pal...
