Former maid Charlotte Briggs saw Prince Andrew get angry, as he was upset if she ever moved the 72 plush toys in his bed.

Prince Andrew recently renounced his dukedom, as Virginia Giuffre‘s assault allegations against him resurfaced due to her posthumous memoir.
“In discussion with the king, and my immediate and wider family, we have concluded the continued accusations about me distract from the work of His Majesty and the royal family,” Andrew said in a statement. “I have decided, as I always have, to put my duty to my family and country first. I stand by my decision five years ago to stand back from public life.”
