Prince Andrew And His Problem With The Word No (10/4/25)

Prince Andrew has shown repeatedly an inclination to push past initial rejections or objections—one of the more glaring examples was his decision to proceed with the controversial Newsnight interview, despite widespread advice against it. Royal aides and media advisors reportedly cautioned that such a public confrontation would be fraught, but Andrew moved ahead anyway, showing a willingness to press on even when many thought he should decline.


Another instance lies in the public and media scrutiny of whether Andrew would express regret over his association with Epstein. During the interview, he was twice asked if he would call his friendship a “mistake,” and he declined both times—rather than accepting a simpler path to remorse or damage control, he held firm.
