Paul Page served as one of Prince Andrew’s royal protection officers within the Metropolitan Police’s elite Royal Protection Command from 1998 to 2004. During that period, he claimed to have witnessed troubling behavior by the Duke of York and unusually lax security surrounding Andrew’s associates—particularly Ghislaine Maxwell, who Page said came and went from Buckingham Palace “at will” and without being logged, something unheard of for any non-royal visitor. Page also described the prince’s domineering and erratic temper toward staff, alleging he frequently berated officers and demanded obsessive control over trivial matters, such as the precise placement of teddy bears on his bed. His later public statements painted a portrait of a man entitled, abrasive, and completely out of touch with normal standards of conduct or decency.
Their relationship eventually soured when Page was later convicted of fraud in 2009, though his prior service gave his subsequent revelations about Andrew’s behavior a unique level of access and credibility. In interviews and documentaries, Page said he had initially admired Andrew but grew disgusted by his arrogance, his treatment of staff, and his relationships with controversial figures like Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein. Page’s firsthand accounts have since been widely cited in media reports scrutinizing Andrew’s private life, offering rare insight from inside the royal bubble and underscoring the culture of impunity that surrounded him for years.
