According to a report based on an excerpt, Brown shared with The Sun, Prince Andrew startled his rich fans by doing this. It is believed that he was a guest of Lee Annenberg, wife of former US ambassador to the UK—Walter. The incident is said to have occurred at Sunnylands, their Palm Springs estate in California. Prince Andrew allegedly stayed in Sunnylands for a year after his divorce from Sarah Ferguson.

Brown has told in her book that Lee was appalled by such despicable behaviour by the Prince in 1993. She wrote in her book:
[Prince Andrew] holed up in his bedroom for two days apparently watching porn on cable TV.
She also added in her book:
The Duke was always as oversexed as a boob-ogling adolescent.
Royal idiot
It comes after the book alleged that convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein dubbed Andrew ‘an idiot’ behind his back while attempting to profit off the Duke's status and position in society. Brown wrote in her book:
Privately, Epstein told people that Andrew was an idiot, but – to him – a useful one. A senior royal, even if tainted, is always a potent magnet abroad.
Brown also claims in her book that Epstein would fly Andrew to 'obscure foreign markets' where governments couldn't refuse to see him because he was a royal. On these visits, he would accompany him as a 'financial consultant' to His Royal Highness and negotiate deals for his personal gain.
