What's Happening?
Princess Diana reportedly had strong opinions about her brother-in-law, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew. According to biographer Andrew Lownie, Diana described Andrew as 'very, very noisy and loud' and questioned if 'there
was something troubling' him. Diana's assessment of Andrew included remarks about his preference for watching television all day and his lack of initiative, labeling him as 'not a doer.' The biographer also noted Andrew's fluctuating demeanor, which could shift from polite to aggressive. Diana's views contrast with those of Queen Elizabeth, who believed Andrew might have been a better match for Diana due to their closer age proximity compared to Charles. Despite these opinions, Diana was interested in Charles, not Andrew.
