Prince Andrew has been at the centre of the global news cycle this month after he decided to do a sit down interview with the BBC, where he attempted to set the record straight about his ties with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

Since it aired, many have criticised the royal for some of the bizarre explanations he gave during the interview.

In one anecdote, Prince Andrew addresses the claims made by a woman that he had sex with her when she was 17-years-old.

The claim included high-level detail, including that the royal had been visibly sweating at the time.
