When one party is suing another party, isn't it normal legal practice for both parties to try to dig up dirt on each other? I'm not convinced that Andrew's legal response to a lawsuit is all that unusual.

And, is it illegal to ASK if they can check out the other party??
Wouldn’t it only be illegal if an officer checked for information against the regulations and how would that be Prince Andrew’s fault?
IMO, one should able to ask for information, it’s up to the authorities to decline.

There was no lawsuit in 2011.
PR instructed a tax payer funded bodyguard to investigate VG two days before the photo of them together was published in 2011.
VG sued PR in 2021.

Andrew lost his honors, but I'm bestowing Timeline Superkeeper on you. It's official.

Thank you! That would mean that Andrew was given advance warning that the photo would be published, and his immediate reaction was to try to obtain information that would discredit Virginia Giuffre. When that failed, he denied that he knew her, and attempted to discredit the photo.

Well, not exactly a denial, he said he had no recollection of ever meeting VG.

"Shadow Justice Secretary Robert Jenrick has said
it is disgusting that taxpayers are subsiding him to live in a 30-room mansion with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson
when he should be paying £200,000 a year.
It came after yet another shocking twist in the royal-Epstein scandal
when it emerged last night
he hasn't paid rent on his palatial property for 22 years.
Andrew had to carry out £7.5million of refurbishment work when he took the property on in 2003.
He was given a 75-year lease in return for a one-off payment of £1million.
His rent was believed to be upwards of £260,000 a year,
with a legal requirement to keep the property in a good state of repair.
However, sources at Windsor say the house is a virtual 'money pit' and there have long been claims Andrew has been struggling with its upkeep."

ITV interview with Amy Wallace (Virginia Guiffre's ghostwriter)... So good! She's classy, knowledgeable and confident.
She did give a not to King Charles, and I didn't agree with that, but otherwise she was calling it as she knew it.

I am old. I remember thinking that Prince Andrew was good looking (especially compared to his older brother, Charles!). Now I just see a slimy predator. He was given so much (admittedly in a non-normal family situation) and yet this is how he chose to live.
So glad my British parents and I left the UK for Canada early on in my life! Most of my relatives still live in England and I doubt they are 'for' all that the extended royal family gets. IMO 'prince' Andrew and his ex-wife could get a small abode without household help and live much more modestly, for the sake of the British taxpayers. I am not against king Charles and his son William, there is a place IMO for them as basically diplomats for England and in a sense ambassadors, plus the fact that tourism due to the royals and their history brings in money, but otherwise...
