Prince Philip was a difficult man to work for, reveals a former Royal snapper.
Husband to Queen Elizabeth II, the former Duke of Edinburgh ‘hated’ photographer Arthur Edwards, he claims.
Arthur tells The Sun: “Photographing the Queen for many years was an absolute joy.
“Photographing Prince Philip for many years was not so good.
He added: “I mean, he had not a lot of time for the media, and he sort of treated us a bit like telegraph poles, you know, just walk around us.”
Speaking further to Matt Wilkinson, Arthur revealed: “But I admired him for what he did.
“He was mentioned in despatches during the war and serving.
“He was in Tokyo Bay when the Japanese surrendered.
“And of course, he was a captain of his own ship when he was based in Malta.
“He gave all that up to serve the Queen and the country,” Arthur noted.
