Privacy Notice Prince Andrew’s six-word response to a photographer after his now-notorious interview with Emily Maitlis on Newsnight has been revealed. The photographer, Mark Harrison, was present for the now infamous interview and has since explained what the Royal said to him when it was over. He shared the story on This Morning on Thursday 4 April with hosts Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary, saying: “The call goes out, it’s a wrap and I suddenly find myself in this kind of three-way cram with the other two. He then recalled Prince Andrew said: “‘I think that went really well’.” Dermot asked him about his impressions of the interview, to which Mark replied: “I was blown away by it. As the viewer would have been seeing it live, I think there were key moments that everybody knows about the sweating and Pizza Express all of these moments”, reports the Express.

“And I caught the eye of the other cameraman on the other side just to kind of make contact with someone, but I just didn’t want to do anything dramatic.” Mark also spoke about the moment he got the phone call for the job and mentioned that he had to pause the interview at one point so he could take his photographs. He remembered standing outside Buckingham Palace, recalling: “I don’t know what I’m going to do, I don’t know why I’m going there and I mosey on up having received a text.” He went on: “I go in through security into reception and wait there and I’m waiting and waiting and waiting and then a tannoy comes over that says, ‘the Queen’s laundry has arrived, the Queen’s laundry’ so I stand up and have a look at the Queen’s laundry arriving.” When Dermot asked if Mark tried to guess which Royal he was meeting, Mark confessed: “I couldn’t think of any story at that point which was really important and worthy of Newsnight because that meant it was serious.”

He continued: “So I hadn’t got a clue and I found myself with an intern. She was an intern at Buckingham Palace about 19 years old. Incredible and we’re chatting away walking through the underneath of the palace. “We go up in a lift, we suddenly appear in the big marble hallway that you can see in the photographs, and I just had to interrupt her and just say, ‘I’m really sorry, but I don’t know why I’m here. I have no idea why I’m here.'” She then told him that he would be photographing the Duke of York. After figuring out the reason for his visit, Mark shared that he was instructed, “to shoot come what may”. “They said, ‘Don’t stop filming whatever you do, we will keep filming and there is a chance that Prince Andrew may walk, we don’t know what is going to happen’.” “I just say well, ‘let’s shoot some stuff before just in case it all goes belly up and if we get a chance we’ll do it at the end’ and that’s what we did.”Story SavedYou can find this story in  My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
