Former British diplomat Simon Wilson says he met Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor multiple times and immediately noticed behaviours and working conditions he described as “uncomfortable.” Wilson, speaking about his time dealing with Mountbatten-Windsor during the period when he served as a government trade envoy from 2001 to 2011, recounts repeated interactions rather than a single incident. According to the accounts, Wilson raises concerns about how colleagues and staff conducted themselves around him, suggesting that staff were left “treading on eggshells.” The two outlets reporting the statements focus on Wilson’s personal perspective and his interpretation of the atmosphere during his meetings and professional engagement. They do not provide additional corroborating evidence within the published summaries, nor do they detail specific actions beyond Wilson’s characterisation of the environment he observed. The reporting therefore centers on Wilson’s testimony about his experiences and impressions during the years Mountbatten-Windsor worked in an official trade role.
