Unlike Scoop, which briefly touches on Prince Andrew's family life, including his occasional anger towards staff and his large collection of teddy bears, A Very Royal Scandal delves into Andrew's friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, as well as his relationship with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, and his daughters, Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice.

Speaking to the Daily Beast, Andrew's friend said: "He is depressed and Sarah and the kids are anxious about this show. You have to remember that he absolutely insists he has no memory of ever meeting Giuffre and denies having sex with her.

Michael Sheen still thinks there's "a mystery at the heart of the drama" after playing Prince Andrew in Prime Video's A Very Royal Scandal, which dramatizes the disgraced royal's 2019 BBC Newsnight interview about his connections to Jeffrey Epstein.
