The former Prince Andrew went to Lakefield College private school in the Kawartha Lakes region of Ontario. Some places (streets and a lake) in Canada were named after him, which the local authorities are trying to change. I had a friend who was a year behind him and he said he was a 'nice guy' but wasn't friends with him.
My mom went to school in Bangor, Wales in the 1930s and 40s, with some children of the royals who were born from women who were maids at a nearby stately home the royals visited - I think it was Penrhyn Castle, but I'm not sure. The other kids called them 'Prince of Wales' as a joke.
This kind of abuse has been going on for centuries. I'm glad it's coming to light.
