The scandal surrounding Prince Andrew continues to deepen with reports he took an "unvetted" masseuse into his bedroom at Buckingham Palace.
In an interview with The Daily Mail UK, masseuse Monique Giannelloni said she was surprised how easily she was allowed to get into Buckingham Palace.
She said she was asked for her car registration number, before being cleared to drive in for her appointment with the Duke of York in 2000.
"It was so easy to get into the palace and it troubled me because I could have been anyone," she told the Daily Mail.
Ms Giannelloni said she was referred to Prince Andrew by another of her wealthy clients, British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell.

The masseuse has been accused of being a co-conspirator of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, recruiting and young women for him.
The latest reported revelation about Prince Andrew's behaviour comes after the royal stepped down from public duties following a trainwreck interview about his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein and allegations of sexual abuse.
The spotlight is expected to remain firmly on him as the BBC prepares to air an interview with his accuser Virginia Giuffre on Monday.
She alleges the Duke of York slept with her on three separate occasions, but Prince Andrew strongly denies the allegations.
The BBC on Thursday released a trailer of the programme, entitled The Prince and the Epstein Scandal, in which Ms Giuffre claims she was forced into having sex with the Duke of York when she was 17.
In the 20-second clip, Mrs Giuffre, formerly Virginia Roberts, said: "He knows what happened, I know what happened and there's only one of us telling the truth."
