Amanda’s meltdown

IS PRInCE Andrew’s former squeeze Amanda Staveley, a major player in the £300 million Saudi takeover of newcastle United, feeling the heat?

Staveley, 49, seemed to ‘kick off’ on her mobile in WHSmith at London’s King’s Cross. ‘It was a complete meltdown,’ says my man hiding behind the Maltesers. ‘She was yelling: “Why can’t you do it in 24 hours?” ’

Queueing to pay for sweeties, drinks and a Richard Osman novel, she then apparently shouted: ‘Don’t you tell me to calm down!’ — before realising she lacked cash or cards. She was eventually rescued by husband Mehrdad Ghodoussi.
