Bendicks, with Sarah Ferguson, was banned from Buckingham Palace after the incident

The Sun exclusively reported the incident in 1996 which led to Bendicks being banned from Buckingham Palace.

Charlotte revealed the dog drew blood after being spooked by a vacuum cleaner.

She said: “My leg was bleeding and my tights ripped.”

After her shift she was sent to the Duke’s personal physician for a tetanus jab. Charlotte said a butler later told Andrew of the attack and “they just laughed”.

She said: “He wasn’t bothered. Even when I was limping and my leg was purple he never apologised. It’s those little things that tell a lot about people and their character.”

Bendicks, branded a “nasty little s***”, also attacked a carpet fitter and the Duke’s equerry. He died in 2000, aged 13, and in 2010 featured on a doormat gift from Fergie for Andrew’s 50th birthday.
