Jonny Dymond Career
He joined the BBC in 1994 as a researcher and later became a producer on Newsnight. Following this he worked as a reporter, first covering British politics for the BBC World Service and BBC World Service Television, then in 2000 moving to Washington DC. He covered 9/11 from DC, then went to Istanbul to cover Turkey and the Middle East between 2001 and 2005. After some years as a foreign correspondent in Brussels, Dymond became a royal correspondent in 2017. Interviewed for the November 2019 edition of Town and Country, Dymond was critical of Prince Andrew for agreeing to be interviewed by Emily Maitlis about the controversy over his friendship with the American billionaire and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, suggesting it was a ‘fantasy’ that Prince Andrew could have reversed public opinion in one 40 minute interview. He told the same magazine that Prince Harry was rude to members of the press during a royal tour of Australia, New Zealand, and some Pacific Islands in 2018, but declined to go into details about what Prince Harry had said to them.
