Prince Andrew is the most compromised member of the British royal family. For several years now, he has primarily been discussed in the context of his connections with the accused paedophile and pimp Jeffrey Epstein. In 2019, the son of Queen Elizabeth II tried to salvage his image by giving an interview to the BBC. However, this only further tarnished his reputation.
King Charles III and Prince Andrew made an agreement
As a result of ongoing controversies, Prince Andrew lost his noble titles. He was also supposed to lose his residence but agreed with his older brother. Specifically, a few months ago, the 64-year-old committed to King Charles III to find the funds to renovate the Royal Lodge where he lives. Interestingly, the prince occupies the luxurious residence with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson.
King Charles III has had enough of Prince Andrew. Threatens to break ties
It seems that Andrew failed to keep his promise. Nevertheless, he doesn't intend to leave the Royal Lodge. The King is reportedly furious and demands that his brother move to the house previously inhabited by the Sussexes at Frogmore Cottage. The situation is so tense that Charles "threatened to cut ties completely with Prince Andrew."
According to the "Daily Mail," if the father of Beatrice and Eugenie continues to refuse to leave the Royal Lodge, the King will completely cut him off.
Unfortunately, if Andrew refuses to leave within a reasonable time frame, then the King may be forced to reassess the whole package of support he provides and the duke would be required to fund the lion's share of his security, accommodation and lifestyle costs all on his own - which, given the sums involved, is highly unlikely to be possible in the long term. Everyone is mindful of his well-being, and has his best interests at heart, but there are limits of patience and tolerance. - said someone from "The Times," close to Charles.
Andrew's financial troubles are the result of his scandals. Although his wealth has significantly diminished, he does not intend to give up the comfortable residence.
It’s really rather sad but if it’s a case of who will blink first then Andrew is going to dig in. He ain’t going anywhere. - said someone from the prince's close circle in a media interview earlier this year.
Charles's proposal for Andrew to move to a somewhat more modest residence was supposedly seen by him as a "too far-reaching degradation."
Do you think the King will be forced to evict his stubborn brother?
