Seems like Prince Andrew isn’t going anyplace until he’s dragged!
After the loss of life of Queen Elizabeth II, her son King Charles stepped up and determined to make loads of adjustments! As you already know, a type of adjustments was massive price cuts — a type of the royals’ operating prices. Annually, The Duke of York will get £249,000 as a grant, and the king has determined that was a bit an excessive amount of for his liking, inflicting his brother to be getting ready to an eviction.

It’s reported by a number of sources Andrew has a 60 yr lease on a 30 room mansion in Windsor, and he solely pays round £250 per week in hire! Compare that to a New York studio condominium — which might price about £675 per week. He’s acquired deal happening and he doesn’t wish to lose it, however these grant cuts are apparently going to make it exhausting for him to afford that £250 price ticket.
The disgraced royal reportedly doesn’t reside inside his means, in line with royal funds knowledgeable MP Norman Baker. He Told DailyMail.com:
“It’s time Andrew started living within his means rather than expecting other people to subsidize his luxurious lifestyle. If he can’t pay a commercial rent for the property with his own money, he should be evicted and relocate to somewhere much smaller. The taxpayer is subsidizing him.”
Biographer and investigative journalist Tom Bower instructed the outlet this stubbornness from The Duke of York might have damning results on his brother’s coronation which is ready to happen in early May:
“Andrew’s selfish behavior threatens King Charles’ reputation and even the Coronation. He thinks that he can brazen out the bad predicament he himself created. By issuing threats, he is playing with fire.”
He went on to say he thinks King Charles’ finest plan of motion could be kicking Andrew out — once more:
“The King’s best solution is to force Andrew out of the vast house, accept much more modest accommodation and persuade him that his bid for rehabilitation is pointless – and in the end will be self-destructive. Not only for himself but also his two daughters.”
The 63-year-old lives within the Royal Lodge along with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, they usually’re each reportedly distraught by being given such quick discover to depart the property. Uh, yeah, they’re getting evicted! Evictions are often quick discover…
But simply because they’re leaving the massive mansion behind doesn’t imply they’ll be roughing it by any means. The duke and his ex are trying into snapping up a £5 million residence which was bough by Fergie in 2022. An insider instructed the outlet:
“They are looking to keep it empty to use themselves. It’s a far cry from a mansion on the Windsor estate, but this is their only London property.”
A far cry from the Windsor mansion — however a minimum of it’s Fergalicious! LOLz!
Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams doesn’t forsee Andrew altering his life-style, even when his funds are minimize:
“What the Royal Family do with a problem like Andrew is unclear. He has, as far can can be seen, absolutely no intention of undertaking charitable duties, as the Queen reportedly suggested, in search of future redemption, since he sees no reason for penance. In the court of public opinion he is already guilty. Yet it would appear he has, or will have, access to very considerable funds. King Charles may reduce his grant. It seems, however, extremely unlikely that he will change his lifestyle, however reprehensible it may appear to the public.”
Another insider spoke to The Mirror and dished that Andrew isn’t leaving — no means, no how:
“He [said] he’s not leaving, there is no chance that will happen and even if the King wanted him how would that work? If he [the King] wants to spend millions reimbursing him for the money he’s already spent on the property, that’s another matter.”
Yeesh.
Sounds like a bit child throwing a mood tantrum over not wanting to depart grandma’s home…
What do U suppose, Perezcious readers? Sound OFF within the feedback (beneath).
