Charles and William Push to Oust Prince Andrew From Royal Lodge, but Lease Stands

A 2003 deal reportedly secures his residence until 2078.

Overview

  • King Charles has urged Andrew to leave the Windsor residence and move to smaller Frogmore Cottage, according to multiple reports.
  • Andrew cites a long‑term lease paid for in 2003, described as “watertight,” that allows him to remain in the Royal Lodge until 2078.
  • William and Kate are reported to back Andrew’s removal from the property located near their forthcoming home at Forest Lodge.
  • The prince’s allowance has reportedly been cut and he is now expected to cover his own security, with estimates exceeding €3.4 million a year.
  • Andrew relinquished his Duke of York title last week, and some commentators predict tighter limits on his future public appearances.
