Overview

• King Charles has quietly withdrawn his eviction effort, allowing Prince Andrew to remain at Royal Lodge.
• The King had cut Andrew’s allowance and $4 million-per-year security detail in October 2024 to pressure him to relocate.
• In November 2024 a previously undisclosed financier stepped in to fund Andrew’s occupancy after royal support ended.
• Royal Lodge has served as Andrew’s 31-room home since 2004, where he lives with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson.
• UK government officials are calling for transparency on Andrew’s backer as the dispute underscores Charles’s austerity drive and royal property tensions.
