Prince Andrew fears eviction from £30m mansion as King Charles slashes his income

A ‘furious’ Prince Andrew fears being booted from his £30m Windsor mansion after King Charles slashed his income.

The disgraced Duke has reportedly told pals of his worries he’ll no longer be able to afford maintenance at Royal Lodge after his brother cut his grant, and could be forced out by the end of the summer.

The sprawling 30-room property set in Windsor Great Park – around three miles from his late mother’s main residence Windsor Castle – is reportedly in dire need of refurbishment.

But Prince Andrew’s loss of income since stepping down from official royal duties mean he may struggle to find the cash to maintain the Grade-II listed property.

Andrew was cut out of the picture of official duties following the scandal over accusations he sexually assaulted Virginia Giuffre whilst friends with notorious abuser Jeffrey Epstein – allegations which he continues to strenuously deny.

Before the late Queen’s death last year, Andrew is said to have relied on her generosity surviving on private funds from the Duchy of Lancaster, last reported at £249,000 a year.

The royal estate is now owned by King Charles, with members of the family all told to expect tighter budgets moving forward.

Other than royal funds, the Duke also has a small amount of money from his Navy pension.

A source close to Prince Andrew told Mail Online: “He’s not being explicitly kicked out but it’s expected that he won’t be able to afford the maintenance.

“Royal Lodge has a swimming pool, 98 acres of land and is already in need of some repair.”
