Is he leaving, is he staying, or does he just have one foot out the door? That’s what a lot of royal fans can’t help but wonder as there has been a lot of speculation over Prince Andrew’s living situation ever since King Charles gave him his eviction papers from The Royal Lodge. Luckily, we are breaking down all the details for you. Here’s what you need to know.
Royal Family News: What’s Going On With Prince Andrew’s Living Situation?
Back in June, it was reported that the Duke of York will only leave the Royal Lodge if he’s forced to go. But he won’t go quietly. Back in January, one source said, “King Charles doesn’t have an ounce of sympathy for Prince Andrew. “The king has made it clear that Buckingham Palace is no place for him.”
Apparently, Randy Andy is refusing to leave The Royal Lodge even though renovations are expected to take place this summer. There’s even a good chance that after the renovations are complete, the Duke of York still won’t want to leave. He doesn’t want to downgrade his lifestyle or his home.
One tipster said, “They originally wanted Andrew out of Royal Lodge so that the property could be renovated and prepared for new lodgers. But he is adamant that, as he has so many years left to run on his lease and he spent millions from his own fortune doing up the place that he is not going to leave his home. He feels very strongly, perhaps with some justification, that they are moving the goalposts suddenly and it is hugely unfair.”

But, if there is one saving grace for Andrew, it might be in the name of his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, who has been battling with breast cancer. Because of her health, King Charles might not continue with his eviction of Andrew and Sarah at The Royal Lodge. Despite the fact that the Yorks have been divorced for nearly three decades now, they still remain very close and live together.
So far Andrew himself hasn’t made any comments about his living situation, but it’s pretty safe to say that he won’t be going anywhere, anytime soon. Watch this space.
