Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, formerly known as Prince Andrew, is refusing to go quietly into the night.
Following his royal titles being stripped due to his association with Jeffrey Epstein, Andrew was evicted from his Windsor Estate home. Although he signed a 75-year lease in 2003, King Charles ordered his brother to vacate the premises.
But rather than packing his things and moving on, Andrew’s throwing a very un-royal tantrum. I wonder if he stamped his foot when he demanded $99 million to leave Royal Lodge? According to a palace source, Andrew “is not just refusing to leave Royal Lodge, he’s practically super-gluing himself to the furniture” in order to stay.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor isn’t leaving his royal residence quietly
Despite evicting Andrew from Royal Lodge, Charles offered him a home on the royal family’s Sandringham Estate in Norfolk. But now the former royal is insisting that he needs a “six or seven-bedroom house” on the Estate as his “replacement.”
“And not just a house,” the insider told OK magazine. “He wants the whole package: a cook, a gardener, a housekeeper, a driver … Basically a full-time staff to keep his life running exactly the way it runs at Royal Lodge. And of course, police protection, too.”
Meanwhile, Andrew is refusing to leave the Lodge until “the deal” is done. Apparently, “negotiations are crawling.”
Perhaps they should send Prince William in to take a harder line. Though he’s fond of his cousins Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, Will’s no fan of their dad. While he believes he still has a “duty of care” for his uncle, he was all in favor of cutting him out of the line of succession. It’s also rumored that William plans to exclude his uncle from his coronation when he eventually becomes king.
