King Charles III now has to work overtime to keep his controversial and troublesome brother, Prince Andrew, from destroying the remaining shred of the Royal Family’s privacy.
The Monarch cannot get any reprieves; he has fallen ill after spending the last four years being humiliated and hurt by the brutal revelations of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
The California twosome has finally retired from selling the monarchy’s secrets, and Prince Andrew has decided to take over their dirty job.
This week, several credible reports surfaced claiming that King Charles is fed up with his brother, who refused to exit the Royal Lodge and move to the much smaller Frogmore Cottage once owned by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
The reports indicated that the 50-room Royal Lodge was falling apart, and Prince Andrew did not have the money needed for the extensive repairs and renovations.
Prince Andrew’s actions to befriend a pedophile and be embroiled in a sex scandal with an underage girl have caused not only emotional distress to The King but also a significant financial burden.
King Charles has to bear the cost of his brother’s security and yearly allowances. The King wants his brother out of the mansion and wants it to happen now.
Prince Andrew has decided to fight back against King Charles’s eviction demands with a series of embarrassing leaks. According to friends of Prince Andrew, this conflict is not just about a fancy and historical property but about his legacy.
He sees the Royal Lodge as the main inheritance he will leave to his two daughters, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, making this a deeply personal and emotional battle.
A source close to Prince Andrew revealed that King Charles has his team leaking stories about his past, finances, and family drama to humiliate and torment him, hoping it will become too much and that he will leave.
The person claimed: “He was given the lease on the house on favorable terms by the late queen. He has been living there with his family for the past twenty years. It is his forever home, and he won’t be leaving. Charles has more than enough houses to go around and should drop this distracting argument with his brother. It is hard to believe many people in the U.K. would give the issue a second thought if Charles’ camp stopped running these cruel eviction plans up the flagpole every few months.”
Another friend explained that despite the leaks, there is no way he will leave.
The insider stated: “Andrew has no intention of moving out, and it’s extraordinary that his brother has chosen to reopen this battle via anonymous briefings to the press. It’s like they [the Palace] have learned nothing from the whole Harry and Meghan debacle. Andrew does not have a huge amount in his life anymore; the house is one of the few things keeping him going, and the idea that he is going to throw that away along with his children’s inheritance is just absurd. The place is perfectly well maintained, and the notion that Andrew is in dire financial straits is inaccurate. He still has the support of plenty of friends and has plenty of business interests.”
King Charles has a lot on his plate.
