PRINCE ANDREW REPORTEDLY DOES NOT WANT TO LEAVE THE ROYAL LODGE
According to Express UK, Prince Andrew is reportedly unwilling to leave Royal Lodge “without a fight.”
A royal insider told the publication King Charles gave his brother the keys to Frogmore Cottage two months ago. The prince, however, has chosen to let his youngest daughter, Princess Eugenie, stay there when she visits the family in the UK.
Since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were evicted from the cottage earlier this year, Andrew was believed to move in.
A source, however, told OK!: “Andrew is adamant that he is staying at Royal Lodge for the remainder of his lease.”
He has lived in the 30-room Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park since 2003, Express reports.
The move is reportedly part of King Charles’ plan to slim down, modernise the monarchy, and cut costs.

MEGHAN AND HARRY GOT ‘EVICTED’ FROM THEIR UK HOME
All eyes are on the royal family in light of King Charles’ upcoming coronation. But, the “bad blood” between Prince Harry and the rest of the royals is taking a toll.
Harry and William are still not seeing eye to eye, and now it seems the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have lost their only home in the UK.
According to The Sun, King Charles booted the prince and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage days after the prince’s memoir Spare was released in January. This leaves the couple with no remaining home in the UK.
The eviction was reportedly done so the disgraced Duke of York, Prince Andrew, could move in. He used to live in the Royal Lodge, the publication states. Prince Andrew settled out of court with sex abuse accuser Virginia Giuffre.
“This surely spells the end of Harry and Meghan’s time in the UK. But it shows Harry and Meghan are powerless to stop the eviction,” a Royal insider told The Sun.
MailOnline confirms the King’s wishes for Andrew to move but claims that the Prince is resisting.
King Charles has allegedly decided to evict Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from their royal residence at Frogmore Cottage in favour of Prince Andrew.
According to reports, Harry and Meghan renewed their lease on the property in May 2022.
