Prince Andrew allegedly does not have to leave $37M Royal Lodge for now, sources report

King Charles allegedly decided to kick Prince Andrew out of his luxury 30-room Royal Lodge and move him to a 'cheaper' Frogmore Cottage once occupied by Prince Harry and his wife Meghan, in a cost-cutting reshuffle.

Sources claim that the King’s brother doesn’t have enough income to support his $37 million-worth residence after paying an eye-watering settlement to Jeffrey Epstein’s victim Virginia Giuffre.

It is believed that Prince Andrew is reluctant to leave the property and it looks like he doesn’t have to, not yet at least.

The move has now been postponed by King Charles due to Prince Andrew’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson who also live in Royal Lodge still recovering from her breast cancer surgery.

Here is what the royal sources say.

Meanwhile, Prince Andrew could be facing trouble over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein one more time,here is why.

Also, King Charles and his younger brother didn't always have a strained relationship, insider claim.

Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s move to Frogmore Cottage postponed

Prince Andrew moved to the luxury Royal Lodge in 2003 after signing a 74-year lease. The property is located near Windsor Castle and is owned by the Crown Estate, a for-profit company which manages all the monarchy’s assets.

But as Andrew's financial situation changed in the last years, the King’s brother is unlikely to be able to maintain his life in a pricey 30-room royal house.

Heavily impacted by the scandal surrounding his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, he allegedly had to pay millions in settlement to Virginia Giuffre who accused him of sex crimes.

Sources claim that Prince Andrew doesn’t have sufficient income to pay Royal Lodge rent and upkeep.

And while Charles still covers Andrew’s personal security, he wants his brother out of the Royal Lodge and into the Frogmore Cottage, which is smaller and inside the security zone, in a bid to cut costs.

Sources revealed that Prince Andrew - who is reportedly reluctant to leave his home of twenty years - doesn’t have to do it just yet.

As his wife Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York is currently recovering from a complex eight-hour breast cancer surgery with the support of her daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, she was given all the time she needed in the comfort of her home to get better.

Will Prince Andrew eventually have to move?

The Duchess of Yorkwas diagnosed with cancer during a routine mammogram.

It’s not yet known what further treatment she will face or how long it will take for her to recover.

Sarah Ferguson’s friend said:

She is resting at home. It was major surgery.

They also revealed that her daughters, Beatrice and Eugenie, ‘are being very supportive, as is Andrew.’

It is likely that the King’s brother will eventually have to move houses as Frogmore Cottage is not only cheaper to maintain but will also cut security costs.

A royal source commented:

Charles is not chucking Andrew out, but Andrew will have to find the money to look after the property himself — and where is that coming from?
