Prince Andrew has reportedly been offered a new smaller home to stay in this summer away from his beloved Royal Lodge amid reports he is set to be evicted from the Windsor property
Prince Andrew has reportedly been offered a downgrade on his home by the King. The Duke is taking a step back from luxury as he prepares to swap his opulent 31-room Royal Lodge for the much more modest Craigowan cottage on the Balmoral estate.
It was previously reported that Andrew might be forced to vacate his Windsor residence by October as his private security had been axed. The King is said to have dismissed the 10-man team in an attempt to pressure the Duke of York into leaving his Royal Lodge home, reports the Daily Record. Earlier reports suggested that Prince William and Kate might be offered the Royal residence as a family home for their three children. However, experts have observed that the couple currently appear to be very content and settled at their present residence, Adelaide Cottage in Windsor Great Park.
Earlier in the year, it emerged that Prince Andrew turned down a suggestion to exchange Royal Lodge for Frogmore Cottage despite having a 75-year lease on the former since 2003. In January, stories circulated that Andrew was expected to shoulder the hefty security bill for Royal Lodge if he opted to reside in the expansive 30-room manor set in Windsor Great Park.
