Apparently, Prince Andrew's stubbornness knows no bounds—he continues to defy the king's orders by refusing to vacate Royal Lodge. RoyalFamily PrinceAndrew KingCharles
, Andrew has been refusing to leave his longtime royal residence, the $37 million Royal Lodge, despite Charles’s longtime urging. Andrew has lived in the Windsor residence since 2004, moving in after a round of renovations completed after the death of the Queen Mother, the prior resident. He moved in with his two daughters nearly 20 years ago, and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson also moved into the property in 2008.
Now that Andrew is no longer a senior royal, following the legal scandal surrounding his involvement with Jeffrey Epstein and the rape allegations made against him, Charles has now reportedly offered Andrew Frogmore Cottage, the home from which this past January. Andrew, however, is reportedly refusing to make the move to the relatively smaller royal property.One source toldthat “relations between the king and his brother have never been this bad,” and that the whole discussion has “turned into a real battle which he never expected and it’s left him tired and infuriated.”
Royal Lodge was first built in 1662 as a Queen Anne-style brick lodge set on a 98-acre estate: the original cottage was later torn down and replaced by a three-story stucco-fronted home in the 1800s. The main property, a 30-room, seven-bedroom home, has remained relatively unchanged since the 1930s, though Andrew enacted renovations to bring the property up to code in the early 2000s. The estate also includes a royal chapel , a gardener’s cottage, six lodge cottages, and security accommodations.
