Prince Andrew faces increasing pressure over his residence at the Royal Lodge, a historic estate in Windsor that has fallen into disrepair, marked by visible mold and structural damage. King Charles has significantly reduced Andrew's financial support, including his annual allowance and security funding, leaving Andrew to manage the costly estate on his own. Despite the financial strain and pressure to downsize to a smaller residence like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s former home, Andrew remains adamant about staying at the Royal Lodge, citing his ability to fund his own security. His refusal to leave has been attributed to his perceived stubbornness and desire to retain what he feels is his last remaining asset. The situation has been compounded by Andrew's diminished royal status following allegations related to Jeffrey Epstein, which led to his withdrawal from public life. The tension between Andrew and Charles reflects a broader royal struggle to manage the fallout from Andrew's controversies.
