Prince William and Kate Middleton are NOT happy that William’s disgraced uncle Prince Andrew is still living in the Royal Lodge—a giant mansion in Windsor that he pays “one peppercorn” a year for.
Royal author Tina Brown says the couple want to fully “banish” Prince Andrew and his ex wife, Sarah Ferguson, and that they “can’t abide” the pair and want them to “disappear.” Especially since the Royal Lodge is just a stone’s throw from William and Kate’s new home, Forest Lodge.
In her Fresh Hell Substack (via the Daily Mail), Tina writes, “Unless Andrew can be persuaded to banish himself to a cottage on the Balmoral estate or a cushy villa on a Dubai golf course, his scowly, jowly visage will keep seeping back into the national consciousness.”
She adds, “How do you disappear a 6-foot-tall, 190-pound, 65-year-old man in robust good health who has an iron-clad contract to live in the Queen Mother’s former mansion, a short neigh from Windsor Castle and just four miles from the new “forever” home of Prince William and Kate, who can’t abide him?”
Tina also confirms that Prince William won’t allow his uncle at the coronation, and says, “The thornier question, perhaps approaching faster than anyone is indelicate enough to discuss, is whether, in the fullness of time, Andrew will be allowed to attend his brother, the king’s, funeral.”
