This means Fergie will be forced to fend for herself and make new living arrangements.<\/p>\n<p>In an unprecedented move announced on Thursday, the Palace stated that the former Duke of York would now be known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and would be required to vacate Royal Lodge, <a data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|Link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/royal\/1886750\/prince-andrew-home-royal-lodge-pictures\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">his long-time Windsor residence worth a whopping \u00a330 million.<\/a> The decision marks the final step in King Charles\u2019s efforts to distance the monarchy from ongoing controversies surrounding his younger brother, 65.<\/p>\n<p>Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, have shared Royal Lodge since 2008, despite divorcing in 1996.<\/p>\n<p>The pair have long maintained what many viewed as a modern royal arrangement, continuing to share Royal Lodge while co-parenting their daughters, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/princess-beatrice\" data-link-tracking=\"InArticle|AutoLink\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"

former Duchess of York, who officially lost her title earlier this month, is reportedly seeking private accommodation after almost 20 years at the Windsor residence.<\/p>\n<p>Buckingham Palace confirmed that formal notice had been issued for Andrew to surrender his lease and \u201cmove to alternative private accommodation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The statement also reiterated the <a

after the King\u2019s decision to have the pair vacate the 30-bedroom Royal Lodge.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/latest\/princess-beatrice\"
