Prince Andrew in talks with Palace to move out of Royal Lodge: Report
- On Friday, Prince Andrew is engaged in advanced talks with Buckingham Palace officials about leaving Royal Lodge, as the palace intensifies efforts to secure a voluntary handover due to his tenancy.
- Public outrage over a long-running rent-free arrangement and recent memoir revelations prompted renewed pressure, leading Prince Andrew to relinquish use of his Duke of York title last Friday.
- Documents released on Monday show previously censored rent details, revealing a `peppercorn` rent clause and Prince Andrew’s `cast iron` lease, while his millions spent on Royal Lodge renovations complicate compensation talks.
- The Public Accounts Committee has begun contacting the Crown Estate and Treasury for answers, while symbolic penalties like removing Andrew’s royal banner at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle, increase urgency as Buckingham Palace seeks to avoid a drawn-out inquiry.
- Potential solutions include moving Prince Andrew to Sandringham or Balmoral as privately-owned options, but his preference to stay near London or Windsor and compensation disputes involving the Crown Estate and Treasury complicate talks.
