Prince Andrew to lose 'prince' title and move out of Royal Lodge, Buckingham Palace says
- On October 31, 2025 King Charles III initiated a formal process to remove Prince Andrew's Style, Titles and Honours, and Buckingham Palace said Andrew must surrender the Royal Lodge lease.
- Pressure rose after Virginia Roberts Giuffre's posthumous memoir alleged three encounters with Andrew, including when she was 17, and a British parliamentary committee questioned his continued residence at Royal Lodge, Windsor.
- The censures also removed honours including the Order of the Garter and Knight Grand Cross of the Victorian Order, an almost unprecedented step last seen in 1919,
- Andrew, 65, will relocate to a property on the Sandringham estate and receive private financial support from the king, while Sarah Ferguson, ex-wife, must find a new home; the Prince of Wales supports the decision.
- He paid millions in an out-of-court settlement in 2022, and YouGov found 67% backed removing Andrew's titles before the latest moves, the palace said.
