Prince Andrew seen smiling as he exits Easter Service at Windsor with Sarah Ferguson, Princess Anne and other members of the Royal Family. The family attended the service at St George's Chapel alongside King Charles and Camilla.
Why should the disgraced Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Fergie remain in the 30-room Royal Lodge at Windsor while our future King, Prince William , and his wife Catherine live in more humble surroundings at four-bedroom Adelaide Cottage nearby?
Even the people he could once count as his most staunch supporters admit Andrew has become ‘a prisoner of his own pride’.The duke was seen with a companion exercising his steed around the Windsor estate One of the reasons William and Kate moved their primary residence from their 20-room, four-storey home in Kensington Palace to Adelaide Cottage in 2022 was that it was a compact family house and just a ten-minute walk from Windsor Castle, where his beloved grandmother, the late Queen, spent most of her time in the years before her death.
All this at time when King Charles has made it clear that Andrew's occupancy of Royal Lodge is neither desirable nor appropriate for his vision of a more slimmed-down, less profligate monarchy. Meanwhile he is refusing to move into the nearby - much more modest - five-bedroom Frogmore Cottage, the property once occupied by Prince Harry and Meghan.The King has been trying to get Andrew to leave the Royal Cottage, where the duke reportedly spends his days in a darkened room watching television
He doesn’t even have a job, just a paltry £20,000-a-year naval pension. And that’s highly unlikely to change. He is, frankly, unemployable, according to friends. A man who whiles away his days sitting at home in a darkened room watching TV, as Fergie keeps herself to herself in her private wing. ‘It can be done the tidy or untidy way. It can be done with grace and dignity or it can be forced upon him. It’s all rather sad but as things stand life at Royal Lodge is set to become increasingly uncomfortable for the duke.’
