Control over that money now rests with King Charles III, who is seeking to slim down the British monarchy. Prince Andrew is said to be “distraught” over the prospect of being “evicted” from his palatial home in Windsor, with a dramatic cut to his yearly earnings looming in April. Prince Andrew is reportedly “distraught” over a decision from the King that could force him out of the palatial mansion he’s occupied for years.

Andrew, 63, has reportedly been telling friends that he might have to move out of his royal estate by September.

The same goes for other members of the family, such as Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. Andrew paid his accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre more than £12m in an out-of-court settlement last year. Since then he has spent about £7.5m repairing and renovating the property.
