Here's why Andrew must be kicked out of Royal Lodge - I'm sorry the Queen didn't sort him out

PRINCE Andrew needs to be kicked out of Royal Lodge and it's a shame the late Queen didn't sort out his situation before she died, a royal expert has claimed.

The disgraced Duke of York, 64, currently resides at the Windsor Great Park lodging in Berkshire, which boasts 30 rooms, a swimming pool and large grounds.

Andrew has been refusing to vacate the property despite reports suggesting that King Charles wants him to move to Frogmore Cottage.

Speaking on The Sun’s Royal Exclusive show, historian and biographer Hugo Vickers has now suggested Andrew "needs to live somewhere smaller".

During an exclusive conversation with The Sun’s Royal Editor, Matt Wilkinson, Hugo was asked what he thinks the King should do with Prince Andrew and Royal Lodge.

The problem is Prince Andrew does not do ‘smaller.“ He was indulged by the queen all his life. One of her few lapses in judgment.

[donnalayton]

Andrew, cannot afford to pay for repairs that it needs. So he needs to move out. Plus he is no longer a working Royal.

[twstdpeppermnt]

The late Queen already bought him a house when he married sarah. It was called Sunning Hill Park. for some reason Andrew let it go to ruin when the queen mother died as he moved into royal lodge. It has since been demolished. I say just kick him out and either give him frogmore or tell him to buy his own

"Poor Chap?" The man has delighted in a profligate and dissipated lifestyle for all of his adult years. and we are supposed to feel sorry for the reprobate? 🙄

[FlexibleFlyer]

The sense of entitlement, the whinging, the have been present throughout Andrew's life. He's done some shady things, and it's time that he stands on his own two feet. Has it ever occurred to him to earn his own keep? We see this problem with Andrew and also Harry. Life of the indolent, life of the demanding. Another royal that's a waste of air and space.

[barbaraaldam]

When you live all of your life as a self entitled brat it will come back and bite you eventually. No one has a good word to say about him because has always walk all over everyone he came across

[leighDrusllalyle]

Andrew should leave Royal Lodge voluntarily and with dignity rather than being unceremoniously booted out

[elainebines]

He doesn't need Royal Lodge. Not even royal duties anymore.

[MaureenSmith-du]

Why does he want a place that size?Just being stubborn and up himself.

When you let a toxic snake into your home you no doubt will get bit - or at least set up with gross slander, false accusations, public abuses, bullying, harassment, intimidation, humiliation, terrorization and threats.

[maria-lqxd]

It’s the equivalent of 2 people living in a whole block of council flats. Ridiculous

[stephenwilliams]

Give them a one bedroom flat in Peckham in a nice high rise council block where the lift fails regularly and the stairs to the 14th floor saves gym membership.

[iqkokkd]

Agree he has disgraced the family and literally serves no purpose other than being a leech on the Royal family. Is there some reason he cant get a job?

[Tweedy.]

Prince Andrew is such an arrogant man, and so self entitled and nasty in my opinion .. He does not need Royal Lodge , he is lucky he was not charged with any crimes, and I believe he should retire quietly somewhere more befitting to his fall from grace as he is no longer fit to be a working member of The Royal family ... . King Charles really needs to stand firm and have him physically removed if he will not leave by his own volition . . Andrew has always been arrogant and pompous,

[BJRooney-zbmy]

A stipulation in Prince Andrew's lease requires him to keep up the maintenance on Royal Lodge. It specifies inside & outside painting along with much more. Andrew has not been able to meet that requirement and it seems repair, including a new roof, is now urgent. He is also a single man, a non-working royal, living in a 30-room lodge that he can't afford. I believe the King is correct... Andrew needs to move into a home he can afford that suits his low income.

[stacyludden]

King Charles needs to deal with this prior to William's reign. It is not fair to leave this unfinished business to his son to deal with. Just like its not William's job to deal with King needs to get a backbone....

[TheMouse-gcft]

What does it say that a 90 yr old woman didn’t have enough time to sort out her 60+ yr old son? Infantilized forever!

[GreenYoshi]

Charles will need multiple guards to physically remove him if he doesn’t budge. I know he doesn’t want to fight his brother but Andrew has to respect him as King. 👑

[hildabraud]

Is Andrew 9th or 10th in the line of succession? This is way too much accommodation for two people. A wonderful royal residence that has been allowed to fall into disrepair. Neither of the occupants are working royals or worthy of such a residence due to their own failures. Time to move on to a smaller retirement home. Jmho.

[ceciliaM]

I hear Andrew has always been mean and a bully to the staff.
