The 75-year-old monarch has reportedly conveyed a resolute message to his estranged son, Prince Harry, signaling that he will not be welcomed back to the royal residence, according to recent reports.
This development coincides with mounting pressure from King Charles on Prince Andrew to vacate the 30-room Royal Lodge in Windsor, with previous suggestions that Andrew relocate to Frogmore Cottage.
Royal expert Tom Quinn explained to The Mirror, "For King Charles, compelling Andrew to move to Frogmore serves multiple purposes – it communicates to Harry that as a private citizen and former working royal, he is permanently excluded from Frogmore."
Quinn elaborated on the implications of King Charles' decision regarding Andrew, asserting, "It sends a clear message to Andrew that his past indiscretions have rendered him ineligible for luxurious accommodations."
Furthermore, Quinn emphasized, "Finally, it allows for suitable preparations to be made for the residence of utmost importance – William and Kate. Charles is adamant that Royal Lodge, as the sole residence on the Windsor royal estate grand and spacious enough, be reserved for his heir."
Meanwhile, despite facing expulsion, Prince Andrew is adamant about retaining his opulent mansion. The Duke of York has embarked on renovations to safeguard his Windsor abode, displaying his determination to retain possession of the £30 million property, where he resides with his former spouse, Sarah Ferguson.
