How Prince Andrew keeps paying the bills after King Charles cut him off
Andrew, 64, has lived at the 30-room mansion on the Windsor estate since 2003
Prince Andrew’s finances are once again under scrutiny following new reports suggesting his contact with Jeffrey Epstein lasted longer than he previously admitted.
The revelation has reignited questions about how the disgraced Duke of York continues to fund his lavish lifestyle, and maintain his residence at Royal Lodge, despite King Charles reportedly cutting his financial support.
Andrew, 64, has lived at the 30-room mansion on the Windsor estate since 2003.
Insiders say he remains there under a long-term lease with the Crown Estate that runs until 2078, effectively protecting his right to stay despite pressure from the King to downsize.
When Andrew first took on the property, much of the cost was paid upfront, securing his continued residence even after his royal income was slashed.
Following Queen Elizabeth II’s death, King Charles is said to have withdrawn his annual financial allowance, leaving Andrew to cover rising upkeep costs on his own.
Sources suggest the Duke still benefits from private investments and business ties he established years ago, including ventures in China, the Gulf States, and a now-suspended partnership with a Dutch tech firm.
