Despite the extraordinary suggestion that the King could cut off his brother’s utilities in the row over Royal Lodge in Windsor, Andrew should stick to his guns and stay put. That’s the view of Daily Mail Diary Editor Richard Eden, who says that the Duke should resist Charles’ plans to throw him out and move in the Prince and Princess of Wales ‘Prince Andrew thinks, quite rightly, “why on earth should I move? I spent all my money doing up this house”’ he tells our royal talk show Palace Confidential. ‘He’s got a 75 year lease, so he’s got it for life and I think he’s outraged at the idea that he should have to move at all.’ For now, neither side will budge, and that’s not a good look argues the paper’s royal editor, Rebecca English, ‘There is stalemate, so where do they go from here? The King’s made really clear, “we feel that you should move out”. Andrew’s saying, “no way I’m doing that, I took on that role in good faith”,’ she says. ‘Then there are the optics. Is it right that in this day and age, is it right that a non-working royal should be living in a fabulous 30-room house, just him and his wife?’
