Fresh Royal Lodge pain for Prince Andrew as cracks and mould spread after Charles 'axes £1million allowance'
New images have surfaced showing that Prince Andrew’s 31-bedroom Windsor residence, the Royal Lodge, estimated to be worth around £31 million, is in a state of disrepair.
The pictures show signs of decline with black mould, dampness, and flaking paintwork on the exterior, including outbuildings and the gatehouse; furthermore, external walls are suffering from mould damage and decay.The Duke of York has lived at the property since 2003 when he inherited it following the death of the Queen Mother.
This news comes amid speculation that King Charles has put a stop to Andrew's annual £1 million allowance due to tension between the siblings.It is believed that King Charles has instructed The Keeper of the Privy Purse to cease these payments.
At the age of 64, Andrew is thought to have previously invested approximately £7 million into refurbishments of the Royal Lodge lease in 2003 after the passing of the Queen Mother.Since becoming monarch, it is said that King Charles has made several attempts to convince Andrew to vacate the lodge for Frogmore Cottage, which was previously home to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
