Allies of Prince Andrew have told The Royalist that the only way Prince Andrew will leave Royal Lodge is if he’s paid “fairly,” in the region of “a couple of million,” for the unexpired 50 years remaining on his lease.

Andrew’s demands for a cash payout may go some way to explaining why King Charles appears becalmed in his efforts to resolve the Royal Lodge issue, despite briefings last week that a deal would be done quickly.
