King Charles III is reportedly ready to fund living arrangements for his younger brother, Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor. However, this comes at a cost. Sources claim that the king is ready to provide for the ex‑prince’s lavish life but only if he stays out of the public eye. The former Duke of York has been in the limelight lately because of various controversies surrounding him. Now, Andrew will have to be under “house arrest” in exchange for a comfortable lifestyle funded by his brother.
King Charles funding ex-Prince Andrew’s lifestyle in exchange for his house arrest, says source
The British monarchy faced a series of challenges after the various controversies surrounding Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor came to light. This resulted in King Charles making a decision to strip Andrew of his titles. He even ordered his brother to move out of Royal Lodge along with his ex‑wife, Sarah Ferguson.
The ex‑prince is currently staying at Sandringham Estate. He is expected to move to Marsh Farm once the renovations of the place are done. Earlier reports suggested that the former prince will have only two household staff — a chef and a valet — at Marsh Farm.
As per a new RadarOnline report, Charles would provide for his brother’s living arrangements. However, this will only happen if he stays isolated. The reports come after Andrew was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in office. While he was released after a few hours, he still remains under investigation.
Marsh Farm, where Andrew is supposed to live permanently, has been fitted with a lot of security features. A source revealed that this is to make sure that the former duke has minimal public exposure while the investigation continues.
An insider shared, “Effectively, Andrew is now under house arrest and will remain so for the rest of his life, as, in exchange, his brother will fund his comfortable lifestyle.” The source added that this is an “unofficial agreement.” However, the monarch is clear that if Andrew wants to have the same lifestyle he did before, he will have to stay “locked away.”
