Podcast appearances and mentions of royal lodge

Following his announcement that he would step back from public royal roles in late 2019/early 2020, the House of Commons and its members began to publicly question the accountability and oversight of members of the royal family. Several MPs raised concerns over Prince Andrew's continued benefits from the Crown Estate, his security protection funded by taxpayers, and the lack of transparency around his finances and relationships—especially given his links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The Commons, traditionally reticent to query royal affairs, saw backbenchers and opposition figures press for measures such as parliamentary debate on his conduct and the possibility of formal motions to strip his titles.While the government repeatedly declined to initiate formal debate or legislation at that time, citing constitutional convention and the royal family's desire to handle internal matters, the pressure in the Commons continued to build. MPs from multiple parties proposed or supported private-member bills aimed at enabling Parliament to remove titles and honours from royalty, and select-committee scrutiny was mooted around his lease of the 30-room Windsor residence, Royal Lodge. In essence, the Commons signalled a shift: even if direct action was deferred, the principle that royals should not be completely shielded from political accountability had gained ground.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Four years of meticulous research by author Andrew Lownie went into this book. And at the same time he was threatened with legal action and retaliation if he published. What has emerged is a detailed account of Andrew and Sarah's conduct over the years which has resulted in King Charles stripping his younger brother of his titles and honors and evicting the couple from the Royal Lodge.

Bombshell allegations emerge that Queen Elizabeth knew Andrew brought prostitutes to Buckingham Palace for years but did nothing—as a Church of England vicar questions if she had a "blind spot" for her favorite son. Andrew spends his final Royal Lodge days "ranting to himself" while Sarah Ferguson drowns her fears in a purpose-built bar called The Doghouse, talking about "dark forces" targeting them. The disgraced royal must now bow to his own daughters and faces demands from Congress while making outrageous staffing demands before his Sandringham exile. Sarah reportedly considers selling Diana's private letters as a "secret weapon." Meanwhile, Poppygate erupts as Meghan attends a Kardashian party without a remembrance poppy while Harry wears one, sparking fury. William reveals Charles denied his request to scale back duties during "the hardest year" and feels betrayed by the Beckham knighthood timing that stole his Earthshot thunder. Plus: the floodgates open as palace staff come forward, Hollywood declares the Sussexes "hopeless," and Kate gets BBC name controversy at Remembrance service.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's last business venture, Pitch@Palace Global, is officially being dissolved — ending his attempt to play royal dragon in a Dragons' Den world.Meanwhile, Sarah Ferguson hides out in her private bar, “The Doghouse,” drowning stress in champagne and fear of eviction from Royal Lodge. Reports claim she's even considering selling private letters from Princess Diana to stay afloat, a move that could ignite royal fury. And in the latest twist, Buckingham Palace quietly restores Andrew's long-lost hyphen, confirming his surname is once again Mountbatten-Windsor — or as some might say, Mountbatten-Dash-Disaster.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

A bombshell new account alleges Andrew Mountbatten Windsor brought prostitutes into Buckingham Palace for years while staff who complained were warned to keep quiet, with royal biographer Andrew Lownie claiming even the late Queen knew and nothing was done. As Deep Crown dissects how the system really works, Andrew digs in over his eviction from Royal Lodge, demanding staff, space and financial guarantees that William is unlikely to honour. Add in a congressional summons he is said to be terrified of, a panicking Sarah Ferguson, a glitchy royal website still calling him The Duke of York, and towns wrestling with street names that suddenly feel toxic, and it is clear the Andrew problem is nowhere near solved.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Palace Intrigue delivers the most disturbing royal collapse yet as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor spends his final Royal Lodge days "padding around and ranting and muttering" to himself while Sarah Ferguson takes refuge in a secret bar called "The Doghouse" behind the mansion, confiding fears about being "targeted" due to Epstein links. Insiders reveal the separated couple sleep "at different ends of the thirty-room home" and only meet at mealtimes for "intense conversations" about their uncertain futures.Fergie has become "massively on edge," warning staff about "dark forces potentially targeting him" and leaning on loyal employees to "stay late to keep her company" as she drowns her fears in The Doghouse.

Prince Andrew, Duke of York attempted a comeback into public royal life after formally stepping back in 2019, but the efforts were swiftly frozen by the senior royal family amid mounting scandal. After his disastrous BBC interview and the civil settlement with Virginia Giuffre in 2022, Andrew quietly hoped to rehabilitate his reputation and re-emerge at low-key royal events. Instead, in October 2025 the palace confirmed he would no longer use his Duke of York title or royal honours — a decision reportedly made in close consultation with his brother King Charles III and his son Prince William, Prince of Wales, who both viewed Andrew's presence as a continuing distraction to the monarchy.Despite murmurs of a comeback strategy — appearances at charitable events, discreet patronage involvement — the monarchy drew a hard line. Andrew's titles, honours and privileged residence at Royal Lodge near Windsor Castle were revoked or set for removal, signalling that any revival would not be sanctioned. Charles' decision to strip Andrew of his official capacity not only ended the comeback effort but demonstrated the institution's priority: preserving its integrity over personal loyalty. Analysts say the move cements an irreversible cut-off and makes any future public role for Andrew extremely unlikely.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Prince Andrew has managed to retain his residence at Royal Lodge in Windsor after securing funds from an undisclosed benefactor. This financial support emerged following King Charles III's decision to cut Andrew's £1 million annual allowance and discontinue payments for his private security. The legitimacy of these funds has been confirmed through a financial review led by Sir Michael Stevens, Keeper of the Privy Purse.The Duke of York's ability to maintain his 31-room estate has been a point of contention, especially given his diminished role within the royal family. Despite the financial challenges, Andrew's new source of income has enabled him to uphold his living arrangements, highlighting ongoing complexities within the House of Windsor regarding royal privileges and financial independence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Reveal who stumped up millions for stay at Royal Lodge, Prince Andrew told... as Duke says he can pay for Windsor home and avoid eviction by King | Daily Mail Online

Prince Andrew's future within the British Royal Family appears increasingly constrained due to his tarnished reputation and strained familial relationships. His association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and the subsequent settlement of a civil lawsuit with Virginia Giuffre have led to his withdrawal from public duties and the stripping of his military titles and royal patronages. Despite these measures, Andrew has resisted efforts to relocate from the 30-room Royal Lodge, a property requiring extensive and costly maintenance. King Charles III has reportedly cut Andrew's annual allowance and security funding, leading the Duke to secure a mysterious £3 million lifeline to maintain his residence, raising concerns about the source of these funds and the propriety of his associations.Public opinion remains largely unfavorable toward Prince Andrew, with many viewing his attempts to retain royal privileges as emblematic of entitlement and a lack of accountability. His refusal to vacate the Royal Lodge, despite financial pressures and the property's deteriorating condition, has been criticized as a display of arrogance and detachment from public sentiment. Experts suggest that Andrew's chances of returning to public life are negligible, advising that he should focus on leading a quiet, private existence to avoid further damaging the monarchy's reputation.   The ongoing tensions within the royal family, particularly between Andrew and King Charles, underscore the complexities of managing personal relationships alongside public responsibilities and the imperative to uphold the integrity of the institution.(commercial at 7:45)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:What does the future hold for Prince Andrew - with disgraced royal entrenched at Royal Lodge | Daily Mail Online

It's Monday, November 3rd, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Blind Pakistani Christian man falsely accused of blasphemy against Muhammad Nadeem Masih, a 49-year-old blind Christian in Pakistan, has been arrested and charged with blasphemy against the false prophet Muhammad, punishable by death, reports Morning Star News. Martha Yousaf, his nearly 80-year-old mother, said that Waqas Mazhar, a Muslim man, often harasses her son, sometimes extorting money from him and other times throwing water on him or calling him names. Mazhar, the Muslim, works as a parking contractor in Lahore, where her blind son earns a meager income providing a weighing scale for petty merchants. She said, “Sometimes kindhearted visitors would also give him more money due to his disability, but the park's Muslim workers used to steal it from his pocket.” Some, including Mazhar, had also taken loans of various amounts from the Christian blind man but refused to return the money despite his repeated requests. When Masih went to work on August 21, Mazhar and other mean Muslims refused to let him set up his makeshift stall, roughed him up and took him to the police station where the police, to their shame, mercilessly beat the blind Christian man and forced him to admit to the false blasphemy charge. In John 15:18, 21, Jesus said, “If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated Me first. …  They will treat you this way because of My name, for they do not know the One who sent Me.” Human Rights Watch said, “Blasphemy [against Muhammad] accusations are increasingly weaponized to incite mob violence, displace vulnerable communities, and seize their property with impunity.” Pakistan ranked eighth on Open Doors' 2025 World Watch List of the 50 most dangerous countries for Christians. King Charles III strips Prince Andrew of title and housing Last Thursday, King Charles III made a shock announcement  confirming that he will strip Prince Andrew, his brother, of both his title and his housing at the Royal Lodge, a lavish 30-room property, which sits in close proximity to Windsor Castle, reports the New York Post. In Andrew Lownie's biography Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, he documents that during a taxpayer-funded trip to Thailand, “Andrew had 40 prostitutes brought in the space of four days. This was all enabled by diplomats.” Appearing on Good Morning Britain, Lownie said this about Prince Andrew. LOWNIE: “He's been caught lying time and time again. I suddenly found researching my book, you couldn't take a single thing he said without checking it. And I think the King [Charles III] has realized that he hasn't been telling the truth. And so, the evidence against Andrew is overwhelming.” Plus, Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide earlier this year, claimed in her posthumously-released memoir, Nobody's Girl, that Prince Andrew sexually assaulted her three times when she was 17, which he has denied. Numbers 32:23 says, “Be sure your sin will find you out." Democrat Senator John Fetterman: “We have to be better than this!” On Darkins Breaking News, Democratic U.S. Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania  took issue with his fellow Democrats for voting to shut down the U.S. government 13 times in a row. FETTERMAN:  “We're a Democrat, we're not allowed to just open this up. I mean, then our party has bigger problems than I thought we might have already. That's not controversial. Pay everybody. It's a failure. “And to all of the viewers, I'm apologizing that we can't even get together and just open up our government.” REPORTER: “[Minority Leader Senator Chuck] Schumer said, ‘This gets better politically every day for Democrats.'  What do you say to that?” FETTERMAN:  “Ask the hungry people on Saturday. Americans are not leverage. This is not some game show about who's winning or whatever. We have to be better than this.” As a result of the Democrats' refusal to fund the government, 41 million Americans, who receive food stamps now, will not receive them starting this past Saturday. Plus, the pleas of the largest federal workers' union fell on deaf ears, reports NBC News. Speaker Johnson contrasts Trump's wins with Democrat clowns Appearing on Sean Hannity's TV talk show, House Speaker Mike Johnson, a Republican from Louisiana, provided a contrast between President Trump's successes of delivering tax cuts, a strong border, a reduction in crime and world peace with the Democrats in the U.S. Senate who have voted 13 times to shut down the government. JOHNSON: “What stands out tonight is the stunning contrast of what we're seeing. History is being made. “Here's President Trump showing peace through strength, using his power and position to bring peace to the Middle East. I mean, a truly massive, historic foreign policy achievement, returning hostages, restoring security to Israel, setting a foundation for lasting peace, and reducing taxes on hard-working Americans at the same time and ending the border crisis and ending the crime crisis, and reducing fraud, waste and abuse in government, and now settling international conflicts all around the globe. “Here are the Democrats on Capitol Hill acting like a bunch of clowns. They're trying to lie to the American people. They're trying to play politics with government funding, and real Americans are being harmed. I think there is such a stark contrast. “I'm not sure there has ever been such a stronger contrast between two political parties, the Republican Party is delivering for the American people and the Democrats trying to make a show out of this.” The 13th U.S. Senate vote on October 28th was 54-45, with only three members of the Democratic caucus voting to reopen the government, reports The Hill. They include Senators John Fetterman of Pennsylvania, Catherine Masto of Nevada, and Angus King of Maine, an independent who caucuses with Democrats.    It needed 60 votes to advance.  The "60-vote rule" in the Senate refers to the cloture vote needed to end a filibuster, which is a tactic that allows the minority party to delay or block legislation.  Initially, after the first cloture rule was adopted in 1917, ending a filibuster required a two-thirds majority or 67 votes. In 1975, the threshold was reduced to the current 60 votes or three-fifths majority. Trump flirts with nuclear option to end Senate filibuster President Donald Trump has flirted with the idea of the so-called nuclear option which would deep-six the cloture vote altogether, enabling the majority party to pass legislation with a simply majority vote. On TruthSocial last Thursday, he wrote, “It is now time for the Republicans to play their ‘TRUMP CARD,' and go for what is called the Nuclear Option — Get rid of the Filibuster, and get rid of it, NOW! “WE are in power, and if we did what we should be doing, it would IMMEDIATELY end this ridiculous, country-destroying ‘SHUT DOWN.'”  However, President Trump does not appear to have enough votes from within the Republican caucus to end the filibuster. The Democratic shutdown is animated, in part, by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York's concern that Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York has a commanding 21 percentage point lead over Schumer in a hypothetical match-up in a Democratic Senatorial primary for 2028, reports Newsweek. This is the second longest government shutdown in American history. The longest one lasted 34 days during the first Trump administration, reports CBS News. 61 Planned Parenthood abortion centers have closed in 2025 And finally, Troy Newman, president of the pro-life group Operation Rescue, had some great news, reports LifeNews.com.  He said, “61 Planned Parenthood locations in total (including referral centers) have shut their doors since our 2024 survey — a record number.” The ripple effect of President Trump's Big, Beautiful Bill is saving lots of babies from abortion. Planned Parenthood was defunded $600 million of taxpayer money for a year which has resulted in these inevitable closures. Speaking of Prophet Jeremiah in the womb, God said, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.”  (Jeremiah 1:5) That divine statement is true of each of us.

The downfall of Prince Andrew evolved over more than a decade, beginning with his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Initially dismissed as mere poor judgment, the relationship became indefensible after Epstein's 2008 conviction and the release of court documents in 2014 linking Andrew to Epstein's trafficking network. The real collapse began in 2019 after his disastrous BBC Newsnight interview, where Andrew appeared unremorseful and detached from reality while denying ever meeting Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of sexual abuse. The public backlash was swift and brutal, forcing him to step back from royal duties, lose numerous military and charitable titles, and face widespread condemnation across the UK and abroad.The second phase of Andrew's downfall solidified in 2022 when he reached an out-of-court settlement with Giuffre, reportedly paying millions to avoid trial—an act widely viewed as an admission of guilt in everything but name. His exile deepened under King Charles III, who moved to strip him of all remaining titles and honours in 2025 and remove him from the Royal Lodge. Once a favored son of Queen Elizabeth II and decorated naval officer, Andrew has become a symbol of privilege without accountability—a man who tried to bluff his way through scandal but ultimately folded under the weight of his own arrogance and denial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prince Andrew's future within the British Royal Family appears increasingly constrained due to his tarnished reputation and strained familial relationships. His association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and the subsequent settlement of a civil lawsuit with Virginia Giuffre have led to his withdrawal from public duties and the stripping of his military titles and royal patronages. Despite these measures, Andrew has resisted efforts to relocate from the 30-room Royal Lodge, a property requiring extensive and costly maintenance. King Charles III has reportedly cut Andrew's annual allowance and security funding, leading the Duke to secure a mysterious £3 million lifeline to maintain his residence, raising concerns about the source of these funds and the propriety of his associations.Public opinion remains largely unfavorable toward Prince Andrew, with many viewing his attempts to retain royal privileges as emblematic of entitlement and a lack of accountability. His refusal to vacate the Royal Lodge, despite financial pressures and the property's deteriorating condition, has been criticized as a display of arrogance and detachment from public sentiment. Experts suggest that Andrew's chances of returning to public life are negligible, advising that he should focus on leading a quiet, private existence to avoid further damaging the monarchy's reputation.   The ongoing tensions within the royal family, particularly between Andrew and King Charles, underscore the complexities of managing personal relationships alongside public responsibilities and the imperative to uphold the integrity of the institution.(commercial at 7:45)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:What does the future hold for Prince Andrew - with disgraced royal entrenched at Royal Lodge | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prince Andrew has managed to retain his residence at Royal Lodge in Windsor after securing funds from an undisclosed benefactor. This financial support emerged following King Charles III's decision to cut Andrew's £1 million annual allowance and discontinue payments for his private security. The legitimacy of these funds has been confirmed through a financial review led by Sir Michael Stevens, Keeper of the Privy Purse.The Duke of York's ability to maintain his 31-room estate has been a point of contention, especially given his diminished role within the royal family. Despite the financial challenges, Andrew's new source of income has enabled him to uphold his living arrangements, highlighting ongoing complexities within the House of Windsor regarding royal privileges and financial independence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Reveal who stumped up millions for stay at Royal Lodge, Prince Andrew told... as Duke says he can pay for Windsor home and avoid eviction by King | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Prince Andrew has finally been stripped of every last royal title and honor he once clung to like a lifeline. King Charles III, evidently tired of cleaning up his brother's messes, used his royal prerogative to remove Andrew's styles, ranks, and knighthoods—everything from “His Royal Highness” to the Duke of York and beyond. The disgraced royal, now simply Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, has also been ordered to vacate the lavish Royal Lodge, marking a total fall from grace for the man who once strutted around as the Queen's favorite son. The move is being described as unprecedented, but in truth, it's been a long time coming. After years of scandal, arrogance, and shameless denial over his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, the crown finally decided that Andrew's dead weight was too heavy to carry any longer.For Prince Andrew, this wasn't just a fall from grace—it was a full-scale implosion of everything he thought made him untouchable. Even stripped of his titles, he's still clinging to denial like it's his last shred of nobility, pretending the world just “doesn't understand.” The man who once swaggered around royal circles with smug entitlement now stands exposed as the cautionary tale of what happens when arrogance meets consequence. His downfall isn't tragic—it's poetic justice. He built his own downfall one disastrous decision at a time, from his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein to his laughable denials and public meltdowns.

Prince Andrew's finances are in shambles, the byproduct of arrogance colliding with reality. Once buoyed by royal stipends and taxpayer-funded perks, he's now reportedly been cut off by King Charles and left to fund his own lifestyle—an impossible task for a man with no visible income. His allowance, security funding, and access to public resources have all dried up, leaving him to somehow maintain a 30-room estate at Royal Lodge that costs millions a year in upkeep. The irony is rich: the same man who used to swagger about his “birthright” is now fighting eviction and relying on family mercy to avoid complete humiliation. The façade of privilege is cracking, and what's underneath isn't nobility—it's insolvency in designer shoes.To make matters worse, his financial ventures have been a carousel of failure. His investment firm, Urramoor Limited, quietly folded after years of losses. His Swiss chalet debacle ended in debt, court disputes, and embarrassment. And with every door to legitimate income slammed shut, whispers have grown louder about how exactly Andrew bankrolls his existence. His finances are described by royal insiders as “opaque,” and the public is beginning to question whether those still helping him are doing so out of pity or fear of what he might reveal. Either way, the Duke of York has become the broke poster child for royal excess—living proof that you can't outrun disgrace, even in a palace.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

It's been a week that saw Britain's king strip his brother Andrew - formerly Prince Andrew - of his last title, and ask him to leave the Royal Lodge, just days after the release of Virginia Giuffre's posthumous memoir.A week where Donald Trump and Xi Jinping met - Trump calling their 100-minute summit “an outstanding meeting” - as Beijing agreed to pause its rare-earth export curbs in a diplomatic truce. A week of horror in Sudan: door-to-door killings of unarmed civilians as paramilitary forces captured El Fashar following a 500-day siege. And a week of devastation in the Caribbean, where a Category 5 hurricane ripped across islands — Jamaica's prime minister warning this could be the “storm of the century.”

Britain's King Charles has begun the process of removing his younger brother's "prince" title and told him to vacate the Royal Lodge in Windsor. It comes as controversy swirls over Andrew's friendship with the late child sex offender, Jeffrey Epstein, and allegations of sexual assault by Virginia Giuffre. In a statement, Giuffre's family call her "an ordinary American girl who brought down a British prince". Andrew has denied, and continues to deny, all allegations made against him.

In an historic and unprecedented move, King Charles III has officially stripped his brother, Prince Andrew, of all royal titles, honours, and privileges — ending his public role in the monarchy once and for all.

In recent days a campaign group called Republic has announced it has instructed lawyers to investigate Prince Andrew for potential legal action over allegations of sexual assault, corruption and misconduct in public office connected to his past ties with Jeffrey Epstein and the claims made by his accuser Virginia Giuffre. The group says if sufficient evidence is found, it may proceed with a private prosecution in the UK — an “unprecedented step,” they say, given that traditional criminal investigation avenues have repeatedly declined further action.Alongside the legal moves, Prince Andrew is also under institutional pressure: a parliamentary watchdog has publicly queried his use of the Windsor-Estate property known as Royal Lodge, pointing to concerns about value-for-money and privileges of his tenancy under the Crown Estate lease. This signals a broader erosion of the informal protections he once enjoyed. While Andrew continues to deny all wrongdoing, the renewed scrutiny from both public bodies and private campaigners suggests that the legal and reputational stakes for him have risen significantly.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew 'faces private prosecution' over allegations of sexual assault, corruption and misconduct in public office | Daily Mail Online

Prince Andrew's downfall plays out like a tragic nature documentary — the story of a once-proud royal creature who mistook privilege for power and arrogance for immortality. For decades, he thrived in the sheltered ecosystem of the British monarchy, shielded by wealth and the shadow of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II. But his association with Jeffrey Epstein introduced a parasite into that protected environment, exposing the rot beneath the royal veneer. What began as a symbiotic relationship between two predators quickly turned toxic. When Epstein fell, the delicate ecosystem around him collapsed, leaving Andrew exposed and unadapted to the harsh new climate of public accountability.His attempt at survival — the infamous BBC interview — became his undoing, a bizarre display of delusion that only deepened his isolation. Once surrounded by privilege and protection, Andrew found himself exiled within his own habitat, reduced to a sad relic pacing the confines of the Royal Lodge. Stripped of duties and dignity, he serves now as a living fossil — a cautionary specimen of arrogance untempered by awareness. In nature, as in scandal, survival belongs not to the well-born, but to those who can evolve. Prince Andrew, unable or unwilling to adapt, has been left behind — the echo of a species that believed itself immune to extinction.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Prince Andrew's latest demand has drawn widespread ridicule after reports revealed that he's only willing to move out of the 30-room Royal Lodge in Windsor if he and Sarah Ferguson are each given separate replacement homes. The disgraced Duke is reportedly pushing for Frogmore Cottage—the former residence of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle—for himself, and Adelaide Cottage—currently used by Prince William and Princess Catherine—for Ferguson. The proposal is being described as an “absurd trade-off,” effectively turning what should have been a downsizing into a double housing upgrade. His insistence comes despite mounting pressure from King Charles III for him to vacate Royal Lodge, where he remains under a 75-year lease paying what has been described as a “peppercorn rent.”The demand highlights the tone-deaf entitlement that continues to define Andrew's post-scandal life. Rather than accept a single, smaller residence, he's attempting to leverage his position for even more royal property—despite being stripped of public duties and embroiled in reputational disaster over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Critics have blasted the move as a shameless attempt to cling to privilege and status while ignoring public outrage. The optics are particularly bad given the ongoing financial scrutiny of the royal family and the contrasting humility shown by other royals. Andrew's refusal to simply move out underscores how detached he remains from reality—a prince still playing power games in exile from relevance.to contact mebobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Prince Andrew will only give up his royal residence if one massive demand is met

The fact that Prince Andrew hosted Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell, and Harvey Weinstein together at a shooting party at his Royal Lodge estate is nothing short of grotesque. You've got a convicted pedophile, his notorious fixer, and one of Hollywood's most infamous sexual predators all rubbing shoulders with a royal — and this wasn't some random social accident. It was a deliberate gathering of privilege, power, and moral decay. The timing makes it even worse: Epstein would be arrested just eight days later. The entire event reeks of the entitled arrogance that has defined Andrew's downfall — a man so insulated by his own delusion that he thought nothing of entertaining predators under the Queen's roof.What this shooting weekend really exposes is how the elite operate in their own lawless orbit, where accountability doesn't exist and reputation is protected at all costs. These weren't just casual acquaintances; they were connected through networks of money, influence, and shared secrecy. The absurdity of it — a prince firing shotguns with the architects of modern depravity — shows that the rot wasn't just within Epstein's world, but in every institution that gave him cover.
