King Charles fires private security team at Prince Andrew’s Royal Lodge mansion
King Charles has fired the security team stationed at Prince Andrew’s longtime lavish mansion as the disgraced royal reportedly refused to “downsize” from the property.
Charles told the ten-man detail that their contracts would not be renewed in October at the 31-room Royal Lodge home, according to the Sun.
“They are all working the final weeks of their contract till the end of October. It’s not thought anyone is being lined up to replace them,” a palace inside told the outlet.
“Everyone is speculating this means the Duke will have to leave the Royal Lodge because what other reason could there be to take his security away?”
The disgraced Duke of York, 64, has lived at the $38 million Royal Lodge, located on the grounds of Windsor Castle, since 2004 after he signed a 75-year lease agreement the previous year.
