First, Prince Andrew was deprived of the costly security staff. Now King Charles III. initiated the next step: He finally throws Andrew out of the palace.
Little contemplative news at Christmas: Prince Andrew is no longer wanted behind the palace walls. The British “Sun” claims to have learned from an insider that Andrew has to vacate his office and is no longer allowed to use the palace address on his letterhead.
In addition, all of his employees who have previously worked for him are to be fired. A source told the newspaper: “All presence at the palace has officially ended. The king has made it clear. He is not a working royal. He is on his own.”
It is not the first time that King Charles III. cut back on his brother: just a few months ago, Andrew was stripped of his costly personal protection, which cost British taxpayers around three million pounds a year.

2019 was already the royal end for Prince Andrew. It was then that his connections to pedophile entrepreneur Jeffrey Epstein became public: Virginia Giuffre accused Prince Andrew of molesting her when she was only 17 years old.
This was followed by an abuse lawsuit, which Prince Andrew was just able to avert with an out-of-court settlement and a payment of around 14 million euros to Giuffre in early 2022.

From mom’s darling to outcast: Prince Andrew’s fall
But in the wake of the allegations, he resigned from the British royal family as an active royal in 2019. At the beginning of 2022, military ranks and royal patronage were revoked.
During the Queen’s lifetime, Prince Andrew had it even better as he was the monarch’s favorite son. She often showed mercy to him and only bowed down to public pressure and stripped him of his titles.
King Charles III however, announced right at the beginning of his reign that he wanted to streamline the monarchy. He doesn’t stop at his own family either.
