Ex-Prince Andrew’s reported reaction during his eviction from Royal Lodge has turned into a new flashpoint inside royal circles, with a source claiming the former Duke of York was furious when told to leave the Windsor home. It’s no surprise that Andrew was accustomed to high status and respect. Hence, exiting the home he had always lived in reportedly came as a tough blow. Thus, prompting him to remind everyone that he was the Queen’s son.
Ex-Prince Andrew used late Queen’s name when told to ‘get out’ of Royal Lodge, says source
The Sun exclusively reported ex-Prince Andrew’s alleged reaction to his eviction from the Royal Lodge. An insider described tense discussions around Andrew’s move out of the royal establishment. They said he tried to push back by invoking his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II.
A royal insider told The Sun, “He refused to leave or take any responsibility.” They claimed, “When he was told to get out, he was so arrogant and deluded he repeatedly shouted, ‘But I’m the Queen’s second son, you can’t do this to me’.”
Moreover, the source added, “It is extraordinary he chose to use the Queen’s name in his defence. No one is quite sure if the reality of his dire situation has hit home even yet.” Meanwhile, another insider told the outlet that the conversations stretched over a long period. They suggested that these conversations did not stay calm throughout, claiming Andrew “did not want to leave.”
Royal Lodge is a large property in Windsor Great Park. It has long been associated with Andrew and his former wife, Sarah Ferguson. And, now, The Sun reported that talks continued for months as officials tried to resolve the situation and move the pair on. Andrew has relocated to the Sandringham estate for now, ahead of a permanent arrangement.
Whatever the full picture looks like behind palace doors, the report paints a clear picture of a former senior royal figure who was used to tradition. It suggests he was resisting a decision he did not want to accept. From what the source claimed, ex-Prince Andrew’s reaction during his eviction from the Royal Lodge included invoking the late Queen’s name as his shield. This happened when the final call came.
