ANDREW HOMELESS!

King evicting brother from $36M royal lodge in final push to sever all ties with dirty duke

-

SEX CREEP Prince Andrew is being evicted from a hunting lodge on the Windsor Castle grounds by older brother King Charles, who wants to exile the dirty Duke of York to the Middle East, where he’ll be out of the public eye and the monarchy’s hair, royal courtiers say.

Desperate and cash-strapped Andrew, 63, is now in a total panic and whining he’ll be forced to live like a commoner — without hunts and posh shooting parties — if he continues to live in Britain, courtiers tell GLOBE.

But Charles, 74, isn’t cutting his ego-crazed sibling any slack and intends to slash Andrew’s allowance from the Sovereign Grant this year. The annual grant — delivered every April — consists of tax monies given to support the royal family. The monarch divides the cash, and Andrew’s slice of the pie is going to be much, much smaller, courtiers say.

Andrew is also being squeezed after losing an additional $300,000-a-year private allowance from his mom, Queen Elizabeth, who died in September. While he inherited cash from her estate, Andrew has no income other than his $27,000-a-year Royal Navy pension, insiders say.

“Simply put, the Duke of York cannot afford to live like a prince,” a courtier says. “His brother, the king, has no intention to support him. Charles believes Andrew was coddled by their mother and it’s time for stringent action to end the embarrassm­ent to the royal family.”

Andrew will be forced to leave the $36 million Royal Lodge near Windsor Castle by June, insiders say. He shares the 30-room royal residence featuring 98 acres, stables and

a swimming pool with his exwife, Sarah Ferguson.

“Charles doesn’t care where they go — as long as it’s far away,” the courtier says. “His Majesty has been trying to arrange for Andrew to settle in Bahrain, Qatar or one of the other Arab emirates where the duke already has connection­s and his history of sleazy sex allegation­s won’t be held against him.”

But in Britain, Andrew is a social pariah after being caught up in a sex scandal involving his pedophile pal Jeffrey Epstein’s teenage harem. Andrew settled out of court — for an estimated $12 million — with Epstein sex slave Virginia Giuffre, who claimed he raped her when he was 41 and she 17.

Andrew denies Giuffre’s charges — but he was stripped of his royal rank and banned from any official duties as the full extent of his friendship­s with Epstein and his madam, convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, became public.

Recently, blustering Andrew began threatenin­g legal action to overturn his settlement with Giuffre and clear his name. But courtiers insist that ship has sailed — and Andrew’s out on his ear once and for all!

“Unlike his rogue son Harry, Charles will not extend an olive branch to his brother,” the courtier claims. “Harry suffered childhood trauma after losing his mother, Diana, and the king takes some measure of responsibi­lity for his son’s pain.

“But Andrew is another story. His life is fueled by a sense of entitlemen­t — and Charles believes his brother truly lacks honor and will continue to be a stain on the family name. Informal exile is the final break.

“His Majesty never wants to see another photo of Andrew exercising his horses on palace grounds!”
