Prince Andrew's agreement safeguards Eugenie and Beatrice's future home

In the United Kingdom, Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice are reportedly in a position to maintain their living arrangements at Royal Lodge, Prince Andrew's residence, provided he adheres to specific agreements concerning the property. Andrew entered into a 75-year lease with the Crown Estate in 2003, which entails a commitment to cover substantial upkeep and refurbishment costs. This agreement has become increasingly contentious as King Charles wishes for Andrew to downsize due to ongoing conflicts regarding the property. Royal Lodge requires significant renovation, previously estimated at around £7.5 million, and has been described as needing a considerable amount of work, including updates to both the internal and external conditions. To secure the future of both Eugenie and Beatrice in Royal Lodge, Andrew must keep up with maintenance costs stipulated in the 2003 lease, which includes taking on refurbishment costs at his own expense. Property experts suggest that as long as Andrew continues to meet these financial obligations, King Charles and the Crown Estate won't be able to oust him and his daughters from the property, which they have expressed a desire to inherit.
