Amid the escalating tensions within the royal family, the Duke of Sussex is reportedly deeply troubled by his father’s latest decisions in the midst of their ongoing rift.

The rift has now extended to a new conflict emerging between the monarch and his estranged brother, Prince Andrew, concerning the Royal Lodge.

The king is adamant that Prince Andrew vacate the 30-room mansion and relocate to Frogmore Cottage, the former residence of the Sussexes before they stepped back from royal duties.

Last year, the Sussexes were asked to leave the Windsor property.

Despite currently residing in their lavish £12 million home in Montecito, California, the royal couple had invested £2.4 million in renovating the four-bedroom Frogmore Cottage during their time in the UK.

However, the Duke of York, who has lived in Royal Lodge in Windsor for over two decades, is firm in his stance to remain in his long-term residence.

Tom Quinn, speaking to the Mirror, revealed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had hoped to make Frogmore Cottage their permanent UK base.

The Duke held onto the hope that eventually, they would be allowed to return to the Windsor property, despite the strained relationship between his father and brother.

Quinn highlighted the strong emotions involved, particularly the king’s displeasure at the idea of Prince Andrew moving to Frogmore.

The prospect of Prince Andrew relocating to Frogmore Cottage deeply troubles the Duke of Sussex.

The king’s insistence that Prince Andrew must leave Royal Lodge, where he has resided for many years, makes this scenario a real possibility.

The tension within the royal family continues to mount, with each member holding firm in their positions.

The ongoing disagreements and shifting dynamics within the royal family have captivated the public’s attention, with speculation rife about the future outcomes of these conflicts.
