"Andrew Lownie, the biographer who has spent years researching Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, said that there's lots more still to come. His book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York landed just before Andrew's fall from grace. Following King Charles' decision to strip his brother of his royal titles, Lownie said: I think there's lots more still to come, lots more, and it will be even more damaging material."
"But sources have told The Telegraph his now-former home is in dire need of repairs and maintenance and that Andrew may end up out of pocket if costs are deducted from his package. In Andrew's lease at Royal Lodge, it was agreed he would be paid a compensatory sum if he were to move out of the 30-room mansion before 2078. The sum decreases by 185,865 a year until 2028 meaning by moving now, he would have been entitled to 558,000 from the Crown Estate. The former prince is reportedly set to be paid a six-figure sum - but could end up with major deductions"
"US President Donald Trump feels badly for the royal family amid the fallout over Andrew's ongoing scandal. It's a terrible thing that's happened to the (royal) family, Mr Trump told reporters on board Air Force One late on Sunday. That's been a tragic situation. It's too bad. I feel badly for the family. Trump says Andrew being stripped of titles is 'tragic situation'"
Prince Andrew has been stripped of his royal titles and will be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. Reputation damage stems from his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, a controversial BBC interview, and a retreat from public duties. Royal Lodge lease terms included a compensatory sum that declines annually, meaning a move now would trigger a reduced payout; repair and maintenance costs could be deducted, potentially reducing any six-figure payment. A biographer warned of further damaging material emerging. US President Donald Trump expressed sympathy for the royal family. The Defence Secretary announced removal of Andrew's honorary vice-admiral rank.
