Prince Andrew could move into ex-wife Sarah Ferguson £5million house as he faces eviction from Royal Lodge

PRINCE Andrew could move into a mews house bought for £5million by ex-wife Sarah Ferguson.

The Sun on Sunday revealed the pair may have to quit high-maintenance Royal Lodge in Windsor when the King slashes his brother’s annual £249,000 grant in April.

And last year The Sun told how Fergie had paid cash for a picturesque house in London’s ultra-smart Belgravia.

She had it totally overhauled, and sources close to her said it was to be an “investment property” for daughters Beatrice and Eugenie.

An insider said: “It has been finished to a really high standard, but now suddenly it has all gone quiet about moving a tenant in.

“They are looking to keep it empty to use themselves. It’s a far cry from a mansion on the Windsor estate, but this is their only London property.”

The pad is just a short distance from late billionaire paedo Jeffrey Epstein’s former mansion where Andrew was infamously pictured with his sex abuse accuser Virginia Giuffre.

He and Fergie’s previous homes include Sunninghill, in Ascot, Berks.

In 2007, they sold it to a Kazakh oligarch for £3million more than the £12million asking price.

It later emerged Andrew had been acting as a fixer in business deals for the buyer.

In December, the Duke of York finally sold his ski chalet in Verbier, Switzerland, for around £19million.
