Andrew comes out fighting in feud with King after Beatrice and Eugenie dragged into drama

Prince Andrew has come out fighting in his feud with King Charles despite suffering a challenging week being at the centre of a new Amazon Prime series.

The Duke of York’s career-ending interview with Emily Maitlis is at the centre of the three-episode series A Very Royal Scandal.

They said: “It’s a great relief that this new show appears to have sunk without trace.

“He felt he came out of the first film rather well.

“It seemed hard to believe there would be any appetite for another go-round and that looks to be the case.”

They continued: “(Andrew is) getting on with his own life and hopes these endless attacks on him will stop.”

The insider also revealed that Prince Andrew has no intention of moving out of the Royal Lodge despite his feud over the royal residence with King Charles.

A separate source said regarding the King’s reaction to the news series: “People writing films and books about His Majesty and his family is something he is well used to.

“He won’t have watched it. It’s water off a duck’s back to him.”

Prince Andrew signed a 75-year lease agreement with the Crown Estate for the Royal Lodge in 2003.

Andrew is refusing to leave Royal Lodge and plans to pass his lease over to his daughters after his death.

The lease has 54 years remaining on it and Andrew plans to honour the terms of the agreement.

Currently, the Duke of York plans to bequeath the lease to Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie so that they can use the property after his death for the remaining years of the agreement.

King Charles has been funding private security guards based at the Royal Lodge that cost £3million a year since Andrew lost his armed police protection but this will come to an end next month.
