Arrogant Prince Andrew is too pompous for his own good, there’s NO place for him in Royal Family, expert says
The King, 75, has redoubled efforts this year to evict his brother who shares the home with ex-wife Sarah Ferguson.
Insiders have branded Charles and Andrew's stand-off the "siege of Royal Lodge".
Palace sources say the King, who is funding Andy's life, could "reconsider the levels of support he is willing to provide" if he refuses all offers of a new home.
The shamed Duke of York, 64, who will never return to public duty after paying millions to settle an abuse case with a Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking, has refused for 18 months the King's pleas to move out.
The Sun exclusively revealed Andrew had rejected the chance to move into Frogmore Cottage last year after Harry and Meghan were served with eviction.
Andrew, who will never return to royal duties over his links to dead peado billionaire, is still refusing to budge pointing out that he is in possession of a 75-year lease.
But a friend told The Times: "It can be done tidily or untidily. It can be done with grace and dignity or it can be forced upon him. It’s all rather sad.
"But as things stand, life at Royal Lodge is set to become increasingly cold and uncomfortable for the duke.
"The only question now is when he will realise that he has become a prisoner of his own pride - and that handing back the keys will afford him far greater comfort, and the continued support of his family."
It comes as Charles is said to be unwilling to keep paying out of his own pocket to fund Andy's lavish lifestyle.
Sources close to Prince Andrew insist he will not leave Royal Lodge citing a 75-year lease on the property that does not expire until June 15, 2078.
Friends of the Duke last night he has a "cast iron" lease and sees no reason to give up his home he has lived in for the past 20 years.
Palace sources have insisted Prince Andrew "remains the King's brother" and is welcome at family events but will never return to public duty.
A Buckingham Palace spokesman refused to comment.
