Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie will not inherit Royal Lodge, the grand Windsor estate long associated with their father Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. Reports now confirm that the thirty million pound property will return fully to the Crown Estate, ending any hope that it might pass down the family line.
The development comes as Andrew prepares to leave the residence he has occupied for more than two decades. His departure follows years of public pressure linked to his association with Jeffrey Epstein, a relationship that cost him his royal roles, his public standing, and now his long term home.
Royal Lodge was once viewed as a potential inheritance for Andrew’s daughters. He secured a seventy five year lease in 2003 and invested heavily in the property. He even continued living there alongside his former wife Sarah Ferguson. For years, it was quietly assumed that the home might one day belong to Beatrice and Eugenie. That assumption has now ended.
