Holy smokes.
I mean, holy SMOKES.
(How I wish Karen were still alive to see this - we'd be girl talkin' for hours with our jaws on the floor.)
King Charles went nuclear on his naughty, nasty, former playboy of a brother.
He held nothing back and took everything from his younger brother, the *check notes and gasps* FORMER 'Prince Andrew.
Why?
Andrew lied.
He told Queen Elizabeth and - at the time - Prince Charles that he'd cut off all contact with disgusting, disgraced, convicted sex offender, and unalived millionaire purveyor of young women, Jeffrey Epstein. Emails have surfaced with proof he did not, and, with the release of Virginia Guiffre's posthumous autobiography, have made the situation untenable for the sovereign.

He's also going to be referred to now as the less impressive-sounding Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and must remove his portly presence from the Royal Lodge, where he's been living rent-free for decades post-haste.
Disgraced royal and Jeffrey Epstein pal Prince Andrew will no longer be a prince and will have to move out of his Royal Lodge home, Buckingham Palace announced Thursday.
The late Queen’s son will have his title stripped and now be known as “Andrew Mountbatten Windsor,” the Palace said in a statement provided to BBC News.
Andrew will also be forced to vacate his taxpayer-subsidized royal home of more than 20 years.
The announcement from the palace was unsparing.

It does make one wonder if there is another shoe to drop with so radical a move.
‘I suspect the King knows something spectacular is about to break.’

One of my MOST British girlfriends, who is also a royal historian of tremendous renown among her followers, went nuts. This is such cataclysmic a move.
Folks, I’m leaving home!! I’m all alone in the office now. I’ll rush home so I can comment more on this EARTHSHATTERING news about Prince Andrew. Or should I say…Mr Mountbatten Windsor. Jesus. Didn’t know King Charles had it in him! See you soon!

And there has long been talk that these moves would come the second William was king if Charles was too kind to lay the hammer down on his brother for the disrepute and dishonor he brought to a family that really has tried to be circumspect in all things.
I think I see William’s hand here. The new surname (no hyphen), not being allowed to gracefully leave the Royal Lodge (the whole, “we’ve begun the process of terminating the lease”), the no-chance at Frogmore Cottage.

...This is Michael Corleone territory. “Today we settle all family business.”
Another interesting side note she brings up is, 'King Charles is stripping him of his ‘Prince’ title!! Which is Andrew’s by virtue of having been born to a sovereign. YIKES.'
This has happened in other European royal families, but never in the House of Windsor.
It is a radical redefinition of what “royalty” means. It’s almost meritocratic.

Now you have to EARN AND KEEP the honour of being a Prince/ss. https://t.co/BpsXTsz61X
And what is also interesting is who this development affects - someone who has acted badly, embarrassed the family, and walked away repeatedly, but believes he can be a prince forever because he was born one.
Yeah - THAT loser.
'I was told Prince Harry could never lose this title because you can't do that to a Prince... well, it turns out you can!'
Prince Andrew has been "stripped" of his title by King Charles and "kicked out of Royal Lodge."

Andrew also has little income, having been left nearly nothing in everyone's wills, as he was meant to be a ward of the state for the rest of his life.
BREAKING NEWS: Prince Andrew has agreed to leave Royal Lodge, after King Charles demanded he break his 75 year-lease. The Crown Estate will now give the former Duke of York an estimated half-million pounds for forcing the turnover.

Having to wonder where the next paycheck is coming from is going to be quite a shock to the formerly royal system.
The other loser, still known as 'Prince,' and his dumb wife might want to reassess their lifestyle as they haven't been particularly successful in any of their misadventures, either.
And they might just have to do some regular fellow, 'Mountbatten Windsor' kind of belt-tightening soon.
Heh.
