King Charles decides to give new power to Prince Edward to teach Andrew lesson

Prince Edward, who was promoted to the title of The Duke of Edinburgh in 2023, could receive big honour from his eldest brother King Charles amid feud with Prince Andrew.

The 75-year-old has seemingly decided to teach a new lesson to non-working royals Prince Andrew and Prince Harry with his bombshell move, according to a new report.

Prince Edward, the youngest child of the late Queen Elizabeth II, has massively increased his workload amid ongoing royal health woes as King Charles and Princess Kate are fighting cancer. 

The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh have proved the loyalist royals to King Charles as Edward undertook 297 royal engagements in 2023, the third largest number of any royal that year, while his wife Sophie followed at 219.

Prince William and Harry's father is said to be looking to reward the Edinburghs for their contributions to the Crown and the royal family amid ongoing crisis.

Royal commentator Richard Kay wrote for The Mail: "Charles has entertained the thought of offering Royal Lodge to his youngest brother Prince Edward."

the commentator went on explaining: "The two haven't always seen eye to eye but the King has been hugely impressed by the manner in which Edward and his wife Sophie have increased their workload since their elevation to Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh."

Praising the two, Richard added: "The couple have filled in the many gaps created by the absence of both Kate and himself while they underwent cancer treatment."

"The Edinburghs, however, have their own home, Bagshot Park, which they hold on a long lease from the Crown Estate, and insiders suggest that transplanting them into Royal Lodge could dramatically disrupt family dynamics," according to the commentator.

Royal Lodge - a property on the Windsor Estate - is currently occupied by Prince Andrew, Edward's older brother. The King is keen for the Duke of York to downsize and leave his home, where he has lived since 2003. 

However, Prince Andrew is thought to be refusing to leave Royal Lodge, citing the fact he signed a 75-year lease in 2003.

there are also speculations that the King has also decided to remove the Duke's 10-man security detail last week in a bid to oust him from the Windsor property.
