Prince Andrew booted out of Buckingham Palace

The disgraced Duke of York has been dealt a fresh blow by his brother, King Charles, amid speculation he’s lobbying to return to royal duties.

King Charles has told Prince Andrew he can no longer use Buckingham Palace as his London accommodation.

Prince Andrew’s nights with his beloved teddy bears at Buckingham Palace have drawn to a close — after he was told he can no longer use his suite of rooms.

The disgraced Duke of York, 62 — who has already been forced to close his office there — enjoyed sleeping at the Palace with a selection of meticulously arranged cuddly toys, reports The Sun.

However all his treasured possessions have been shifted out while renovation takes place — and they will never return now his older brother Charles is King.

Andrew has been told that if he wants to sleep in London he must move into new digs, with nearby St James’s Palace a ­possible option.

The Palace is undergoing a £369 million (A$644 million), ten-year rebuilding project which includes gutting and renovating Andrew’s suite, known as the Chamber Floor.

Last year, The Sun revealed Andrew liked to surround himself in his royal bed with five teddy bears or other stuffed animals, which had to be in specific positions.

Staff drew a sketch on how they should be arranged, including a teddy holding a heart, hippos, plus cushions with “Daddy”, “Ducks” and “Prince” on them.

If they were not set out as he liked, he would throw a tantrum, it was claimed.

Mementos of his Royal Navy helicopter days were also dotted around, including upturned military shell cases which served as ashtrays.

The door was labelled “The Duke and Duchess of York” years after he split from Sarah in 1992. Dozens of pics of his ex-wife, now 63, plus daughters Beatrice, 34, and Eugenie, 32, filled the suite.

It was also revealed the prince would be woken there each morning by a footman who set down a “calling tray” containing a pot of tea, china cup and saucer.

However, last January Andrew was stripped of his military roles and royal patronages amid links to the disgraced paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

He later agreed a huge payout to settle a US lawsuit brought against him by Ms Giuffre — but did not admit any crime or misconduct.

The Sun revealed on Christmas Eve that he was forced to close his Palace office and told not to use it as an address.

Meanwhile, it has been reported that Andrew has been confidently telling pals while out shooting of a big development that could restore his shattered reputation.

A source said: “He says details are about to be made public which will change people’s perceptions of him. He says that it will happen next month.”

It is understood discussions are under way to find him accommodation in London.

He is expected to keep his 31-room mansion Royal Lodge in Windsor. He was photographed driving there yesterday.
