King Charles ‘Disclaimed Prince Andrew’s £32k Indian Healer Guru Spending On Privy Purse’

King Charles has reportedly given his brother Prince Andrew another disapproval by refusing to pay an annual £32,000 bill for an Indian healer guru.

The rejected expense report is another embarrassment for the prince, who is reportedly considering “telling his side” in a new exclusive interview.

The Duke of York submitted the expense report to the Privy Purse – the King’s private income which is largely derived from the Duchy of Lancaster – and it is said that he thought it would be signed without contradiction.

However, the king has told his brother that he will have to pay for the guru’s services out of his own pocket.

Andrew, 63, has been a client of the Indian healer for a few years, sources say Sun newspaper.

Prince Andrew has been the subject of controversy over sexual assault allegations, speaking out in an interview with Emily Maitlis in November 2019

He reportedly treats the prince with chants, massages and holistic therapy at Andrew’s mansion of grace and favour. And he is believed to be living in the £30 million Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park for up to a month.

Before her death in September, the expense account was paid by the mother of Charles and Andrew, the late Queen.

But the Duchy of Lancaster’s annual revenue of around £24 million now belongs to the King alone.

A source told the Sun that the treatment is “very expensive” and that while the late monarch has “liked spoiling her son over the years,” the king is “much less inclined” to fund Andrew’s extravagances, especially given the cost of livelihood. crisis.

Going on, the source said struggling families would not be happy with such large sums of money being paid to provide holistic treatment for non-working royals.

They said the king “thought his brother was laughing” when he saw Andrew’s expense report for the private grant for the healer.

It was reported that historically expense reports like this would be signed ‘no questions asked’, but in the era of Charles this is changing.

The Duke was stripped of his royal role by the Queen last year after allegations of sexual abuse by Virginia Giuffre.

But he can now give a historical interview again, sources say The mirrorin another attempt to clear his name.

A source close to Prince Andrew said: “Nothing is off the table.

“Andrew has been forced to give up his job and now possibly his home.”

The source added that he feels there is “little to lose” and that the prince believes he has already “paid a very high price”.

His ex-wife, Sarah, Duchess of York, has been on a whirlwind press tour of the US for her new book, A Most Intriguing Lady, referring to her former husband as “poor Andrew” last week.

She has long lamented his “demise” and banishment from public life and has previously stated that she will always stand by him.

Andrew told friends last month that he will not be able to afford the upkeep of the Royal Lodge in Windsor when Charles cuts his annual stipend of £249,000 from April. And he and ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, 63, could now face eviction from the Royal Lodge.

But Frogmore Cottage, Prince Harry and Meghan’s Windsor home from which they will be evicted, has been offered to the Andrew.

Liberal Democrat MP Norman Baker told the Sun the bill was an “outrageous use” of what is effectively taxpayers’ money.

Buckingham Palace declined to comment as the sun approached it.
