Prince Andrew, who is at odds with his brother King Charles over his Royal Lodge, is on the verge of making his two daughters' wishes come true.
The disgraced Duke of York was deprived of his royal patronages and titles following his scandal with convicted paedophile Jeffery Epstein, and King Charles has ordered him to vacate his 30-room castle.
However, Andrew is determined on keeping the Windsor estate and leaving it to Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. However, the Duke's desire for his daughters' inheritance is "dependent on Prince Andrew's lease," according to a property expert.
"As long as it's agreed and written in the lease, Prince Andrew can pass Royal Lodge onto Beatrice and Eugenie for the rest of the term," property expert Natalie Mitchell told GB News.
She advised that if everything is in order with Andrew's lease and there are no other problems, he might just need to sign one document. Earlier this year, it was alleged that Beatrice and Eugenie are eligible to inherit Royal Lodge under the terms of the Duke of York's lease.
"What rights one daughter has over another would be down to what's stated in the lease itself," according to her. "What happens after that will depend on what the King and the Crown Estate's board agree to, but it mustn't breach The Crown Estate Act 1961."
"The Act has a list of restrictions in place, including selling any part of the estate or creating leases that are longer than 150 years," Mitchell told reporters.
