A row has reportedly erupted between working and non-working Royal Family members after news that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been asked to vacate Frogmore Cottage

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will be evicted from their royal residence, with reports suggesting the 10-bed Windsor property could be given to the disgraced Prince Andrew.

And the move, now confirmed by the Sussex camp, has created a schism between working royals and non-working members of The Firm, according to reports.

An insider told The Sun: There is now a clear dividing line between the working members of the Royal Family and the non-working members like the Yorks and Sussexes.

The King's plans, to boot the Stateside pair and supposedly let Prince Andrew move in, is reportedly backed by working royals including Queen Consort Camilla, 75, and the Prince and Princess of Wales.

However, on the other side, non-working royals, including Andrew, 64, plus his daughters, Princesses Beatrice, 34, and Eugenie, 32, are reportedly against the move.

Prince Andrew himself is reported to be resisting the move having been booted from his larger Royal Lodge mansion.

A source told The Sun: Charles wanted to start after his Coronation with the issues of Harry and Meghan and Andrew put to bed.

The situation has dragged on far too long and he wanted to act decisively and quickly.

According to a quote from a friend of the couple in the Telegraph, the couple are not happy about the need to hand over the keys to their UK outpost and had made that place their home.

Inside the wider grounds of Windsor Castle, the couple are understood to have felt that Frogmore Cottage was the sole-surviving safe place for them and their children in the UK.

They renewed the lease on the property last March with it having been given to the couple by the late Queen in 2018.

The gaff used to be five separate apartments for staff working at the grounds, however, in 2019 it was converted into a single home to the tune of a sweet 2.4million out of the Sovereign Grant.
