Prince Andrew could "create a headache" for King Charles if Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie move into his royal residence.
Speaking on The Royal Record, GB News' Royal Correspondent Cameron Walker and GBNews.com's Royal Editor Svar Nanan-Sen, discussed reports that Andrew could pass on his lease to Beatrice and Eugenie even after he dies.
The King has requested that the Duke of York move out of the Royal Lodge and into a smaller property, with Frogmore Cottage seen as the most likely option.
However, Beatrice and Eugenie could be dragged into the "royal feud" if Andrew decides to pass down the lease.

Speaking on the podcast, Svar said: "There are reports that Andrew intends to pass on his lease to Beatrice and Eugenie even after he dies.
"Now, whether that's something Beatrice and Eugenie would be interested in, is a completely different topic.
"They're very settled and also, it would involve them being dragged into this royal feud.
"But if that is his intention, then it means he's planning to see out his time at Royal Lodge and then create a further headache for King Charles in this messy feud."

PAAndrew is said to have refused to budge and is under no obligation to vacate the Royal Lodge with over five decades remaining on the lease he signed in 2003.
The Duke of York is believed to have originally wanted to pass the lease to his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, who currently lives at the royal residence with him, but he is unable to do so due to a clause in the agreement with the Crown Estate.
Cameron added: "The other issue might be because the Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, his ex-wife, also lives within Royal Lodge.
"And moving from a 30 bedroom house into a cottage where you might be, you know, kind of in the same room or forced to be kind of in the same lounge all the time.

"Will that cause issues? I guess we'll find out."
The lease has 54 years remaining on it and Andrew plans to honour the terms of the agreement.
Currently, the Duke of York hopes to bequeath the lease to Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
This would mean that they can use the property after his death for the remaining years of the agreement.
