How Much Kate Middleton, Princess Eugenie & More Royals Pay in Rent

Prince William, Kate Middleton Support King Charles III After Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Arrest

Turns out that part of King Charles III's role as head of the monarchy is to keep calm and carry on footing the bill for many of his relatives.

Because a newly released National Audit Office report revealed the 77-year-old, who oversees the private funds known as the Privy Purse, has been picking up the tab not just for the collection of homes he shares with wife Queen Camilla, but also the royal residences inhabited by son Prince William and his wife Kate Middleton, brothers Prince Edward and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, plus his daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice.

Lawmakers requested the audit after Charles stripped Andrew of his royal titles and evicted him from his residence at the 30-room Royal Lodge due to the ongoing allegations linking him to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

"These censures are deemed necessary," Buckingham Palace wrote in an October statement, "notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him."

The report showed that 11 working royals were able to live the palace life rent-free and some, like the 66-year-old—who's now bunking at the King's Sandringham Estate—were able to turn a profit, the former prince allowed to rent out three properties on the 98-acre Berkshire, England estate.

Just how much he pocketed, however, is a royal mystery with Margaret Hodge, a Labour member of the House of Lords and former head of Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee, lamenting that "It's shocking that the National Audit Office was not able to establish how much money Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor secured from the properties he let."

And she's not the only person refusing to keep calm.

"It shows an absolute contempt for the taxpayer, not only that Andrew was able to have a peppercorn rent for a gigantic property," detailed former Liberal Democrat lawmaker Norman Baker, "but then to make potentially millions on the side from subletting properties."

While Buckingham Palace hasn't publicly commented on the report, a spokesperson for the Crown Estate said in a statement that it "welcomes" the review "which confirms its leases with members of the royal family were agreed in line with independent, professional advice and open market valuations."

We're unlocking the truth about just who's shelling out for the royal family's palatial properties.
