With a sprawling 59 acres and a reported eight bedrooms, it would be a grand place for Kate, William, and their three children: Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7, to settle down.

Andrew has a 75-year lease that was signed by the Crown Estate when Queen Elizabeth II was alive, so it would have been hard for Charles to overcome that legal document.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThere were rumors late last year that Prince Andrew found funding to stay in the home via his daughter, Princess Beatrice.

He barely goes out, he\u2019s not that welcome anywhere,\u201d an insider claimed. \u201cSo, it\u2019s got to be family, and the obvious person is the King.
