It could happen to any of us: a bad lawsuit, a drop in income, the death of the one person who was keeping you afloat.

But for Prince Andrew, who grew up in a palace, 2 castles and a mansion, becoming homeless would be a spectacular fall from the grace and favours he is accustomed to receiving.

His brother King Charles is reported to have given notice that as of April non-working members of the Royal Family will find their income stream slashed to whatever counts as the minimum wage for princes, earls and others of their ilk: enough for rackety relatives to keep a ramshackle roof over their heads, and not much else.
