Before Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was kicked out of the Royal Lodge, Princess Beatrice's husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, reportedly helped the ex-royal with his mansion.
According to Daily Express, Mapelli Mozzi, who is a property developer, was helping his father-in-law rehabilitate his mansion. Over the years, there have been reports of the Royal Lodge needing extensive repairs, but the project will have to go on without the ex-duke. Mapelli Mozzi's role in the project was presumably axed due to his in-laws being kicked out of the estate.
In recent years, Mountbatten-Windsor has lived in the shadows of the royal family due to his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. The ex-prince resigned from duties after Epstein's victim Virginia Giuffre accused the former Duke of York of assault, but the scandal resurfacing led to a new set of consequences. In Giuffre's posthumous memoir, the author wrote in detail about her alleged abuse.

Following the book's release, Buckingham Palace confirmed Mountbatten-Windsor will no longer be able to call himself "prince" or Royal Lodge home. Now, Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson will have to make new living arrangements.
"His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the style, titles and honors of Prince Andrew. Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor," Buckingham Palace said in a statement. "His lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence. Formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease and he will move to alternative private accommodation."
"These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him," the statement continued. "Their Majesties wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse."
Both Mountbatten-Windsor and Ferguson have avoided the public amid scrutiny.
