  "account": "Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been awarded £302,000 ($400,000) in compensation after surrendering his lease on Royal Lodge, according to the Crown Estate. The former Prince Andrew relinquished his royal titles and was evicted from his home at Royal Lodge near Windsor Castle earlier this year due to scandal surrounding his friendship with Jeffrey Epstein, a convicted sex offender. The Crown Estate manages lands owned by the king for the benefit of taxpayers. The eviction came after widespread public outcry and evidence from U.S. Department of Justice documents related to the Epstein investigation. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor vacated the property ahead of schedule in February and relocated to a residence on the king’s private Sandringham estate.",
