Prince Andrew's arrest on misconduct charges has exposed his precarious financial situation, with reports indicating he is left with no money following his expulsion from royal duties. The former royal, previously worth $3 million, saw his income sources dry up after his titles were stripped and business deals collapsed amid his association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Andrew's financial troubles stem from multiple sources. His annual navy pension of £20,000 was his only public income stream after royal duties ended. He reportedly received £13 million in official payments over four decades of royal service and a £250,000 annual allowance from Queen Elizabeth, which ceased after her death. Additional income from a British businessman linked to a wealth management company and a £3.85 million commission from Kazakhstan business deals have also been scrutinized.

Royal author Robert Hardman described Andrew as being in a "poverty-stricken exile" following tensions with King Charles. The king's statement supporting the investigation and Andrew's loss of royal titles have effectively ended his ability to maintain his lavish lifestyle. With his daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice unable to inherit the Royal Lodge property, which reverts to the Crown Estate, Andrew faces complete financial isolation. His situation represents a dramatic fall from grace for the once-powerful royal figure.
