Prince William' purge plans revealed
Prince William is eyeing slimming down the Royal Family, as he targets two members of the firm in his alleged plan.
As reported by RadarOnline, the Prince of Wales is targetting Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie.
The royal was not happy with the rent situation that was revealed by the UK National Audit recently, which revealed that King Charles pays the rent for Princess Beatrice's St. James Palace apartment and for Princess Eugenie's Kensington Palace home, Ivy Cottage.
The report sparked immense backlash for Andrew Mountbatten-Winsor's daughters, who fear "being cast aside like their parents", claimed a source.
Sharing Prince William's reaction to the report, the insider noted, "He thinks it's egregious for non-working royals to be feasting off the royal pie like this."
According to the outlet, William is allegedly planning to slim down the royal family once he takes the throne.
"Charles needs to trim the fat, and nixing Beatrice and Eugenie's free rent is a no-brainer said the source.
