Prince Andrew has reportedly enlisted big brother Prince Charles to help pay his settlement bill.The Duke of York, 62, must pay a reported £7million to Virginia Roberts Giuffre but according to a friend of Andrew, he has no funds.The source told The Sun: “[Andrew] has no income or money to repay a bank loan so the family is the only way to guarantee the payment.” With nine days to go before the deadline, Prince Charles has reportedly lent his unemployed sibling £7million, but he’s not the only royal to bail out the duke.The Queen reportedly funded his eye-wateringly expensive legal battle and has chipped in with the settlement bill, too.
