“The second payment needs to be paid and that payment is now complete. That’s it. You can be sure of it. It’s done.

The settlement now allows Andrew to sell the property and use the cash to fund his legal bills for the sex abuse allegations.

Just days after it was revealed, the Duke of York found a buyer real estate.

Chalet Helora – with indoor pool and sauna – has been on the market for 22 million Swiss Francs (£17.6 million)

A source close to the company said: “A buyer has been found and a price has been agreed.

“Things are underway. It’s not done yet. But it’s expected very soon.”

The Duke is currently waiting for the judge to decide whether Virginia Roberts Giuffre’s civil suit was dropped.

If he continues, Andrew will face a full civil trial in New York for claiming he sexually abused Ms Giuffre three times between 1999 and 2002 when she was 17.

Andrew has always strongly denied any charges against him.

Now 38, Ms Giuffre has filed a lawsuit against emotional distressed Andrew.

Last week, Andrew’s sex-trafficking friend, Ghislaine Maxwell, was found guilty of helping to solicit Teenagers vulnerable to Epstein’s ex-lover’s assets for him to sexually abuse him between 1994 and 2004.
