Ex-Prince Andrew is once again making headlines, and this time it is for reportedly dragging out his move from Royal Lodge, the 30-room mansion he has called home for decades. According to sources, the fallen royal is using a “legal technicality” to delay leaving the property. And this is despite agreeing to vacate it earlier this year.
Ex-Prince Andrew is dragging out royal lodge exit, claims source
Sources told Radar Online that Ex-Prince Andrew “is leaning on every technical step available to slow down his exit from Royal Lodge,” meaning that the move will likely extend beyond the Christmas deadline that King Charles had reportedly set. Insiders claimed this slow process avoids an uncomfortable scene during the royal family’s holiday gathering at Sandringham, where Andrew might not join the group.
The sprawling estate at Windsor has been central to Andrew’s life since the 2000s. However, King Charles has made it clear that the residence, which remains part of the Crown Estate, will not continue as his brother’s permanent home. According to palace insiders, the plan is for Andrew to relocate to a smaller property within Sandringham — one that the King has privately paid for as an effort to avoid using public funds.
Even as Andrew’s royal titles were formally removed and his name struck from the official roll of the peerage, he still retains his spot in the line of succession. One senior royal source claimed, “He understands the succession rules protect him, and he is holding onto that for dear life.” Besides, the position cannot easily change without formal legislation across several Commonwealth countries.
Public opinion has strongly supported the King’s actions to distance the royal family from Andrew, with polls showing that a strong majority backs the decision to remove his titles. Moreover, Ex-Prince Andrew’s social circle appears to have grown smaller, and several members’ clubs in London have reportedly revoked his memberships.
