Former Prince Andrew is set to celebrate his last Christmas at his beloved home as he will soon be vacating the property following orders from King Charles.<\/p>\n
According to royal expert Jennie Bond, the former Duke of York\u2019s feelings around Christmas are said to be especially heavy this year as he reflects on missing the royal family\u2019s Sandringham celebrations. <\/p>\n
Andrew shares the Royal Lodge with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, where they have lived together since 2008, but both will soon leave it because of their past ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. <\/p>\n
Bond told The Mirror<\/i> that the house is already being emptied, with many of Andrew\u2019s belongings removed.<\/p>\n
\u201cRoyal Lodge is said to be in quite a state, and many of his possessions have already been removed. The status of his relationship with his ex-wife, Sarah, is also up for debate,\u201d the expert said. <\/p>\n
She added that the pressure of past scandals may have also strained his relationship with Fergie, noting how Christmas often brings family tensions to the surface.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey once seemed almost inseparable, even though they were divorced. But it looks as if the strain of the Epstein scandal may have caused them to rethink their future together,\u201d said Bond.<\/p>\n
The expert continued, \u201cChristmas has a habit of heightening emotions and exacerbating family divisions \u2013 even though it\u2019s meant to be a season of goodwill. <\/p>\n
\u201cOne thing is for sure: this is the last time Andrew will spend Christmas at Royal Lodge, if that\u2019s where he chooses to stay.<\/p>\n
\u201ct has been his family home for more than 20 years and I\u2019m sure he has many happy memories of family celebrations there. And that is bound to make him feel rather sad \u2013 and probably resentful.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
