A source quoted in recent
\nreports<\/a> said that the former prince had accepted that the move
\nmarked a significant change in his circumstances. \u201cHe has come to
\nterms with the fact that this is his future,\u201d the source said. \u201cHe
\nunderstands he must make the best of it and move on with his
\nlife.\u201d<\/p>\nSecurity around Marsh Farm has been increased in recent weeks,
\nwith a six-foot perimeter fence erected and additional monitoring
\nintroduced. The restricted airspace surrounding Sandringham is also
\nbelieved to have been extended to cover the farmhouse.<\/p>\n
Mr Mountbatten-Windsor\u2019s relocation follows his agreement to
\nsurrender the long lease on Royal Lodge, which he held for more
\nthan 20 years. The decision was taken after sustained pressure on
\nthe King to resolve his brother\u2019s living arrangements following the
\nDuke of York\u2019s withdrawal from public duties.<\/p>\n
In October last year, he was stripped of his remaining royal
\ntitles and honours. Buckingham Palace said at the time that the
\ndecision reflected \u201cserious lapses of judgment\u201d and reiterated the
\nKing\u2019s sympathy for victims and survivors of abuse.<\/p>\n
The former Prince has consistently denied all allegations made
\nagainst him in connection with his former association with the late
\nfinancier Jeffrey Epstein.<\/p>\n
It is understood that he will fully vacate Royal Lodge before
\nhis birthday in mid-February, at which point the keys will be
\nformally returned to the Crown Estate.<\/p>\n
His former wife, Sarah Ferguson, who has continued to live at
\nRoyal Lodge despite their divorce in 1996, is also expected to
\nleave the property, though her future accommodation has not been
\nconfirmed.<\/p>\n
Locals in the Sandringham area have reported increased activity
\nat Marsh Farm in recent weeks, with builders working on
\noutbuildings and construction vehicles visible on nearby roads. The
\nfarmhouse lies close to a public route, though screening and
\nlandscaping work is believed to be planned.<\/p>\n
Once complete, the move will mark the end of Mr
\nMountbatten-Windsor\u2019s long residence in Windsor and the beginning
\nof a far lower-profile life in Norfolk, away from the public
\nscrutiny that has followed him for much of the past decade.<\/p>\n
