Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor Told to Quit Royal Lodge by Easter as Sandringham Move Faces Delays

Overview

  • Plans reported by multiple outlets say Andrew is expected to leave Royal Lodge by Easter, yet work at his proposed Sandringham home, Marsh Farm, may not finish in time and he is not expected to remain at Royal Lodge during any delay.
  • King Charles stripped Andrew of remaining titles and ordered him to surrender the Royal Lodge lease in late 2025 following renewed Epstein-related scrutiny, and Andrew continues to deny wrongdoing.
  • Royal biographers Robert Jobson and Andrew Lownie suggest he could seek a fresh start in the Middle East, including Bahrain, though no move has been confirmed.
  • Sarah Ferguson is seeking an independent path with a separate home and renewed commercial work rather than relocating with Andrew, according to reporting and sources cited by People.
  • A property expert says surrendering the Royal Lodge lease ends any prospect of the residence passing to Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, removing a valuable long-term asset from their inheritance.
