Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor<\/a> could be left temporarily homeless after his disgraced exit from the royal fold because a new home in Norfolk “may not be ready” in time to receive him. The former Duke of York<\/a> was exiled from his 30-bed Windsor estate last year after years of controversy surrounding his friendship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Reports suggest he will vacate Royal Lodge<\/a>, where he has lived since 2003, by this Easter, with plans to relocate to a private property on King Charles’s Sandringham estate in Norfolk. The plans could meet a snag, however, because of ongoing work at the five-bedroom Marsh Farm, which “needs much more work done before it’s ready to be lived in, potentially leaving Andrew without a place to stay for a short while”, according to Hello!.<\/p>\n

Royal commentators think it’s unlikely the Queen’s youngest son will be allowed to stay in Windsor during the interrim period. “The royals are hoping to draw a line under the Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor controversy in 2026,” biographer Robert Jobson said. “Whether it ends the lurid speculation about him, only time will tell, but it is doubtful.”<\/p>\n
