Prince Andrew is set to move to a new residence at the Sandringham estate worth £60 million following his departure from the Royal Lodge, as per reports. Buckingham Palace has confirmed that King Charles has initiated the process to remove all formal titles from the 65-year-old, resulting in Andrew being known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.
The Palace stated that Andrew will relinquish the lease on the Royal Lodge and relocate to a private property within the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, with expenses covered by the King’s personal funds. In an official statement, the Palace announced the formal removal of Prince Andrew’s Style, Titles, and Honours, emphasizing the decision despite his denial of the allegations against him.
Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice are expected to retain their titles under King George V’s Letters Patent of 1917. Andrew had signed a 75-year lease on the Royal Lodge in 2003, a property with historical significance and vast estate grounds featuring various amenities.
Sandringham estate, part of the royal estate since the 1860s, boasts Sandringham House as a prominent residence with numerous rooms and smaller properties within its expansive 20,000-acre grounds.
