Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, brother of King Charles, has left his Windsor home following new revelations about his ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The 65-year-old former prince had hoped to stay at Royal Lodge, his residence for decades. On Monday, he was quietly moved to a cottage in Sandringham, part of the king’s Norfolk estate.
Transitional Move to Sandringham
A royal source said Andrew now lives at Sandringham but may occasionally return to Windsor during the transition. The relocation comes after King Charles stripped him of his royal titles in October 2025.
The move aims to reduce media attention while allowing Andrew to adjust to life outside Windsor.
Epstein Revelations and US DOJ Files
Recently released U.S. Justice Department files suggest Andrew maintained contact with Epstein for more than two years after Epstein’s 2008 conviction. The documents include emails and other communications.
Andrew has denied wrongdoing and says his relationship with Epstein ended years ago. Despite his denials, the new revelations have intensified public scrutiny.
Royal Family Context
Observers say the move reflects the monarchy’s effort to separate itself from the Epstein controversy. The decision also signals accountability and the seriousness of the allegations.
Commentators note that Andrew’s relocation could help reduce public attention while keeping him under the supervision of the royal household.
