Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has reportedly made a series of demands before leaving the Royal Lodge. The former prince faced a significant decline after it was revealed that he had corresponded with the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein despite claiming to have severed ties with him. Consequently, he was stripped of his titles and instructed to vacate the Royal Lodge in Windsor within the next few months.
Additionally, Andrew has been summoned to appear before the US Congress to discuss his interactions with Epstein. Despite consistent denials of any misconduct involving minors linked to Epstein, he has been asked to address the matter formally.
According to reports from MailOnline, Andrew is insisting on having an adequate number of staff at his presumed new residence, likely the private Sandringham Estate. He is also adamant about relocating his extensive collection of teddy bears and will not pack them until suitable arrangements are made regarding his new accommodation and caretakers.
Reportedly, Andrew has requested the services of a cook, housekeeper, gardeners, and a butler. Furthermore, he desires the freedom to move about at will rather than being confined to his residence.
These requests have surfaced amidst claims that Andrew has been restricted from riding around Windsor Castle, although there are purported plans for him to stroll in areas away from public access.
Andrew’s downfall commenced with the exposure of his association with Epstein, exacerbated by his ill-fated interview on Newsnight. Concerns have been raised by his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, who resides with him at the Royal Lodge despite their divorce. She reportedly fears for Andrew’s safety, citing potential risks associated with the Epstein scandal.
As for Fergie’s future, uncertainties loom. Speculation suggests that she might consider leaving the UK due to ongoing public disapproval that shows no signs of abating.
