Christmas is close, and King Charles and the royals will be preparing to celebrate amid the Prince Andrew scandal.
Thankfully, disgraced Andrew and his ex-wife Fergie will stay at their home of two decades Royal Lodge until after New Years eve.
The Daily Express’ correspondent Chris Riches hailed the move, noting that "it keeps the black sheep a three-hour car ride away during the festive season - and far from the media's eyes."
"It saves the King a heated discussion over why they would be excluded from joining the rest of the family on the traditional walk to the Christmas Day service at St Mary Magdalene Church on the estate - when the public wish the royals Merry Christmas," he explained.
"It saves Andrew and Fergie shuffling sheepishly past prying eyes and gobby mouths firing quips about Epstein," he added.
However, he noted that the King should invite the York Princesses, Beatrice and Eugenie, to Sandringham to celebrate with the rest of the family.
"The public bear Beatrice and Eugenie no ill-will, even sympathising with them to a degree as long as they don't slip into making quick cash-grabs like ma and pa," he wrote.
"In time Brits will forget Andrew and Fergie - though not forgive - and all that will be left of the 'Yorks' will be the princesses," he added.
Andrew Mounbatten-Windsor was stripped of his titles amid new emerging details about his link to Jeffrey Epstein. His name was mentioned in the Epstein files a whopping 173 times.
