Andrew Mountbatten Windsor faces 'resistence' in Sandringham move

Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has been held up from moving to Sandringham, says an insider.

The former Duke of York, who has been asked to leave the Royal Lodge at Windsor and go to Scotland instead, is being resisted due to engineering works on the estate.

An insider tells Express: "Six months of works are needed before Andrew can move in and he’s strongly resisting plans to live in a temporary property until the renovations are complete - not least because the suggested property is a fraction of the size of Royal Lodge.”

This comes as Andrew is being exposed in Epstein files and is dragged into the mud.

Royal expert Simon Vigar told The Sun: “More and more will come out. I mean there’s obviously lots and lots of documents and photos and videos to come out. But it’s not just Sandringham which is obviously one of their favourite homes.”

He added: “We’ve already seen pictures of Maxwell and Epstein at Balmoral at not just in the main building but you know in one of the lodges there.”

In conversation with The Sun, the royal commentator Simon Vigar said, "More and more will come out. I mean, there’s obviously lots and lots of documents and photos and videos to come out."

He added, "But it’s not just Sandringham, which is obviously one of their favourite homes. We’ve already seen pictures of Maxwell and Epstein at Balmoral, not just in the main building, but you know, in one of the lodges there."

It is pertinent to note that this disturbing update came amid King Charles' holiday break with the royal family at Sandringham.
