Andrew struggling to come to terms with new reality after humiliating royal exit
Ex-Prince Andrew said to be struggling with dramatic change amid Jeffrey Epstein controversy
Former Prince Andrew is reportedly struggling to adjust to major changes in his personal life following the loss of his royal titles and Royal Lodge.
According to sources, relocation to Marsh Farm from Royal Lodge was a significant shift in his living situation and daily routine.
They said that behind closed doors the former Duke of York’s behaviour has at times appeared unsettled, with an insider claiming that King Charles’ brother is in a withdrawn state as he adapts to life away from royals.
"What's become clear to those around Andrew is just how much of his identity was tied up in the royal life he led for decades,” they said of Andrew, who lost his royal perks due to his past association with Jeffrey Epstein.
“Almost overnight, he has lost the framework that gave his days purpose – his official duties, his position within the institution and even the familiarity of his Royal Lodge home,” they added.
"That kind of sudden dislocation is incredibly hard to navigate. It's not just a change of circumstances, it's a complete dismantling of the routine and status he was accustomed to, and there hasn't been an obvious path to replace that.
"People who have seen him recently say it's evident in his demeanor that he is still struggling to come to terms with how drastically his life has been reshaped."
