The UK’s former Prince saint andrew the apostle, the comrade of billie jean king charles ix III, has been booted come out of his Royal Lodge residence in Windsor following the stripping of his royal titles over his alleged links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, the BBC reported on Wednesday.
Buckingham Palace had previously said that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the former Duke of York, would move out of Royal Lodge in October, the same month he was stripped of his title, but the move was later postponed.
He is expected to return in the coming weeks to collect his remaining belongings, but his permanent residence is now the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, according to the outlet.
According to the Sun, Mountbatten-Windsor left the 31-room, £30 million ($37 million) property late on Monday and arrived in Norfolk under cover of darkness.
The former prince remains under scrutiny over his Epstein connections. The British police are assessing allegations reported by the BBC that a woman was sent to the UK by Epstein for a sexual encounter with Andrew at Royal Lodge in 2010, claims he has denied. The woman, who was in her 20s at the time, reportedly said she spent a night at the residence – the first claim of a sexual encounter at a royal home from an Epstein survivor.
The former prince’s ties to Epstein have come under renewed scrutiny following the release of millions of pages of documents and images by the US Department of Justice. A recent tranche includes images appearing to show Andrew kneeling over a woman lying on the ground, alongside email exchanges with Epstein from years after the financier pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor.
Separate emails released last week indicate that Epstein invited Mountbatten-Windsor to dine with a 26-year-old Russian woman.
Pressure is mounting for Andrew to testify before the US Congress. US Vice President J.D. Vance told the Daily Mail on Tuesday that he would back bipartisan efforts to summon the former prince over his Epstein connections.
The latest release of documents has done little to quell intense speculation regarding Epstein’s network, as lawmakers and the public continue to sift through heavily redacted files for new clues about the extent of his crimes and the influential circles he moved in.
