The former residence of Prince Andrew, the sprawling Royal Lodge in Windsor, has reportedly been completely vacated, marking another significant development in the royal’s ongoing exile from public life.
Once a bustling royal residence, the 30-bedroom estate is now said to stand empty, with Andrew believed to have relocated to Marsh Farm on the Norfolk estate.
Royal Lodge Falls Silent
According to local observers, the atmosphere around the Royal Lodge has dramatically changed in recent months.
“Royal Lodge was a hive of activity, even when Andrew was trying to lie low during the Epstein scandal, but now it’s just a ghost town,” one source shared.
The absence of activity has fueled speculation about the property’s future, especially as no other members of the royal family appear willing to take over the residence.
Family Support Behind the Scenes
Amid these developments, Prince Edward and Sophie reportedly visited Andrew over Easter, highlighting continued—albeit cautious—family support.
Sources suggest the couple is concerned about Andrew’s well-being, particularly his mental state as he remains largely removed from royal duties.
“They feel sorry for Andrew and how far he has fallen and are worried about his fragile state of mind,” an insider revealed.
A Delicate Balance
Despite their sympathy, the royal family is said to be navigating a careful line between offering personal support and maintaining accountability.
“It’s a difficult balancing act supporting him while not condoning what he has got involved with,” the source added.
As Prince Andrew continues to live away from the spotlight, the fate of the Royal Lodge—and his role within the royal family—remains uncertain, reflecting the lasting impact of past controversies on the monarchy.
