Just a day after Buckingham Palace confirmed that Prince Andrew would be stripped of his remaining royal titles and required to leave his longtime residence at Royal Lodge, King Charles paid a visit to his brother’s new home on the Sandringham estate.

The 76-year-old monarch was seen driving through his privately-owned Norfolk property, where Andrew, 65, is preparing to settle following his eviction from the Windsor residence he had shared with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson.

King Charles Takes Decisive Action

Earlier this week, Buckingham Palace announced that Charles had “initiated a formal process to remove the style, titles and honours of Prince Andrew.” The move follows years of controversy surrounding Andrew’s association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and allegations of sexual abuse—claims Andrew has consistently denied.

The October 30 statement confirmed that the Duke of York would now be known simply as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor. The Palace added that these actions were “deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him.”

Andrew’s daughters, Princess Beatrice, 37, and Princess Eugenie, 35, will retain their royal titles. However, both their parents will no longer share a home—Sarah Ferguson, who previously gave up her Duchess of York title, is expected to make her own living arrangements separate from Andrew’s new Sandringham property.

Andrew’s Titles and Honours Removed

The former Duke had already announced earlier in October that he would stop using his royal titles, including Duke of York, Earl of Inverness, and Baron Killyleagh. He also agreed to no longer use the style “His Royal Highness” or his distinguished honours such as the Order of the Garter and Knight Grand Cross of the Victorian Order.

Despite these changes, Andrew reiterated his continued denial of wrongdoing, stating, “As I have said previously, I vigorously deny the accusations against me.”
