What to Know About Royal Lodge and Sandringham, Ex-Prince Andrew's Homes Before His Arrest
"Mountbatten-Windsor's current residence is at Wood Farm on Charles's Sandringham Estate. In October 2025, the king's brother was stripped of his remaining royal titles and given notice that he would be kicked out of his longtime residence near Windsor castle, following the posthumous release of Nobody's Girl, a memoir by Epstein survivor Virginia Giuffre, who accused Mountbatten-Windsor of sexual abuse. On February 2, he officially relocated to Wood Farm on the Sandringham Estate. For now, it seems he will continue to reside here."
"Sandringham, which dates back to at least 1086, has been privately owned by the royal family since 1862, when it was purchased by Queen Victoria for King Edward VII. Since then, it has passed from monarch to monarch; King Charles acquired it upon Queen Elizabeth II's 2022 death. Where is Sandringham Castle? Located in Norfolk, Sandrinham is a 20,000-acre estate about 110 miles north of London. Are taxpayers covering Prince Andrew's housing costs? No. Sandringham is privately owned and not an official royal residence. King Charles is footing the bill and giving the ex-prince an annual stipend from his own private funds."
