Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has apparently decided not to let King Charles live peacefully despite his medical treatment.
On October 30, the monarch announced that he had officially begun a process to strip his brother of his remaining royal titles and honours following the Epstein email scandals.
That was not it; Charles asked Andrew to surrender his lease and leave the massive Royal Lodge. As per the statement, a private accommodation has been arranged for the former Duke of York by the King at Sandringham estate.
But, royal expert Robert Jobson claimed that Beatrice and Eugenie's father is not going anywhere until next year.
He told Hello! Magazine, "Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor seems to be kicking his heels. The disgraced royal has made it clear to the King and courtiers who sent him packing that he is going nowhere fast."
The royal commentator added, "Despite formal notice being served in October to surrender his Royal Lodge lease, he won't budge until February at the earliest, suggesting he will spend Christmas at Royal Lodge while the King invites the rest of his close family to Sandringham."
Robert believed that logistics could be the reason for the delay in relocating. It must be difficult to shift Andrew's belongings from 30 rooms to a modest cottage.
The delay also showcased that the property in which Andrew resides in Sandringham is not ready yet.
"Downsizing is complex, the Palace says. But understanding doesn't mean sympathy. Sources say Andrew is 'leaning on every technical step available' to slow the process. Delay as a strategy. Why rush to your own diminishment?" Robert stated.
