Overview
- Royal sources told the Daily Mail, echoed by Hello!, that the King has no plans to see his brother again, describing the chance of contact as remote.
- Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is now living at Marsh Farm on the Sandringham estate after renovations that added a tall perimeter fence, CCTV and security lighting, with his accommodation privately funded by the King.
- Thames Valley Police arrested him on February 19 on suspicion of misconduct in public office at Wood Farm and he remains under investigation with no charges announced.
- Princess Anne has kept in touch by phone and is reported to have offered space at Gatcombe Park, and Prince Edward and Sophie visited over Easter for what sources called a welfare check.
- Royal Lodge is now largely empty following the surrender of Andrew’s lease, as commentators say Charles and Prince William are keeping their distance to protect the institution and reduce legal exposure.
