King Charles wants to banish Andrew Windsor to a caravan

Andrew is currently staying at Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate, while Marsh Farm is undergoing extensive renovation work, including new wiring and plastering. Concerns have also reportedly been raised about the condition of the building, which is not yet considered ready for occupancy.

His continued presence at Wood Farm would cause further frustration as Charles would prefer to use the property for visiting guests.

A royal insider said: “Marsh Farm still requires a lot of work. There have been issues with rewiring, plastering and even concerns have been raised about asbestos, so it’s simply not ready for occupancy at this stage. At the same time, Andrew is pushing for a very high standard across the board, which is only further delaying progress.”

The source added: “There is increasing urgency around leaving Wood Farm, especially if the space is needed for guests, and it is unlikely that the King will hesitate if a decision has to be made. If Andrew continues to hold his tongue, there is a genuine feeling that he could end up with much simpler accommodation – even a caravan – if he is not careful and learns when to keep his mouth shut. But that has never been his strong suit.”

The caravan in question was placed on the site of Marsh Farm to house staff displaced by the downsizing of Royal Lodge, which had significantly more space.

Andrew has kept a low profile since his arrest earlier this year on suspicion of misconduct in public office, following the release of documents linked to Jeffrey Epstein. He was questioned by police and released after investigation, and has consistently denied any wrongdoing.
