King Charles Strips Prince Andrew of Titles, Reassigns Residence Amid Epstein Scandal

Prince Andrew, brother to King Charles III, has been stripped of his royal titles and will move out of his rent-free mansion near Windsor Castle to a smaller private home on the King's Sandringham estate. This unprecedented action by King Charles aims to protect the monarchy amid scandals involving Andrew's association with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and allegations of sexual abuse. Andrew, now known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, lost his annual royal allowance and will likely receive a one-off payment and a stipend for his relocation, with the King privately funding this transition. His future income sources remain unclear after stepping back from royal duties, and his mental state is reportedly strained by the personal and public humiliation. The move to Sandringham, described as the royal equivalent of Siberia, signifies a dramatic change in his lifestyle and status. Additionally, there have been reports of longstanding resentment from Andrew towards Charles and tension with Prince William, fueled by jealousy and past disparaging remarks about the Princess of Wales.
