Humiliation for Andrew as belongings ‘burned’ outside former home | Royal | News
A major clean has been carried out at Royal Lodge, Prince Andrew’s former home, with staff instructed to remove items linked to his time at the property. According to the Daily Mirror, crews working at the Windsor residence were seen destroying large amounts of furniture and personal items; these were reportedly filled as the cleanup progressed.
Andrew left Windsor after his name was found in more Epstein files and more images linked to the late pedophile financier. The fact that it is included in the documents does not mean that it is a mistake.
The former prince lived at Royal Lodge for more than 20 years, most of it with his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson. It was claimed that the staff set fire to their unwanted belongings last week. It has been reported that jumps filled to the brim with items have also been seen nearby.
Sources said the burned items and furniture belonged to Andrew’s former staff. Reports have reinforced the feeling that this marks a definitive end to Andrew’s long-standing relationship with the Royal Lodge and symbolizes a new chapter for the historic Windsor estate.
Buckingham Palace declined to comment as it does not represent or act for Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
The former prince’s connection with Jeffrey Epstein has further increased following allegations that he was the victim of a former Russian model and convicted businessman.
The woman told the Daily Mail that she had been at Epstein’s New York home with other women during Andrew’s visit to “chez Epstein” in 2010.
He described the atmosphere as unusually relaxed and said, “It was a very informal, family-like relationship with Andrew,” and recalled that Epstein himself said, “We should adopt Andrew into our family.”
In her account, Andrew was “a very nice guy” and “adjusted very well” to the environment. She added that she and other women were allowed to dress more casually during their visits, as opposed to the more tailored look other high-profile guests were expected to present.
The former model, who reportedly received payments as one of Epstein’s victims, also questioned why Andrew was not concerned about the presence of young women around Epstein, noting that she looked “too young.”
