Life looks dramatically different these days for Prince Andrew following his recent move and mounting legal troubles.
According to Page Six, the 66-year-old royal has reportedly left behind the sprawling Royal Lodge in Windsor, trading the 30-room residence for a far smaller home on the Sandringham Estate.
He relocated last month to Marsh Lodge, a five-bedroom property that marks a significant shift in lifestyle.
But it’s not just the downsizing that has drawn attention.
According to reports, a second-hand caravan was delivered to Andrew’s new residence and placed in the back garden.
The beige-and-gray 2012 model, described as “dated and faded” and showing signs of moss, is said to be worth $34,646.
The caravan was initially believed to be intended for Andrew’s security detail, given the limited space at the new home. However, a source claimed the former duke has taken a liking to it himself.
“He really is a changed man; he’s enjoyed sitting in the caravan,” one source said. “It’s novel for him.”
Another insider suggested the caravan’s purpose may have been misunderstood.
“People thought the caravan was for his staff, but he doesn’t really have any,” the source said, adding that existing Sandringham staff assist when needed, though many are reluctant to live on-site.
The purchase was reportedly funded using money provided by King Charles III for Andrew’s living expenses.
The change in circumstances has not gone unnoticed by those familiar with his past lifestyle. A friend of his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, offered a blunt assessment.
“He’s swapped ski chalets for static chalets. His mother [Queen Elizabeth] would be turning in her grave to see that monstrosity in his back garden,” the friend said.
Andrew’s situation became more serious last month when he was arrested on Feb. 19 — his 66th birthday — on suspicion of misconduct in public office.
Authorities allege he forwarded confidential trade documents to Jeffrey Epstein.
He has denied all accusations.
If convicted, Andrew could face life in prison.
He was recently seen in public for the first time since the arrest. Photos showed him walking his dogs alongside a bodyguard on the Sandringham grounds.
The developments mark a stark contrast from the life he once led, as both his living situation and legal challenges continue to unfold.
