With multiple sources stating that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is set to move out of Royal Lodge this spring, the former Duke of York is currently preparing to downsize his palatial Windsor home. Although it's been suggested that The King wants Andrew out by Easter, the situation seems to be riding on whether the renovations on his reported new Sandringham property, Marsh Farm, go to plan. If the ex-duke doesn't like the idea of living in Norfolk, the Middle East has been suggested as an alternative for Andrew, but one royal expert notes that living abroad comes with a huge downside.
Bahrain in particular has been thrown out as a potential new home for the former Duke of York, as royal biographer Robert Jobson told People last week. Noting that King Charles met with the King of Bahrain recently, Jobson said, "One never knows—it could be a place where Andrew gets the recognition of being the second son of Queen Elizabeth, rather than this."
