London (United Kingdom), 31 October (LaPresse) – After being stripped of his title of prince, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor will leave Royal Lodge, the luxurious 30-room, 50-hectare estate that includes a swimming pool, several cottages and an aviary. He will move as soon as possible to Sandringham, Charles' long-time retreat on the windswept North Sea coast in eastern England. The 8,000-acre estate is where the royal family spends Christmas. It has not been disclosed when he will move, but it is expected that he will not be among the other family members who are usually seen in public as they attend church on Christmas morning. Andrew's ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, also shared Royal Lodge with him. Ferguson, who is no longer known as the Duchess of York, will have to find a new place to live. The couple's daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, will retain their titles and the acronym HRH, which stands for Her Royal Highness, as they are the granddaughters of a sovereign, Queen Elizabeth II.
