Andrew Mountbatten‑Windsor, a member of the British royal family, has been spending his recent days at Sandringham House in Norfolk, according to reports. Friends say he is enjoying a “very nice time” in exile, surrounded by a circle of companions. Despite the relaxed atmosphere, the prince has reportedly been excluded from the family’s summer itinerary, a move that has sparked speculation about internal tensions. Some observers note that his presence near the estate has coincided with a £1.25 million refurbishment of the surrounding property, a project described as “disruptive” by local media. While the exact reasons for the exclusion remain unclear, it appears to be part of a broader family disagreement. The situation remains fluid, with no official statement from the royal household confirming the details.
