Andrew is BOOTED out of Royal Lodge ‘below the quilt of darkness’ after newest launch of Epstein recordsdata – as police ‘sufferer being jetted to the UK to have intercourse with the then-Prince’

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been booted out of Royal Lodge in the dead of night after the release of more disturbing revelations in the Epstein files.

The former Duke of York was told to leave his stately home earlier than expected as his brother King Charles had become increasingly concerned by the allegations, it is understood.

It follows the publication of an email yesterday where Andrew appeared to tell paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein he wanted to be his ‘pet’.

Police today also announced they would be assess an allegation that Epstein trafficked a second woman to the UK to have sex with the disgraced former Prince.

Andrew is now believed to have vacated his £30million, 31-room Royal Lodge – three months after handing back his lease.

He was driven 132 miles to Sandringham – transported ‘in the darkness of night’.

Andrew will be temporarily staying at Wood Farm Cottage before moving permanently next door to Marsh Farm by the start of April, upon completion of renovations.

The former prince is now under mounting pressure to co-operate with US officials investigating Epstein’s crimes, with sources saying it is a ‘matter of personal conscience’ as well as his public duty.

While Buckingham Palace has declined to comment on the latest revelations from the US Department of Justice file dump, royal sources told the Daily Mail last night that ‘providing testimony is now a matter for Andrew and his conscience’.

Insiders also said it was always a principle that those who have relevant information should ‘participate in any lawful inquiry on any subject’.

The development will add fuel to the fire of calls for the former prince to break his self-imposed silence and publicly co-operate with officials investigating Epstein’s crimes – and the network of contacts that aided and abetted him.

However, despite being seen driving and riding around Windsor – where he was, astonishingly, photographed smiling and waving to onlookers without an apparent care in the world yesterday – there continued to be a deafening silence from the former royal.

It is understood King Charles was not aware of the level of detail in the latest files, which reveal the depths of the relationship between his brother and the paedophile.

Buckingham Palace appears to be learning about the new material at the same time as the public.

But the ensuing headlines will be troubling given Andrew was a working member of the Royal Family and held a prestigious role as a UK trade ambassador during his association with Epstein.

The King and Queen also pointedly stated last October, as it was announced Andrew was being stripped of his titles, that their ‘thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse’.

Although Andrew moved into a new abode – his former wife Sarah Ferguson is not thought to have been so lucky.

She is yet to find a new permanent property because she won’t move in with her ex and the pair’s children can’t offer them a resident, it was claimed.

The former Duchess of York is in the midst of a ‘housing crisis’ and is clinging on to the hope of finding a new place in Windsor.

But the 66-year-old will have to ‘lower her expectations’ about the standard of her next home after decades in the Royal Lodge.

Fergie is said to be in a ‘fragile’ state over her fall from grace, telling friends her recent travails were ‘not good for my mental health’.

Andrew and Fergie lost their titles and their Windsor mansion, previously home to the Queen Mother, over their long friendship with billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

But while Andrew is begrudgingly off to Sandringham, Ms Ferguson ‘will not be moving in’ because she ‘would prefer to stay in the Windsor area’, a source close to her said.

‘Relations are warmer between Ferguson and the couple’s daughters, but no offer of permanent accommodation has been extended to their mother’, The Times report added.

‘For now, Andrew and Sarah have a housing crisis. It may mean that they have to lower their expectations about the sort of lifestyle they wish to lead.’
