Prince Andrew is known to have a fully-staffed palace in Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. The 65-year-old released a statement on Friday which shared that he will relinquish all of his remaining titles and honour amid the latest Epstein scandal.

It has been reported that Andrew thinks the Abu Dhabi palace is too quiet and that his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, who he lives with at Royal Lodge, doesn’t like the heat. According to esteemed biographer and historian Andrew Lownie and other sources, the palace was gifted to Andrew and Sarah by the UAE’s ruling Royal Family – the house of Nahyan.

Amid news of his secret palace, MP Robert Jenrick has called for Andrew to “vanish” and move out of his 30-room Windsor mansion.

It has been reported that Andrew had been living there for more than two decades while paying a “peppercorn rent”.

MP Jenrick has said that it was “about time Prince Andrew took himself off to live in private” as “the public are sick of him”.

He added: “He has disgraced himself, he has embarrassed the Royal Family time and again. I don’t see why the taxpayer, frankly, should continue to foot the bill at all. The public are sick of him.”

Adding, he said: “The King deserves great respect and admiration for the way he has handled this. He is trying to do his absolute best to ensure Prince Andrew goes off, leads a quiet life and doesn’t embarrass himself, the Royal Family or our country ever again”.

Prince William and Princess Kate are reportedly leading the quest to push Andrew and Sarah out of Royal Lodge.

This comes just weeks before they are set to move to another property – Forest Lodge – on the estate with their three children – Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and seven-year-old Prince Louis.
