Ex-Prince Andrew Reportedly 'Horrified' After Seeing His Modest New Home: 'His Face Dropped'

Ex-British Prince, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, has reportedly been left "horrified" after his first tour of his new home on the King's Sandringham estate, where he's expected to live out his royal exile.

The disgraced former Duke of York is said to have thrown a tantrum and wants a full-blown makeover, with his brother, King Charles, expected to foot the bill.

It comes amid reports that Andrew is considering moving to the Middle East, as Prince William is also looking to keep him "as far away as possible."

After decades living in the sprawling, 30-room Royal Lodge in Windsor, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has seemingly been downgraded to a new home in King Charles' Sandringham estate.

However, the former royal reportedly feels dejected after going to see the new place for the first time, as reports claim he thinks the place is "beneath him."

"The moment he walked in, his face dropped," a source told Rob Shuter's #Shuterscoop. "He thought it was beneath him. Too small, too isolated — he actually called it the middle of nowhere."

The reality of the move has slowly hit home, but Andrew is not going down without a fight. Sources say after seeing how the house didn't match up with his taste, he started throwing tantrums and is demanding a full makeover.

"He wants a golf course, stables, shooting rights — the works," another source told the columnist. "He's talking about gutting the bathrooms, redoing the kitchen, rebuilding servant quarters, and upgrading every inch."

According to the news outlet, he wants his brother King Charles to fund the renovation works for his new home.

"Andrew fully expects his brother to pay," a courtier shared. "Renovations, security, a fleet of cars with drivers — even a London flat on the side."

Andrew's residential change comes amid months of controversy for his ties with convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Late last year, he was stripped of his royal titles, military honors, and the "His Royal Highness" style.

It remains to be seen what Prince William's reaction would be as reports earlier surfaced suggesting he wants his disgraced Uncle "as far away as possible."

The future King favors a no-nonsense approach to the monarchy and wants to rid the royal family of the controversies that have trailed it in recent years.

Following Andrew's eviction from Royal Lodge, royal experts shared that William doesn't just want him to change homes but also be exiled from the royal family.

"Prince William, in particular, is the strongest proponent of distancing Andrew from the royal family," royal expert Hillary Fordwich told Fox News Digital. "He wants his wayward uncle as far away as possible."

Fordwich further noted that William is being intentional about protecting the image of the monarchy, especially after his scandal-plagued uncle caused the royal family to be placed under severe scrutiny.

"He doesn't want his reign overshadowed by such scandals — let alone living in constant fear of another damaging revelation with lurid headlines," the expert noted.

"The last thing William wants, while focusing on duty and modernizing the monarchy, is to have the liability of Andrew around," Fordwich continued. "He wants distance in every sense. He's also in tune with public sentiment, and the issue is trust in the monarchy."

Meanwhile, talks of a possible exile to the Middle East have emerged as the royal family looks to totally distance themselves from Andrew.

"The king saw the king of Bahrain the other day," royal expert Robert Jobson shared, per PeopleMagazine. "One never knows — it could be a place where Andrew gets the recognition of being the second son of Queen Elizabeth, rather than this."

"Other disgraced people have gone to the Middle East," Jobson added. "Andrew did a lot of business in Bahrain, and he's still relatively young."

According to Fox News Digital, British broadcaster Helena Chard shared that  "the monarchy comes first," and it will be easier for them to "distance themselves from Andrew and his scandals if he relocates abroad."

"A source confirmed that Abu Dhabi's royal family holds Andrew in high esteem," she said, adding that Andrew "already has an invitation to live a luxurious lifestyle in the UAE if life becomes too challenging in the U.K."
