According to royal commentator
Richard Kay, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's top priority is his television as he moves out of Royal Lodge and into Marsh Farm. "Workmen were there putting in a satellite dish for him. We know he loves his TV," he said during an appearance on the "
Palace Confidential" podcast.

When Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor adjusts to his new normal, television could bring him comfort. "I think it all harks back to his military days," Richard Kay said. "He spent hours watching planes descending and taking off from Heathrow Airport on some interactive system that he had at Royal Lodge, and I'm sure that will be replicated at Marsh Farm."

As Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor prepares to say goodbye to his longtime home, he'll have to get used to the idea of a smaller space. "A lorry [truck] has been and gone under the cover of darkness. Andrew is going to a shoebox-sized house, compared to Royal Lodge, so a lot of the things that were taken are going into a storage unit," a source told
Daily Mail.

However, due to how Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor treated Royal Lodge, the relocation could take a while. "The clutter at Royal Lodge is turning what should be a straightforward move into a months-long, room-by-room excavation," the source told the publication. "It's all going to be painfully slow, especially with refurbishment work to complete at the other end. These aren't the kind of belongings you can sweep into a skip. Even if Andrew wanted to move tomorrow, he couldn't."

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was stripped of his titles and evicted from Royal Lodge over his connection to
Jeffrey Epstein. "He's coming to terms with the fact he's lost everything that mattered to him: his status, his position in the royal family and military, and to a lesser extent, a fractured family," a source told
The Telegraph.
