Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the younger brother of King Charles III of the UK, is reportedly planning a move to Bahrain. If he does, the younger son of the late Queen Elizabeth II, long disgraced due to his ties with Jeffrey Epstein, the deceased human trafficker, child predator, and financier, will have the company of another royal, accused of tax fraud in the Middle East. Reports detailing Andrew’s plans to move away from the UK come after he was stripped of his royal titles, military ranks, and imperial patronages in October 2025. The disgraced royal was evicted from his 30-room Royal Lodge, owned by the Crown Estate, yesterday (January 25).
