Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been visited by Prince Edward, becoming the first member of the Royal Family to visit the Duke of York since his arrest, it has been claimed.<\/p>\n

The Duke of Edinburgh reportedly journeyed up to Wood Farm, where Andrew currently resides, and was due to stay nearby, but was forced to stay in the main house.<\/p>\n

It is understood that Edward and his wife, Sophie, wanted to stay at Wood Farm over the Easter break, but had to change their plans because his brother is “dragging his heels”.<\/p>\n

The former prince’s new home, Marsh Farm, has had extensive renovation work over the past month, with Andrew’s move imminent.<\/p>\n

Sharing the Duke of Edinburgh’s visit, a friend told The Sun: “Prince Edward was the first and only member of the Royal Family to visit.<\/p>\n

“Andrew has been ignored by everyone since he left Royal Lodge, including his daughters and ex-wife, who have stayed away.<\/p>\n

“Edward has already publicly made his feelings clear when he expressed concern for the victims.<\/p>\n

“Edward was meant to be staying at Wood Farm as he regularly books it for Easter, but his brother was there.”<\/p>\n

The friend continued: “Andrew has been dragging his heels. He could have moved by now, but has been reluctant. Edward has had a quiet word with his brother.”<\/p>\n

Andrew was spotted yesterday meeting Edward Parsons, the Sandringham estate manager, after he made a short drive to Marsh Farm.<\/p>\n

Protesters targeted the former Duke of York’s fence at his new home<\/a> in a major security breach on Thursday.<\/p>\n

The group climbed the former prince’s newly constructed security fence and allegedly shouted abuse at Andrew, who appeared to be visiting Marsh Farm.<\/p>\n

Andrew has been seen on a handful of occasions since his release from Aylsham Police Station after being arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office.<\/p>\n

The former prince, who is still under investigation, has previously denied any wrongdoing but has not responded to recent allegations.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, the former duke was seen behind the wheel<\/a> of his Range Rover on the Sandringham estate.<\/p>\n

Andrew, dressed in a maroon cable-knit sweater, had a security guard accompanying him in the passenger seat during the drive.<\/p>\n

Over recent days, palace staff have been emptying Royal Lodge of all remaining possessions, including contents from the staff quarters where servants.<\/p>\n

Skips filled to capacity have been hauled away from the property, while removal vehicles have been observed entering and leaving the estate.<\/p>\n

One source told the Mirror: “Andrew was told everything had to be out and absolutely nothing was to be left behind.<\/p>\n

“He hasn’t been back to collect anything, leaving staff to clear everything out by the weekend, and we’ve been told no trace of the former occupants or staff should remain.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been visited by Prince Edward, becoming the first member of the Royal Family to visit…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":374730,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[70564,458,146,85,46,66957,52388],"class_list":{"0":"post-374729","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor","9":"tag-celebrities","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-il","12":"tag-israel","13":"tag-prince-edward","14":"tag-royal"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374729","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=374729"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/374729\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/374730"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=374729"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=374729"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=374729"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
