The Queen’s once-beloved son Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has suffered another blow as his new home is plagued by problems amid reports of the latest developments in the Epstein affair.
The former Duke of York, who recently left the Royal Lodge, has been dealt a further blow as he approaches his 66th birthday, which falls on February 20.
The former prince is currently living at Wood Farm while renovations to his permanent residence are completed.
New photos from Marsh Farm show the disgraced royal is going to face a pothole problem.
The area is on a flood plain and residents have been advised to sign up for flood alerts in case local measures fail to mitigate the risks.
A flood risk assessment carried out last year for Wolferton Barns, which is just meters from Marsh Farm, said: “The Environment Agency operates a flood warning system to enable property owners to protect life or take action to manage the effects of flooding on their properties.
“A breakdown of the Wolferton pumping station may occur due to long-term mechanical failure or interruption of electrical supply. If conditions put properties and land at risk of flooding, emergency measures would be taken using temporary pumping equipment.”
Surrey Police call
It appears amid reports that Surrey Police are appealing for witnesses following the release of US Department of Justice files relating to the late convicted financier Epstein.
“We take all reports of sexual abuse and child sexual abuse seriously and therefore, as with any other matter, if new relevant information were brought to our attention, including any information resulting from the release of material in the United States, we would assess it,” a Surrey Police spokesperson said.
Andrew’s accuser Virginia Giuffre’s lawyer appeals to U.S.
David Boies, Virginia Giuffre’s lawyer, argued that Andrew had a duty to disclose any knowledge of the convicted pedophile financier.
“He has an obligation to say what he knows,” Boies said.
“Now I also think that if he is afraid of being arrested in the United States, we should give him safe passage to come and testify in the country.”
He added: “Because we don’t want there to be any excuse for him not to come out and say what he knows.”
