A delivery of the sparkling wine arrived at Royal Lodge yesterday, as disgraced Andrew and Sarah Ferguson prepare to be booted out of their mansion in the near future
Disgraced Andrew Mountbatten Windsor saw a consignment of champagne delivered to Royal Lodge as he prepares to be kicked out in a few weeks time.
The ex-royal was stripped of all his titles, including prince, and will be forced to move out of his 30-room mansion, which he has called home for over 20 years despite paying barely any rent for it. This comes amid fury over his relationship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and accusations he had sex with Virginia Giuffre when she was a teen. Andrew continues to deny all allegations against him.
A delivery van pulled up to the Windsor mansion with six bottles of Devaux champagne costing £35 each.

The driver handed over a box of the bottles to a member of staff who met him outside the gates, on Friday. The ex-prince is teetotal and is said to have not drank any alcohol since he was a teenager.
Royal Lodge is still home to Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, before they are booted out in a few weeks, and a team of staff.
A source, according to The Sun, said: “The Champagne was delivered to a side gate and a worker collected it. Whoever it’s for, some might say it’s perhaps not a good look to have Champagne delivered.”
Andrew and Fergie are said to live separate lives within the mansion as the prepare to move, insiders have claimed. Fergie allegedly spends most of her time now by a purpose-built bar, behind the Windsor home, and unburdens herself and her worries to the staff.
The pair allegedly only meet for meals and when they do they supposedly talk about the starkly different plans the two face. Andrew is understood to be moving to the private Sandringham Estate, in move that will be paid by the King from his private finances.
This is expected to happen after December, due to the lengthy process of giving up the home. Sandringham, in Norfolk, is the venue for the traditional Christmas gathering for the royals and the delay means any potential encounter with Andrew over the festive period is avoided.
Some reports have claimed desperate Fergie could flee the UK and move abroad. A source, according to the MailOnline, claimed Sarah has “nowhere else to turn”.
They said: “She’s always rather lived on the hoof and aside from her children and grandchildren, there’s not a lot to keep her here. Put it this way, the invitations have dried up overnight.”
