Former Prince Andrew and his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson, were excluded from the royal family’s Easter celebration following his scandalous ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
The ex-royal — born Andrew Mountbatten Windsor — was photographed driving his Range Rover on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk, England, on Sunday.
His two corgis joined him for the daytime outing, and they later stepped out for a walk in an open field.

Andrew, 66, bundled up in a green jacket and khaki trousers.
Ferguson, who was married to Andrew from 1986 to 1996, didn’t join her ex. However, the duo was notably absent from Easter service with their family at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor, England, that morning.
Prince William, Kate Middleton and their three children — George, 12, Charlotte, 10, and Louis, 7 — were all smiles while stepping out to celebrate the holiday together.

The Princess and Prince of Wales attended church after skipping public Easter with their extended family for two years amid Middleton’s cancer diagnosis. She’s since been in remission.
King Charles III and his wife, Queen Camilla, were also present alongside other members of the royal family.

Andrew, meanwhile, was stripped of his royal titles and kicked out of his Royal Lodge home after facing allegations that he was a client of convicted rapist Jeffrey Epstein, who died in 2019.
At the time, he maintained his innocence, denying any wrongdoing.
On Feb. 19, Andrew was arrested on his birthday on suspicion of misconduct in public office and was accused of sending Epstein confidential trade documents while working for the British trade envoy from 2001 to 2011.
He can face up to life in prison if he is convicted.

Charles expressed his support for the investigation via a statement, writing, “The law must take its course.”
The scandal has also led Ferguson, who has maintained close ties with Andrew, to be homeless and to stay with friends after they lost their royal home.
Additionally, their daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, have also been impacted and “horrified” by the allegations against their father.
