Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been dealt yet another blow, as new images from Marsh Farm reveal a new problem for the former royal.
The disgraced ex-duke is currently living in Wood Farm whilst renovations to his permanent home are complete.
Andrew was removed from Royal Lodge in January after increased pressure on the former Duke of York following the latest release of the Epstein files.
New photos of Marsh Farm show that Andrew is going to face a potholes problem.

Pictures taken outside of Marsh Farm showed the driveway to the property riddled with potholes, currently filled with muddy rainwater.
The potholes are not the first issue Andrew’s new residence has had.
Marsh Farm is on a flood plain and residents have been advised to sign up for flood alerts in case local measures fail to alleviate the risks.
A flood risk assessment from last year for Wolferton Barns, which is just metres from Marsh Farm, stated: “The Environment Agency operates a flood warning system to enable householders to protect life or act to manage the effect of flooding on property.
“Failure of Wolferton Pumping Station may occur due to long-term mechanical breakdown or power supply being disrupted.
“If conditions put properties and land at risk of flooding, emergency action would be taken using temporary pumping equipment.”

The disgraced former Duke of York’s move has not gone down well with local residents in the area.
One local said: “I’m a little bit flabbergasted myself. If he’s an outcast and living on the estate, he’s not an outcast, is he?”
Another added: “Really, he’s going back to luxury, isn’t he? He’s being waited on hand and foot.”
A third said: “The press are all down there. The villagers don’t like that. It’s a quiet village.
They also stated that the home is “too close to the road” and that a home, ”out in the woods that’s surrounded by trees and no other houses… would have been better.”
