King Charles Evicts Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from Frogmore Cottage
In a surprising turn of events, King Charles has made the decision to remove Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from their residence at Frogmore Cottage.
This move has sparked speculation among royal experts, who believe that it may have more significant implications than just a disagreement over property ownership.
According to these experts, the King's decision could be an attempt to prevent Prince Harry from assuming a critical role as Counsellor of State.
This position requires the holder to be domiciled in the UK, and by removing Prince Harry from Frogmore Cottage, his ability to fulfill this role may be compromised.
Counsellors of State are appointed to act on behalf of the monarch in the event of their temporary absence or incapacity.
Typically, these individuals include a sovereign spouse and the next four individuals in the line of succession who are over the age of 21.
However, last year Princess Anne and Princess Edward were added to the list of official deputies, raising questions about the future roles of Prince Andrew and Prince Harry.
Richard Fitzwilliams, a royal expert, pointed out that Prince Harry's eviction from Frogmore Cottage would result in him losing his domicile in Britain, which could impact his eligibility as a Counsellor of State.
Dr. Craig Prescott, an expert in UK constitutional law, agreed, stating that without UK domicile, Prince Harry may lose his status as a Counsellor of State.
Prince Harry's domicile of origin is British, and it is challenging to replace this with a domicile of choice, such as the United States, where he currently resides.
Losing his status as a Counsellor of State could limit Prince Harry's ability to serve in a critical capacity for the Royal Family.
Frogmore Cottage was gifted to the Sussexes by the late Queen and has served as their base during visits to the UK.
The loss of this property could make Prince Harry and Meghan Markle feel unsafe during their visits, possibly leading to fewer future trips.
Jack Royston, Chief Royal Correspondent for Newsweek, emphasized that Frogmore Cottage held more significance for the couple than just a place to stay.
The loss of their UK residence could have far-reaching implications for their roles and connections within the Royal Family.
It remains uncertain whether King Charles' decision was a deliberate effort to hinder Prince Harry's involvement in the Royal Family.
However, regardless of the motive, this move highlights the challenges faced by the Sussexes as they navigate their roles outside of the UK while maintaining ties to the monarchy.
