Prince and Princess of Wales Expected to Move to Windsor Castle
The Prince and Princess of Wales, Catherine and William, are currently residing in Adelaide Cottage.
However, it is anticipated that they will be relocating to Windsor Castle in the near future.
Known as the largest and oldest occupied castle in the world, Windsor Castle has been home to 40 monarchs since its construction in the 11th century.
Queen Elizabeth spent her final years at Windsor Castle, but it seems that King Charles won't be following in her footsteps once he ascends the throne.
The exact timing of the Wales family's move to Windsor Castle remains unknown, but for now, they are said to be enjoying their time in Windsor.
According to a friend who spoke to People magazine, they appreciate the freedom for their children to ride their bikes and explore the estate.
It is described as a close-knit community.
Interestingly, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry had also expressed a desire to live in Windsor Castle.
However, instead of granting them their wish, Queen Elizabeth offered them Frogmore Cottage and Windsor Great Park as their new home.
Royal Editor Katie Nicholl from Vanity Fair revealed that the Sussexes had hoped for a suite of apartments within Windsor Castle itself, but the Queen's decision was to gift them the Frogmore Cottage.
This gesture was significant, as it meant surrendering her own privacy, with the Queen's private entrance to the gardens located right next to their cottage.
Despite not receiving what they initially wanted, the Sussexes were grateful for the Queen's generosity.
Royal author Hugo Vickers shared his perspective on why the late Queen Elizabeth denied Prince Harry Windsor Castle, despite their close relationship.
He believed that the estate was not suitable for a young family.
While there are vacant bedrooms and suites in the private apartments of Windsor Castle that the Sussexes may have considered, it is understandable that it may not have been the most appropriate choice for a family with young children.
Perhaps other living quarters within the castle grounds could have been converted for their use.
It is reported that Prince William still harbors some resentment towards Harry for his actions.
The Prince of Wales believes that Harry has shown a lack of respect towards the royal family.
According to Katie Nicholl, William found it challenging when Harry stepped back from his royal duties.
This unresolved rift stems partly from William's difficulty in forgiving his brother.
The impact of Harry's decision affected not only William but also Princess Catherine and their young family.
It thrust them into the spotlight sooner than expected.
William had always anticipated supporting his brother, but it was not only Harry's choice to leave but also how he went about it that William saw as disrespectful to the institution and their family.
Despite the ongoing tension, Nicholl believes there is hope for reconciliation between the brothers in the future.
Prince Charles is determined to mend the family rift and work towards resolution.
He understands that this discord cannot persist within the heart of the royal family during his reign.
