Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Could Lose Frogmore Cottage as King Charles III Considers Residences
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, despite permanently relocating to the US, are still holding on to Frogmore Cottage.
However, there is a possibility that they could lose their home.
King Charles III is currently deliberating on who will reside in the various royal residences.
As he weighs his options, he is also planning how to manage the numerous stately homes owned by the royal family.
Frogmore Cottage was gifted to the couple by the late Queen Elizabeth in 2019.
However, a recent report suggests that many royal fans are supporting Charles' plan to streamline the monarchy, which would reduce the amount of taxpayer money spent on the royal family.
This could potentially lead to the loss of Frogmore Cottage for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
According to Katie Nicholls' book, The New Royals, Harry and Meghan initially wanted to move to Windsor Castle but were given Frogmore Cottage instead.
Lady Elizabeth Anson, a close friend of the Queen who passed away in 2020, revealed that the monarch made the generous gesture of giving them the cottage.
Lady Elizabeth emphasized the significance of the home in Windsor, stating that it was essentially the Queen's backyard, her sanctuary, and her private space.
Giving it up was a significant sacrifice on the Queen's part, and she hoped that Harry and Meghan would respect it.
The book also sheds light on an incident where the late Queen reprimanded Meghan for being rude to a staff member prior to her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018.
Meghan was reportedly expressing her dissatisfaction with the vegan wedding menu to a caterer when the Queen entered the room, witnessing the tense exchange.
In response, the Queen reminded Meghan of the proper way to address people within the family.
These revelations come on the heels of claims that Prince Harry had a heated argument with Angela Kelly, the Queen's dresser, before his wedding to Meghan.
Valentin Lowe's new book details the stressful nature of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's wedding preparations, including disagreements over scheduling, announcements, and the tiara Meghan would wear on her big day.
According to Lowe, Meghan was informed that the Queen would lend her a tiara for the wedding and had an appointment with Angela Kelly to select one.
However, when Meghan wanted to try on the tiara with her hairdresser present, she was unable to do so as he was not available.
This led to frustration on Harry's part, who allegedly believed that Angela Kelly was intentionally obstructing them.
On the other hand, it was also suggested that Meghan demanded access to the tiara without following the proper protocol, as these precious jewels are kept under tight security.
The future of Frogmore Cottage remains uncertain as King Charles III continues to assess the allocation of royal residences.
The potential loss of the cottage adds to the ongoing narrative surrounding Harry and Meghan's relationship with the royal family, as various accounts shed light on past incidents and tensions.
