Royal Shocking News:Prince Harry declares, “I’m determined to move on without seeing King Charles-it’s time to live my own life and man up… even when everyone let me down, even to the extent of…See More

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s former U.K. home of Frogmore Cottage has once again become the subject of public discussion, after a new book, Endgame, written by journalist Omid Scobie, has reportedly said that Queen Elizabeth II’s daughter, Princess Anne, supported plans for King Charles III to take back the property, leaving his youngest son without a permanent home in Britain.

Harry and Meghan moved into the cottage situated in the grounds of Windsor Castle in 2019, having been offered it as an alternative to the London-based Nottingham Cottage when they were expecting their first child, Prince Archie.

The cottage became the subject of debate in 2020 when Harry and Meghan stepped down from their roles as working royals, as it was revealed that public funds had been spent in making the property habitable for them.

Harry and Meghan repaid the public money and stated their intention to keep the home as their U.K. base, being extra desirable as it was covered by the police protection of Windsor Great Park, Harry having lost his permanent bodyguards in the split from the monarchy.

In March 2023, two months after Harry had published his bombshell memoir, Spare, and six months after the death of Queen Elizabeth II, it was confirmed that the Sussexes had been asked to vacate their cottage.
The removal of their remaining possessions was confirmed in June, along with the news that the couple had made the final repayments of the state funds used in its refurbishment.

In his 2022 Netflix docuseries with Meghan, Harry spoke about being offered the use of Frogmore Cottage by his grandmother, revealing that it came at a time when the couple were facing intense media scrutiny.

Speaking to producers, he recounted that: “To suddenly have my grandmother go ‘There’s a house. Frogmore Cottage, its available, are you interested?’ ‘Yes please!’”

To this, Meghan revealed that Frogmore had been a place where the couple had passed a number of their milestones and therefore it made the perfect setting for their family home, in the shadow of Windsor Castle.

“It was a place where we had so many memories,” she said. “From our courtship, our engagement, our wedding, our walks and then where we ended up having our baby.”

‘Dream Come True’
In his 2023 memoir, Spare, Prince Harry elaborated on the process of being offered the cottage by his grandmother. At the time, he and Meghan were living at Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace, a two-bedroom home which had the use of limited outdoor space.

“I told her we’d discussed our housing situation with the palace, and we’d been offered several properties, but each was too grand, we thought. Too lavish. And too expensive to renovate,” he said of his conversation with the queen.
