Overview

  • Kensington Palace confirms the Wales family will relocate later this year to Forest Lodge, a Grade II-listed, eight-bedroom home in Windsor Great Park.
  • Local reporting notes temporary black-mesh screens, new shrubs and other security preparations around the property as work continues.
  • Two Crown Estate tenants near the lodge were asked to relocate for security purposes, with People reporting no eviction notices and rehousing within Crown properties.
  • William and Kate plan to continue without live-in staff and will rely on a small team based in nearby accommodation, according to reports.
  • A property expert estimates the market rent at about £30,000 per month, up from a £15,000 listing in 2001, with costs covered privately.
