Overview

• The Prince and Princess of Wales are reported to be relocating to Forest Lodge in Windsor Great Park ahead of the holidays, framed as a privacy- and health-focused shift for their family.
• Windsor Great Park says the Home Office and Thames Valley Police are introducing a security boundary and enhanced protective measures in a small area, with most public access unaffected.
• Local residents and media describe a 2.3-mile restricted zone, new CCTV and fencing, and the loss of long-used walking routes, with some calling the restrictions selfish.
• At least two nearby rented households were reportedly asked to move earlier in the year because of proximity to the property, according to prior local reporting.
• Separate reports from RadarOnline, echoed by other outlets, claim Forest Lodge could become the family's permanent home and that William may eschew living at Buckingham Palace as king, along with concerns about a 'part-time monarchy,' though these claims remain unconfirmed.
