Prince Harry and Meghan Have Been Evicted From Their U.K. Home

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle have been asked by King Charles to give up their U.K. home, a spokesperson for the couple confirmed to the media on Wednesday.

While the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been living in a privately-owned mansion in Santa Barbara, California, with their children Archie and Lilibet for almost three years, they’ve stayed at Frogmore Cottage when they are in Britain. The “request to vacate” would leave them without an official royal residence.

British tabloid the sun first reported on the eviction, claiming that the five-bedroom property on the grounds of Windsor Castle was offered to Prince Andrew, the King’s disgraced brother, last month.

Buckingham Palace has not commented on the displacement, but it comes just several weeks after the publication of Harry’s unsparing memoir in January and before his father’s coronation ceremony in May.

“It’s sending a clear, clear message from the King to his younger son,” says Giselle Bastin, a royal expert at Flinders University in Adelaide. “That would provide in many ways a disincentive for Prince Harry to bring his family over for the coronation, perhaps even himself, if he doesn’t have somewhere to stay that is covered by royal security.”

What is Frogmore Cottage?

Originally called Double Garden Cottage, Frogmore Cottage is part of the Frogmore estate, about half a mile south of Windsor Castle, and close to the River Thames. It was built in 1801 as a country retreat for King George III’s wife Queen Charlotte and her daughters.

Its name comes from the abundance of frogs on the historically wet marshland.

The late Queen Elizabeth II gifted her grandson Prince Harry and Meghan use of the cottage in 2018, shortly after the couple got married. Officially, however, the Crown Estate owns the property.
