According to a media report, Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan are said to have reached an agreement with Princess Eugenie. Accordingly, the pregnant woman and her husband Jack Brooksbank moved into Harry and Meghan's house in Windsor. Queen Elizabeth and other senior royals are said not to have known about it in advance.
In April 2019, Prince Harry, 36, and Duchess Meghan, 39, moved into Frogmore Cottage in Windsor, England. Until the official retirement as senior royals, it was the home of the couple and their son Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, one. Two weeks ago, the Sussexes' furniture was said to have been cleared out in a night-and-fog operation.
Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan are said to have informed royals later
Frogmore Cottage was a wedding present from Queen Elizabeth, 94, to Harry and Meghan – if only a symbolic one. Because: The house is not privately owned by the Queen, but is part of the so-called Crown Estate. Associated buildings may be used by the reigning monarch and his family – sometimes in return for a rent. Now Frogmore Cottage is set to become the new home of Princess Eugenie and her husband. "Moving vans pulled up in the middle of the night and cleared the cottage. They definitely didn't want to be seen," an insider told The Sun.
As "The Sun" reports, the Queen is said to have found out about all of this relatively late. A source told the newspaper: "Apparently the Queen was told after the couples discussed the plan." According to the source, the royal family was taken by surprise by the idea. "But Harry, Meghan, Eugenie and Jack have agreed on it. There is a close bond between them." British media are already titling the three Royals and Jack as "The New Fantastic Four". It used to be the Sussexes, Prince William, 38, and Duchess Catherine, 38.
Frogmore Cottage is said to remain owned by Prince Harry
Frogmore Cottage has been practically uninhabited since Harry and Meghan's family break in November 2019, which seamlessly merged into Megxit the following January. Since then, the Sussexes have only stopped by for two flying visits. If the couple travels to England in the future, they will share the premises with Jack and Eugenie. Prince Harry, who was always close to his cousin, is said to have reached an agreement with her. Further details are not known.
The Frogmore Cottage agreement is a new bang for the British media. "Emptying your house and handing over the keys is a pretty clear sign that Harry and Meghan have no plans to return," an anonymous source told The Sun.
The ideal home for Princess Eugenie and her family
While some see the handover of the house as Harry and Meghan's final break with England and the royal family, others see it as a loving gesture to Princess Eugenie. It is the ideal house for a growing family.
"Frogmore was designed with Meghan and Harry in mind, with son Archie in mind, making it the perfect place for a couple to raise a baby."
In addition to the costly modernization of the cottage, there are other points that speak in favor of the location. Eugenie's parents, Prince Andrew, 60, and Sarah Ferguson, 61, live just a few miles away at the Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park. Windsor Castle, the Queen's residence, is also nearby.
