King Charles is “evicting Harry and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage”

It has been claimed that King Charles has decided to evict Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from their royal residence at Frogmore Cottage in favor of Prince Andrew.

Buckingham Palace issued an eviction notice for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex days after Harry’s memoir Spare, in which he made a series of sensational claims against the royal family, hit UK shelves in January, according to Sun.

Instead, the Palace seeks to replace the couple with the disgraced Duke of York, who currently inhabits the larger Royal Lodge, the newspaper alleges.

Andrew is said to be resistant to the move, but Harry and Meghan are said to be forced to leave the cottage, their only remaining home in the UK, and fully complete their relocation to the US, regardless of if Andrew moves there.

The revelation comes with preparations for King Charles’s coronation in May amid speculation that Prince Harry might not receive an invitation.

MailOnline has contacted representatives for Buckingham Palace and Prince Harry for comment.

A royal source told The Sun of the move: “This surely means the end of Harry and Meghan’s time in the UK.”

Frogmore Cottage is a stone’s throw from the main residence of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Andrew balks at the idea of ​​moving into Frogmore Cottage after being offered it last week.

“But it shows that Harry and Meghan are powerless to stop the eviction.”

Frogmore Cottage, a house of grace and favor on the Frogmore Estate in Windsor that the late Queen presented to the Duke and Duchess in 2018 for their wedding, is the couple’s only remaining UK residence.

The cottage is located a stone’s throw from Adelaide Cottage, the principal residence of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

It’s more like a mansion, with five rooms and extensive gardens, and it underwent a multi-million dollar renovation in 2018-2019 before Harry and Meghan moved in.

Previously there had been five separate properties for staff working on the Windsor Estate.

The entire renovation cost the Sovereign Grant £2.4 million.

Harry and Meghan appear at Frogmore Cottage shortly after Archie’s birth.

Harry and Meghan recently renewed their lease on the property in May 2022, after Princess Eugenie and her partner, who moved in after the Duke and Duchess’s departure in 2020, vacated the property to move to Portugal.

Harry is set to discuss his Spare memories this weekend with the doctor Gabor Maté.

The couple are understood to be going ahead with their move to Montecito, California, but it is unknown if they plan to fight the reported eviction.

It comes at a fragile time for Harry and Meghan, who have seen their popularity ratings drop significantly in the US since the release of Spare.

News of his eviction comes days before Harry is expected to take part in an “intimate” live chat with doctor, author and addiction expert Gabor Maté to promote his memoir Spare.

More than a month after the book’s release, royal fans can sign up to see the Duke of Sussex discuss it with Dr Maté, and they’ll also receive a free copy of Spare, as well as the chance to submit questions to the prince.

The event, organized in collaboration with Harry’s publisher Penguin Random House, will take place on Saturday 4th March at 5pm UK time.

The couple is expected to talk about “living with loss and the importance of personal healing,” followed by a live Q&A session.

Meanwhile, Prince Andrew is said to remain “resolute” in his desire to remain at Royal Lodge, a much larger estate in Windsor.

But he may be forced to leave if his older brother decides to cut the £249,000 annual grant that helps the Duke of York maintain the lodge’s upkeep.

Royal experts have said the prince must face reality and start ‘living within his means’ after settling out of court with sexual assault accuser Virginia Giuffre following a multi-million dollar payment.

Prince Andrew has reportedly told friends he has no intention of leaving his Windsor property after signing a £250-a-week lease for the next 75 years.

Socialite Lady Victoria Hervey claimed last week that Charles might also try to reduce Andrew’s annual allowance out of jealousy.

Speaking to GB News on Friday, Lady Victoria said: “I think Charles, as the big brother, has always been a bit jealous of him. [Prince Andrew]. He had a very successful military career of 20 years.

I heard that you have always been jealous of him. So as soon as the Queen is gone, the daggers will be out.

Referring specifically to the Windsor lodge, Lady Victoria said: ‘They have time.

‘But Charles has inherited how much money and yet he can’t help his brother?

Prince Andrew was made to settle down [with Virginia Guiffre]he had no choice, and then as soon as they forced him to do it, they just took everything else away from him, bit by bit.

There is growing speculation that Andrew may be forced to leave Royal Lodge as part of Charles’s plan to cut royal costs. With a line looming, Andrew he has indicated that he will not go down without a fight, but has been “self-serving” by critics.

Incredibly, he has a 60+ year lease on the 30-bedroom property and is reportedly paying £250 a week for it, which former MP Norman Baker, a royal finance expert, told MailOnline that ‘I wouldn’t give you a wardrobe in London’.

Baker said, “It’s time for Andrew to start living within his means instead of waiting for other people to subsidize his lavish lifestyle.”

‘If you can’t pay a commercial rent on the property with your own money, you have to be evicted and relocate to a much smaller place. The taxpayer is subsidizing it.’
