And if the rumor is true, WTF to W&K? Not caping for the Yorks at all. But they have lived there forever with their girls. Forcing them to move is some petty shit, there are loads of properties to choose from. It would also cost a ton of $$ to reno Royal Lodge. I assume or looks the same as it did in 1990. W&k spent $$$$$ and years renovating their current place So they are just flipping? Good strategy 🙄

Did you see where the BRF is giving George an unprecedented prominent role in the coronation? Supposedly they are going to parade him around to ensure the public that he is the future of the monarchy.

Some clicky article I read said that Chuck was also “prominent” in Liz’s coronation.
By…. his position standing between the Queen Mother and (?) Margaret during the ceremony. Idk. If George is just THERE that seems okay. If he’s paraded around I don’t like that much but it surprises me zero. Charles using his grandson to garner good favor is exactly the shitty behavior I expect from him.

Rumor is Charles is giving Frogmore to Andrew. Which I get they don’t expect Harry and Meghan to come back etc but it was a gift and 2 they made them pay back all the renovations due to the tax payers money blah blah I saw a headline that said something like "Charles to EVICT Harry and Meghan...". It's not evict, it's more like takesy backsy if anything.

Also standard royal leases are 99 years but Frogmore is 2.

W&K allegedly wanted Royal Lodge over Adelaide Cottage right? So they renovated that, bragged they had no "live in" staff, and now might move to a 30 bedroom or whatever Lodge that will probably be $$$$$ to remodel also and will surely have live in staff
There was a guy from London at the wedding we attended this weekend and I almost asked him his thoughts on the BRF. I should have!

By taking away Frogmore, Charles is ensuring that H&M have nowhere to stay with royal protection, and potentially removing any UK residence for Harry which could mean taking him out of his Councillor of State role.

Sorry you have no say in your own future George, but here's a pony and a private chef! Charlotte, you know what you have to do. Louis, don't be like uncle H.

Let’s be real no one from the family will confirm anything anyway. So unless we see moving trucks which I doubt will happen we will always be wondering

I really don't feel like working so I'm speculating instead.

Using kids as human props is just gross.
I think the parading about of George is also calculated to be all "aw, look how cute George is" in an attempt to shield the horrible institution that is the monarchy.

Harold's bonus chapter: you thought I was pissed when my stepmother turned my room into a closet, now they gave my rapey uncle my house. I have petrol and matches and I'm burning this bitch to the ground.
