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 H&M signed a lease. So Charles is breaking it. I hope they get the deposit back.

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. The same house they made me repay the money for the renovations for because tax payers money!!!!!!!!!!!!

The sources I've seen are The Sun and The Daily Beast so I'd normally take it with a teaspoon of salt, but Omid Scobie also wrote about it and he's usually getting info from Sussex sources. 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 Sussexes have confirmed now.

I Hope they are smart and have some property in their name in the UK.

And again it means absolutely no way Harry or at least Meghan is coming to the UK. They can’t bring their own security and not staying on the grounds of the family means no security at all. Nope I’m not coming then

And obviously in the grand scheme of things it’s fine it’s Charles house or whatever so he can do what he wishes it’s just sad

Wow Chuck really holds a grudge huh. This is a huge middle finger. Harold better get on that next book because there’s absolutely zero chance these relationships will mend.

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. Removing him from his Councillor of State role is what this is all about, imo. Charles is shit and cruelty is the point as far as he is concerned, but I can almost guarantee that he has people whispering in his ear who don't want Harry having any power and moving behind the scenes to protect themselves. Will and Kate are so ridiculous with their housing situations. I just can't even with them.

Like Chuck is showing that he actually literally ranks a nasty pedophile above his son. I mean it’s no secret he doesn’t like Andy either. That’s how much he hates Harold.

Frankly, this is all just adding to their bad PR. They are furthering the narrative that Meghan and Harry are victims of the BRF and highlighting just how ridiculous the housing situation is amongst the royals. Chuck needs to learn that keeping things out of the public is the best way to keep people feeling positive about the monarchy. Most people won't read the actual financial disclosure documents every year, but they sure as heck will take note that Andrew pays only 250 pounds/week for Royal Lodge.

While they struggle to pay bills and eat. But hey Charles and crew donate to the shelters and Will’s cause is working with the homeless

Maybe this is a way to ensure H+M won't be able to come to the coronation? That way Charles gets to look like the good guy saying he invited them, but they chose not to come.

I mean, he can afford to buy a place in the UK if that's what he wants. Royal protection issue notwithstanding, which is a valid concern.

And really pretty disgusting. But I think the family and their supporters will portray it as a money saving measure- Andy in Royal Lodge costs a lot of money to maintain and Frogmore costs less. I wonder though if this means the Waleses will not be getting Windsor as was rumored to be their end game in moving to Adelaide. I’m also sure that Charles’ team, if it becomes necessary to pretend this wasn’t an FU to the Sussexes will leak that of course they can come stay with him where his royal protection is if they want to come visit and he’d love that. 🙄

Oh he probably is, but I also think Andrew could put up a big public stink and Chaz doesn't want that ahead of his Big Boy I'm The King Party.

Also, they all "rent" or "lease" these properties. So Andrew paid a huge amount of money to live there - it was millions or something.
So there are some weird legalities in moving them, that are archaic and stupid of course.

I also learned he pays rent of 250/week, about 400K annually in maintenance and taxes, has spent like 7 million on renovations and it has 30 rooms. I legit never gave it any thought before this, other than to think it's funny that he and Fergie still live together. That's part of the point that I was making above. KC3 has brought all of this into the spotlight by "punishing" Harry and Meghan. It backfires more than it stirs up the anti-Meghan base. People aren't going to become more anti-Harry and Meghan over this. They may just become more anti-monarchy over it though and that won't be good for KC3 and Camilla.

Also, Chaz doesn't want them staying with him.
So they should totally call his bluff and be publicly like "we're so excited to come and stay with dear old dad!" and then let him meltdown.
The more they pin him, the more they win.

What is interesting though is earlier this week, Charles was being criticized for some meetings that were seen as too political. Now suddenly here is a Sussex story! Maybe they’re related, maybe they’re not.
