The long-rumoured housing arrangements of the Prince and Princess of Wales have finally been confirmed, with official documents revealing that Prince William and Kate Middleton have secured a 20-year lease on Forest Lodge, their new Windsor residence.
Details of the agreement were disclosed in a briefing by the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), confirming that the royal couple signed a non-assignable lease based on 'open market value'. The lease began on 5 July 2025 and is set to run until 2045, ending months of speculation surrounding the permanence of their move.
