Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wanted to move to Windsor Castle but were given Frogmore Cottage instead, a new book has claimed.
During their relocation from Kensington Palace, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex reportedly wanted a suite of apartments at the royal residence. But according to Lady Elizabeth Anson, who was a close friend of the Queen and died in 2020, the monarch made the "generous gesture" of giving them the cottage instead, writes The Mirror.
She described the home in Windsor as a "big deal" to the Queen, who reportedly said: "I hope they'll respect it." The claim was made in 'The New Royals', a book written by Katie Nicholls, which explores the relationships between Harry, Meghan, William, Kate and the newly crowned King Charles III over the years.
