The late Queen's right-hand woman has today been spotted waving goodbye to her grace-and-favour home after emotionally moving out.
Angela Kelly, who was the former monarch's personal dresser and designed many of her most memorable and colourful outfits, took to Instagram last month to say she would be leaving her property on the Windsor estate following the death of her former boss.
It came as she was left facing an uncertain future with King Charles, who was said to be not a fan of hers - although it has since been reported the new monarch has secretly gifted the woman so close to his late mother a new home in Yorkshire, so she could be near her family.
Pictures from today show Ms Kelly waving as she prepared to leave her old grace-and-favour home - owned by the sovereign and granted free of rent to a person to whom the sovereign wishes to express gratitude - as a huge removals lorry stood outside.
Last week, she was seen loading some of her possessions into a removals van looking emotional as she packed up her things.
At one point, she was even seen being comforted by a man, appearing to be tearful as she carried out the task.
Her move comes as a report yesterday claimed that the King has banned Ms Kelly from sharing royal secrets in exchange for her new home.
She has already published two books about her role, but this was with the Queen's blessing.
It is understood that she had permission from the Queen to pen a third, but the new agreement will likely scupper those plans, The Mail on Sunday reported.
The King reportedly felt that an updated version of Ms Kelly's second book, 'The Other Side Of The Coin: The Queen, The Dresser And The Wardrobe' went "too far" in terms of revealing intimate details about the Royal Family.
In the book, Ms Kelly described the Queen's behaviour following the funeral of her husband Prince Philip.
"I helped her off with her coat and hat and no words were spoken. The Queen then walked to her sitting room, closed the door behind her, and she was alone with her own thoughts," she wrote.
News of Ms Kelly's move came last month when she took to her personal Instagram account to reveal she would be moving - and said her work phone has been cut off.
The dresser, who bubbled up with the late Queen and Prince Philip at Windsor Castle during the Covid pandemic, posted a picture of what appeared to be her garden.
Accompanying the snap, she wrote: "Getting ready to say goodbye. I am moving at last to my new home which I will be able to call My Home at last."
Ms Kelly, a dock worker's daughter from Liverpool, worked for the late Queen for almost 30 years and became one of her most trusted confidants.
The pair were said to chat about "anything and everything”, as they drank tea and swapped jokes and anecdotes about their grandchildren.
In a rare interview with the Telegraph in 2007, she said: "We are two typical women. We discuss clothes, make-up, jewellery. We say, 'Would this piece of jewellery look nice with that outfit?', and things like that."
However, Charles is believed to have had concerns Ms Kelly's books, which were mainly based on the monarch's wardrobe but also included behind-the-scenes pictures.
A source previously told the Daily Mail: "His concerns were solely about protecting both the dignity of the Queen and the Crown.
"Nothing has changed with his mother's death. If anything, he is more determined to defend her reputation and her legacy."
In March, she was recognised by the King in the Queen's demise honours list but she only became a Commander of the Royal Victorian Order, rather than a Dame Commander.
A royal source previously told the Mail On Sunday: "The King has made it clear that under the new reign, people will have to cut their cloth. The King is clearly not in the habit of providing homes for those no longer working for the Monarchy."
