Hidden away in a corner of Carmarthenshire there sits a sprawling, ancient property that was purchased 15 years ago by the Prince of Wales. During those years, Prince Charles and his wife Camilla stayed at the tranquil farmhouse - located on Llwynywermod Estate on the outskirts of Myddfai, near Llandovery - countless times and ingratiated themselves with locals who were thrilled to have prominent members of the Royal Family as neighbours.
That family has had a tumultuous few weeks since the death of Queen Elizabeth II on September 8. The world’s glare turned to them as Britain welcomed a new monarch for the first time since Elvis Presley was a teenager, and amongst all the mourning, a restructuring of the family’s hierarchy was taking place.

Chief among that, of course, was the ascension of Prince Charles to become King Charles III. That meant that his eldest son, Prince William, and his wife Catherine, became the new Prince and Princess of Wales. And with that comes a lot more than just a title. While the very idea of having a Prince of Wales in 2022 has been hotly debated in recent weeks - what is certain is that William has not only become the Prince of Wales, but he has automatically assumed other titles including Duke of Cornwall, Earl of Chester and Duke of Rothesay.
