The Queen makes Windsor Castle her permanent home

The Queen will reportedly no longer live at Buckingham Palace after making Windsor Castle her permanent home. Usually residing in London, the Queen spent the last two years working at home from Windsor Castle due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The 95-year old, who has recently suffered from more health concerns including Covid-19, is said to have made Windsor Castle her home, with the palace no longer deemed a suitable long-term option. Buckingham Palace has been the official royal residence since 1837 and is currently undergoing a £369 million refurbishment, due to be completed in 2027.

When renovations first began, it was planned the Queen would move out of her private apartments temporarily. But it has been decided that she will move out permanently to minimise her travel, reports The Mirror.
