The Prince and Princess of Wales will move to a new forever home, Forest Lodge in Windsor, before the end of the year

Prince William and Princess Kate will be spending the next few months enjoying their time at Adelaide Cottage before moving to another Windsor abode. By the end of the year, the Prince and Princess of Wales - alongside their three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis - will be settled in at Forest Lodge.

But soon after the family started to unpack, things changed again. Queen Elizabeth died, just as Kate Middleton and Prince William landed in the dwelling. “It was not exactly the settling-in period they had hoped for,” a source said of that period in the Waleses’ lives.
