Reports suggest that King Charles made the decision to evict Prince Harry and Meghan Markle from Frogmore Cottage due to Harry’s repeated criticism of Queen Consort Camilla.
The King reportedly reached a point where he believed Harry had ‘crossed a line’ following claims made in their Netflix series and Harry’s memoir “Spare,” in which he referred to Camilla as ‘the villain.’
The eviction proceedings reportedly started on January 11, the day after the book’s release. Sources say the accusations have caused irreparable damage to Harry’s relationship with his father and brother, Prince William.
The decision to evict the Sussexes from Frogmore Cottage was difficult for the King, particularly as he was keen not to add fuel to the fire of their ongoing row.
The King is understood to be particularly keen to sort out many of the nagging issues remaining around Harry, Meghan, and Prince Andrew before his coronation, which have been allowed to ‘drag on’ for far too long.
The house has already been offered to Prince Andrew, who is said to resist pressure to ‘downsize’ from the seven-bedroom Royal Lodge.
Meanwhile, it is understood that the Crown Estate, which leases out Frogmore to the Sussexes, might end up owing the couple money.
Harry and Meghan were given use of Frogmore Cottage in 2018 by Queen Elizabeth amid their explosive fall-out with the Prince and Princess of Wales.
It was originally five run-down staff residences but was knocked back into one large home with a private garden, initially using £ 2.4 million in taxpayers’ money.
Buckingham Palace refused to comment on the decision to ask the Sussexes to pack up their remaining belongings from Frogmore Cottage by early summer.
However, a spokesman for the couple confirmed that they had been ‘requested to vacate their residence at Frogmore Cottage,’ which is a sign of their shock and anger at the move.
The latest twist in the ongoing war of the Windsors suggests there are even more doubts over their appearance at the King’s coronation on May 6.
