Royal Family News: Prince William And Kate Huge Move Planned In Near Future?

British royal family news divulges that Prince William and Kate the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge could make a major move in the near future. According to The Mail on Sunday the family may pick up stakes and relocate closer to the Queen. If this transpires, it would be the most visible clue to date that the couple are stepping into higher level senior roles within the Royal Family.

One source shared that William and Kate have been, “eyeing up,” properties in the area compatible with raising three young children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Will The Cambridges Relocate?

The properties under consideration allegedly include Fort Belvedere, a Grade II listed house toward the southern end of Windsor Great Park, where King Edward VIII signed his abdication papers in 1936.

Moving could prove be a strategic and practical matter as major changes are said to be in store for The Firm. Now the Cambridges divide their time between a London base at Kensington Palace, and their country home of Anmer Hall in Norfolk.

 Will The Cambridges Move Their Three Children?

The Sandringham Estate home is a cherished wedding gift from the Queen. After it was refurbished William and Kate made it their permanent residence from 2015 to 2017.

It’s in a rural location that allowed William to continue his helicopter pilot work for the East Anglian Air Ambulance, and kept the prying public away from their young children. Now the two older kids are in school in London.

There Could Be A Huge Move Ahead

According to one source, “Anmer Hall made sense while William was a helicopter pilot in East Anglia and it was useful for Christmases at Sandringham, but it doesn’t really work any more. It’s a little too far away for weekends, but Windsor is a perfect compromise. They are eyeing up options in the area.”

There are other perks that would come with such a move including being closer to Kate’s parents, Michael and Carole Middleton. They live in Bucklebury, Berkshire, and have been very hands-on grandparents.

Additionally Kate’s sister Pippa, her husband James Matthews and their children have a home in the village.

The 95-year old monarch is close to Prince William, and when he was in college he would often have Sunday lunch with his grandparents in the castle’s Oak Room.
