The Duke of Sussex found himself in a state of despair after being forcibly ousted from his cherished abode.
Reports suggest that he is currently on the lookout for a permanent residence in the United Kingdom for his family, subsequent to their expulsion from Frogmore Cottage.
Last year, he penned his memoir Spare, delving into the eviction from Frogmore Cottage and expressing his deep affection for the UK.
Initially envisioned as the Duke of Sussex’s enduring abode, it ultimately transformed into a fleeting stopover in his literary journey.
However, upon the ascension of his father, the King, to the throne, they were compelled to vacate the premises.
The Duke fondly reminisced about the property in his book, stating, “We adored that place.”
Following their withdrawal from senior royal duties in 2020, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex established their residence in California.
In an interview with the Mirror, royal expert Tom Quinn revealed that the Duke feels a sense of melancholy due to the absence of a British address and yearns for his former social circle.
Quinn remarked that with the passage of time, the Duke misses aspects of his previous life in the UK, particularly his connections with old friends from Eton and the army, some of whom have distanced themselves due to issues with the Duchess.
Driven by the desire to secure a permanent home in the UK, the Duke is actively pursuing legal measures to compel the British taxpayer to cover his security expenses.
A dispute has arisen between the Duke of York and the King over the ownership of Frogmore Cottage.
Speculation abounds that the Queen has urged Prince Andrew to downsize from his residence at Royal Lodge to Frogmore Cottage.
However, neither sibling has reached a resolution, with the Duke of York declining the proposition thus far.
Following Andrew’s resignation from official duties in 2019, the Home Office terminated his police protection, resulting in the King assuming the responsibility for his £3 million annual security costs.
The ongoing saga surrounding the royal residences has sparked intrigue and debate among royal watchers and the public.
How will this familial feud unfold, and what implications will it have for the monarchy?
