William & Kate Are Ditching London to be more like Harry & Meghan

Of course they will still be close enough to still be able to kiss Grandma’s ass.

Prince William and Kate Middleton are moving — but don’t worry, they’re not going as far as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle!

The royal couple is reportedly planning to pack up their London life and head 30 miles west to Berkshire county, where Queen Elizabeth II’s primary residence, Windsor Castle, is located. Hmm. So they’re cozying up to the Queen? That’s nice!

According to The Sunday Times, the decision was mostly out of a desire to give their kids Prince George, 8, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4, a better lifestyle!

People confirmed on Monday that Prince George and Princess Charlotte will leave their school, Thomas’s Battersea, at the end of the current school year. They will then enroll in a school in the Windsor area, though a specific learning institution has yet to be announced.

It’s still unclear where the family plans to live, but many have reported that they will move into Adelaide Cottage on the Windsor estate. The Palace has yet to confirm that though. In the future, they might one day move into “the big house” — aka Windsor Castle — seeing as it is believed that Prince Charles doesn’t have a desire to spend as much time there as the Queen does now, The Sunday Times reported. Interesting!

The major move not only gets the family closer to Her Majesty, but they will also be closer to Kate’s family! She was raised in Bucklebury, where her parents, Carole and Michael Middleton, still live. Now they will be just a 40-minute car ride away.

Most importantly, it seems William and Kate would like to give their kids some more freedom to be, well, kids! A friend told the outlet:

“The reality is they are quite confined in what they can do in London. The kids can’t go into the park and kick a football with friends.”

That makes total sense!

Don’t be surprised if they decided to pick up and move again, either. Berkshire is not the couple’s final destination — instead, it is presumed that they’ll move to their country getaway Anmer Hall in Norfolk once the kids are older since that “is their happy place,” the friend added:

“Their plan is to be there for the next 10 to 15 years and then move to Anmer, which is so special to them.”

William was the hotter teen, when Harry was quite ugly. Then William started to lose his looks (and his hair) and Harry became the hotter brother. Now Harry has balding brillo on his head and a whiny attitude. William has grown into his middle age looks and has a kind of quiet alpha big dick energy, which makes him once again, the hotter brother.

Harry has been hotter for a good 15 years.

I’d love to see them relocate to the Los Angeles area too, but I guess they’ve got to stay in the UK to put up a good front. It will be hard for their children to become close when there is so much distance.

William and Kate will get Adelaide Cottage and, later on, very likely Windsor Castle.

Harry and Meghan ended up with Toad Hall aka Frogmore Cottage.

R21 They have access to two (possibly soon to be three) - none of which they own: Anmer Hall, Apartment 1a in Kensington Palace and, if the reports are true - Adelaide Cottage on the Windsor Estate.

Rich people often have at least a couple of houses.

They are rich. You aren’t. Deal.

The Cambridges, who share nothing with the Markles except a bit of DNA, own Anmer Hall, a wedding gift from the Queen. The others mentioned are Crown properties, a system that dumb American Marklefraus do not have the power to understand.

R12 is right. William in his prime was the hottest member of the royal family for a long, long time. He was full movie star, Hollywood pin-up hot. He began to age early. For a couple of years when he was in the military, Harry was the hotter brother. Both have now thoroughly lost their youthful hotness and appeal (goddamn those Windsor genes are brutal) but I agree that William has some kind of future King/DILF swagger going on right now that even in the face of his much diminished looks means he remains fuckable. Quite fuckable, actually.

Harry so far has no such DILF energy, and I suspect he'll never acquire any (due mostly to the fact that being pussywhipped is an inherent turn off).

William also has a *much* better body than Harry. He's fit in a way the ginge isn't.

William is better-looking overall, IMO. However, I have noticed that Harry does seem to have a decent-sized package. Look at photos of Harry, crotch area. No VPL, but it's always filled-out. That said, he doesn't have BDE. He has pussy-whipped energy. William looks angry a lot of the time. Kate seems happy or else she's a good actress and / or too dumb to know better. I think this (being royal) was what she's always wanted.

She and Harry allegedly asked for an apartment at Windsor Castle, r26. They were supposed to receive an apartment at Kensington Palace, but William kiboshed that after he heard the bullying allegations.

Happy or not The Markles have made their bed turds & all & they can't blame Amber for it. They did all of it to themselves. No one stuck a gun to their heads to do the Oprah, Dax Shepherd crap, & all the other stuff. Hope they can get to living their new lives & forget about Ole' Blighty they are toast there.

Grow up & move on, kids. Times moving on, you are getting older & less appealing to the young'ins by the minute.

As to all the Megan stans, if you're not paid shills directed by her insanity, then encourage her to embrace her own life. It can be full. The crowds at St. Paul's shouting, "We don't want you here, go away", summed it all up. They are wanted or needed in England anymore. Make due with all that you have in the US, that's what you said you wanted. You got it, stop moaning about it.

Only a small portion of it burned down, and that was a full thirty years ago. They restored it pretty quickly.

Windsor Castle has always been the place the Queen has most considered home since her parents moved there in 1936. She's never considered Buckingham Palace a proper home at all, and has always spent more time in Windsor whenever she can (it is not very far from London). None of the royal family much enjoys spending time in Buck House--they've never figured out a way to heat it properly.

Buckingham Palace wasn’t always the home of the monarch, and there’s still the Court of St. James. There’s no good reason, other than it’s not in London, for Windsor Castle not being made the official residence of the British monarch.. Keep Buckingham Palace as a museum and storage building.

by Anonymousreply 60June 15, 2022 11:46 PM

Have any of its residents ever liked living at BP? I read that Churchill and Parliament basically told QEII and her young family they had to take up residence there, against their wishes. They cried as they were chauffeured from Clarence House to BP. I'm pretty sure I read King George VI and the Queen Mother preferred to live at Royal Lodge.

by Anonymousreply 61June 16, 2022 12:11 AM

Buckingham Palace is an icon. The home of the monarch in the capital. Looking down The Mall toward the seat of the British government. There is aq kind of living drama about the royal standard flying, saying the King is here. Imagine the White House as an office and venue but the President living at Camp David. It's all symbolic, but powerful symbols.

Some of these royal digs sound lavish but I recall seeing photos of some living quarters at Kensington Palace, etc. and most DL’ers would deem them rather tacky. I have two retired co-worker friends both with beach and mountain cottages. They seem well off by my standard but are retired state workers. So, three places to live for a future King isn’t that much.

Harry looks like he’d fuck your brains out; William looks like he’d cry after “coitus”.

Either way, William was already past his prime by the time he married and Harry is just about there.

At least they’re both rich and have Daddy around to pay their bills. As married men. With children. So much for ‘BDE’.

There are legitimately anti-William trolls on DL now, popping up within the past few weeks and trying hard to make 'William the Terrible' happen. It's kind of a new strategy to come for William and not "anorexic/fugly/doormat/unfuckable" Kate. Good luck with it, because William comes across to most of the UK public as the only one with a spine and the BDE energy is real.

by Anonymousreply 79June 28, 2022 12:16 AM

"Doughy." Uh-huh. Right.

Trolls, it works best if you base your trolling on something that COULD be true. Like the baldness thing works better because William actually is mostly bald. The doughy and weak thing doesn't work because it's so obviously not true.

It's not exactly unusual. As soon as my brother and sister-in-law had their first child, they moved out of the city and back to the rural county that my brother was raised in.
