King Charles' underground bunker
As of now, King Charles and Queen Camilla are still living at Clarence House. However, the Royal couple may move to Buckingham Palace later in the year once the renovations are finished.
According to Historic Cornwall, it is more than likely that the King has a secret room, underground, for safety reasons. Reports suggest that the room is accessible by a secret lift. The room is said to have vault-like doors to keep those inside safe. Historic Cornwall wrote:
When Cold War fears first started to rise after the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, the castle converted an underground coal cellar into a nuclear bunker beneath the staterooms.
It sure sounds like this secret room is somewhat of a bunker that could protect the monarch from any nuclear incidents.
