Prince William and Kate Middleton will move into their new home nearby Adelaide Cottage by the end of this month. Meanwhile, The Sun confirms that the Sussexes plan to stay at their five-bed Frogmore Cottage on the Queen’s Windsor estate. The two places are barely a five-minute walk away from each other – roughly 800 metres away.
However, insiders claim that the two brothers do not plan to meet or catch up like friendly neighbours. Royal expert, Ingrid Seward confirmed:
I don’t think they would bump into one another unless it was pre-arranged.
Prince Harry and Meghan renewed their lease on the Frogmore Cottage and gave a sign that they’re not yet disappearing from the Royal Family scene, claims Express.co.uk. A source confirmed
By agreeing to extend the lease, and with Jack and Eugenie focusing on Portugal, they have a firm presence smack bang in the middle of Windsor court where it is all happening
Visiting the Queen?
While the Sussexes will be in the UK, Her Majesty is expected to be on a break in Balmoral and may not get the time to meet them. A source confirmed:
It is expected family conversations will take place to see if there is any space in their diaries — but there is a lot on, especially for the Queen.
MailOnline has also confirmed that the Sussexes will not be bringing along their kids – Archie and Lilibet – with them. This may be due to the lawsuit that Prince Harry filed against the UK government in a security row.
