Prince William and Kate Middleton are facing backlash as the pair move their family over to Windsor in the coming weeks.The Cambridges are moving from Kensington Palace to Adelaide Cottage with their three children, Prince George, nine, Princess Charlotte, seven, and Prince Louis, four — with the family aiming to get settled in at their new home before the next school year begins. Adelaide Cottage sits in Windsor's Home Park, a private 655 acre royal park which is managed by the Crown Estate, with William and Kate being given permission to live in the 19th century, four-bed cottage by Queen Elizabeth II.
The family will be paying market rent on the cottage, as they are leasing the property, and becomes a part of the handful of properties at the couple's disposal — including Anmer Hall in Norfolk and Tam-Na-Gha cottage on the Queen's Balmoral Estate. While the pair are not going to be living at Kensington Palace, they will be keeping the residence as their London base — leading to some criticism from the general public, as they ask why one family need so many homes.
Russell Myers, the royal editor at the Daily Mirror, has discussed the Cambridges' upcoming move, as well as the controversy surrounding it, on the latest episode of Pod Save The Queen. He said: “An awful lot of money was spent on Kensington Palace — in the region of £12-13 million so they could live in Apartment 1A.
“They are still keeping Anmer Hall as a holiday house — their big Norfolk home which was a gift from the Queen, which has obviously had an awful lot of money spent on it. I think it’s got a tennis court, a swimming pool — that sort of stuff.
