and Kate move into \u2018forever home\u2019 Forest Lodge in Windsor Great Park"},"content":{"rendered":"<p class=\"paragraph-text\">William and Kate have vacated Adelaide Cottage in Windsor\u2019s Home Park and set up residence in the Grade II-listed eight-bedroom mansion in Windsor Great Park.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">The move took place over Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis\u2019 half term, after the family set themselves the goal of moving in by Bonfire Night.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">The Telegraph reported that the family are now settling into their new home.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">The move is seen as a fresh start for the family after Kate\u2019s recovery from cancer, and comes as William prepares to make a solo trip to Rio for his annual Earthshot Prize Awards.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">But it means the Wales family are temporarily closer to William\u2019s disgraced uncle, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, who is still in his Windsor Great Park property Royal Lodge \u2013 albeit about 1.4 miles away as the crow flies from William and Kate.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">Read more: <a

agreed to quit Royal Lodge for a new home on the King\u2019s private Sandringham estate in Norfolk in the New Year, after being stripped by Charles of his prince and Duke of York titles amid the long-running Epstein scandal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">The prince and princess were said to have fully supported the King\u2019s leadership on the matter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">William is always understood to have wanted to take decisive action over his uncle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">Andrew was accused by the late Virginia Giuffre of sexually assaulting her as a teenager, after she was trafficked by paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, which the former prince denies.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">An exclusion zone was put in place around Forest Lodge in September ahead of the family\u2019s relocation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">Residents had expressed frustration at the permanent closure of nearby Cranbourne Gate and Cranbourne car park.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">Those who lived within half a mile had previously been able to apply to hold keys to the gate for a \u00a3110-a-year fee.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">Additional fencing was introduced on parts of the 2.3 mile perimeter around the 150-acre no-go zone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">It is a criminal offence to trespass on a protected site designated under the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act (SOCPA) 2005.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph-text\">The Wales family also have a 10-bedroom mansion, Anmer Hall, on the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, and Apartment 1A in Kensington Palace in London.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"William and Kate have vacated Adelaide Cottage in Windsor\u2019s Home
