William, Kate’s Windsor Move Displaces Two Families for Security

Prince William and Princess Kate Middleton are preparing to move their family to Forest Lodge, an eight-bedroom mansion in Windsor Great Park, which they consider their 'forever home' even after William becomes King. This move has resulted in two nearby families, identified as elderly pensioners including a retired cardiologist, being asked to vacate their cottages to accommodate enhanced security measures around the property. The cottages, formerly converted from stables, will be repurposed as police houses to support the royal family's privacy and safety due to the openness of the site. The decision to move was influenced partly by Kate's close family ties, as her parents and siblings live nearby, along with considerations for their children's schooling. Forest Lodge is undergoing renovations funded by the royal couple to prepare for their arrival later this year, offering them both security and access to the countryside. The displaced residents were reportedly not given prior notice, highlighting the strict security protocols surrounding the royal family's relocation.
