I’ve been hearing whispers around Windsor that William and Kate might be itching for a little more elbow room.
Yes, Adelaide Cottage has its charm — four bedrooms, close to Lambrook School, and it’s where Kate quietly recovered from her cancer treatment — but apparently, the Waleses feel they’ve outgrown it.
One name keeps popping up in the chatter: Fort Belvedere. Now, this isn’t just any house tucked away in the park.
We’re talking 59 acres of lawns, gardens, stables, lakes, and even a tennis court (which, let’s be honest, would make Charlotte very happy).
The place is steeped in royal history, too. Edward VIII once lived there — and signed his abdication papers inside its walls before running off to France with Wallis Simpson. Not exactly a dull backstory.
The fort’s current residents are the Weston family, of Primark fortune fame.
They’ve added their own touches over the years — a polo stud for King Charles’ ponies, an expanded lake — but the Gothic Revival spirit still lingers.
It’s the kind of estate that feels private yet grand, which is probably why it’s so tempting for a family trying to balance royal duty with school runs.
Whether they’ll actually pack up and move is another question.
William and Kate seem to be taking their time, weighing options, and keeping George’s future school in mind.
