Harry’s heartbreaking 7-word response to King Charles after being evicted from Frogmore Cottage

It’s evident that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are experiencing strained relations with King Charles and the remainder of the Royal Family. The plethora of interviews, the Netflix series, and the Duke’s autobiography left numerous royalists fuming. Allegedly, Charles reached his limit. In January the previous year, he expelled Harry and Meghan from their UK abode, Frogmore Cottage.

At that time, the couple was reportedly taken aback by the decision of the current monarch. However, fresh details have emerged, indicating that Harry even posed a perplexing query to King Charles upon receiving the news.

Following their royal union in 2018, Harry and Meghan briefly resided at Kensington Palace. However, that domicile belonged to Prince William and Kate Middleton. Subsequently, the newlyweds relocated to Nottingham Cottage, and after a brief stint there, they packed their belongings and relocated to Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Cottage premises. It was a generous wedding present from the late Queen Elizabeth.

Frogmore Cottage

Frogmore Cottage has served as a royal abode since 1792. Erected in the 1680s, the moniker was derived from the abundance of amphibians in the vicinity. Over the years, numerous members of the Royal Family have called it home. Queen Charlotte, consort of George III, initially acquired Frogmore Cottage as a rural retreat for her family, and later, it became the abode for the Duchess of Kent. The mother of Queen Victoria was interred in a mausoleum on its grounds.

In the 1980s, Frogmore underwent refurbishment and redecoration. And approximately four decades later, it welcomed two new occupants: Harry and Meghan.

The couple undertook renovations of the regal estate at a cost of approximately $3 million. Upon relinquishing their royal duties, Harry and Meghan pledged to reimburse the entire sum to UK taxpayers. Nevertheless, they retained Frogmore Cottage as their UK base for visits.

Reportedly, the royal abode had been the “solely secure refuge in the country” for Harry and Meghan since stepping back from their royal obligations, as they forfeited the privilege of police protection in the nation.

However, events took an unexpected turn. Just days after the release of Harry’s memoir, “Spare,” last January, King Charles made a definitive decision regarding the fate of the property.

A spokesperson for Harry and Meghan subsequently confirmed their eviction from Frogmore Cottage.

“We can affirm that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been instructed to vacate their residence at Frogmore Cottage,” the spokesperson informed Vanity Fair.

Harry and Meghan were ousted

Following the service of the eviction notice by Buckingham Palace, The Sun reported that Prince Andrew was offered the opportunity to occupy Frogmore. The disgraced prince presently resides in a 30-room Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park, where he has resided since 2003.

As per The Sun, Andrew was actively “resisting” the King’s directive to move into Frogmore Cottage.

“This undoubtedly signals the conclusion of Harry and Meghan’s tenure in the UK,” a royal insider disclosed to The Sun.

Harry

It was evident that neither Charles nor the other senior royals were pleased with Harry’s memoir and its contents. Since its publication, along with the other interviews and the Netflix series released in December 2022, the relationship between Harry and Meghan and the Firm has been frosty. Nonetheless, Harry and Meghan attended the funeral of Queen Elizabeth in September 2022, and last spring, Harry was present when his father was crowned at Westminster Abbey.

However, the coronation did not facilitate reconciliation.

According to reports, neither King Charles nor Prince William had perused “Spare,” but it can be inferred that they were apprised of its contents. Consequently, Harry’s rapport with his brother and father has reached an unprecedented low, with no indication of reconciliation while Harry was in the UK for last year’s coronation.

Conversations with The Sun, as deciphered by lip-reading expert Jerey Freeman, revealed several sentiments purportedly expressed by Harry to Jack Brooksbank, Princess Eugenie’s spouse, seated beside him at Westminster Abbey prior to the coronation ceremony. Allegedly, the Duke expressed frustration, murmuring: “I’m weary of their treatment of me.”

“They are indifferent”
Freeman purportedly caught Harry remarking: “It’s not an ideal situation,” to which Jack Brooksbank retorted: “If I can provide any solace, even I can. It’s not the tranquil existence, is it?”

“They are indifferent,” Harry responded.

Jack Brooksbank added: “I haven’t time for that, not if it’s over…”

“It’s an inevitability,” Harry concluded.

Prince Harry did not directly engage with his brother or King Charles during the eventful day. According to the PA News agency, Harry boarded a vehicle outside Westminster Abbey immediately after the coronation ceremony. Subsequently, he embarked on a British Airways flight and returned to Los Angeles at 19:30 local time.

His absence from the private luncheon reportedly left Charles “authentically disheartened,” as per a source cited by Daily Mail. Nonetheless, other members of the Royal Family “exhaled with relief” at Harry’s departure.

Regardless of past events, what remains immutable is King Charles’ decision to evict his son and daughter-in-law just one day following the release of “Spare” (curiously, mere months prior to his coronation).

King Charles

According to royal expert and author Omad Scobie, Charles was “incensed” by Harry’s memoir, which unquestionably influenced his son’s eviction.

Harry and Meghan were “staggered” by King Charles’ eviction ruling
Individuals close to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at the time asserted that the couple was “shocked” by the ruling.

“Harry and Meghan have until early summer to vacate,” a source disclosed to Scobie, reporting for Yahoo. “Initially, they were afforded only weeks, but now they have at least until after the coronation.”

“It all feels exceptionally definitive and punitive,” a confidant of Harry and Meghan remarked. “It’s as though [the family] desires to permanently sever ties with them.”

Now, fresh insights into the actual events emerge. Royal author Omid Scobie, purportedly a friend of Harry and Meghan, wrote in his latest publication, “Endgame,” that King Charles sought to penalize the Sussexes. He deemed it a “cheap shot..”

The author’s sources affirmed that a “significant” aspect of Harry and Meghan’s eviction was “undoubtedly” a reprisal for their release of the Netflix series just weeks earlier.
