After William and Kate moved in
This is the new power center of the British royal family
Prince William and Duchess Kate moved in. Thus, the center of power of the members of the royal family has also shifted.

Kate and William announced on Monday that they will be staying at Adelaide Cottage near Windsor Castle from September.
According to one expert, the move of the Queen’s grandson Prince William, 40, and his family cements Windsor Castle’s position as the new center of power for the royal family.
Craig Prescott of Bangor University told dpa in London that Queen Elizabeth II (96) is now permanently residing at the property in west London. “The Queen is increasingly accompanied on appointments by another member of the royal family, and the proximity to Windsor Castle will make that a little easier,” Prescott said. In addition, the Queen is increasingly dependent on heir to the throne Prince Charles (73) and his son William when it comes to issues of the monarchy and the royal family. “It would also be easier.”
William’s children go to a new school
Prescott said William and Kate’s move, 40, was a natural consequence of the Queen moving her court from Buckingham Palace in London to Windsor. Windsor increasingly became the centerpiece of the monarchy. In this sense, it is a very recent example of what has always happened in the monarchy – that the focus is always where the king rests.”
Kate and William announced Monday that they will be staying at Adelaide Cottage near Windsor Castle from September and all children will attend Lambrook Private School near Ascot. With this, they want to enable Prince George (9 years), Princess Charlotte (7 years) and Prince Louis (4 years) to live as normal a life as possible and have more freedom.
“Outlines Beginnings of Low Ownership”
Prescott said the decision could one day seem more important than it is today. “Perhaps these are the beginnings of the outlines of a smaller ownership, as members of the royal family are increasingly concentrated in London and Windsor and may own fewer properties elsewhere.”
However, the couple has not yet announced that they will be giving up their former residence at Kensington Palace, which will only be used as a workplace, or the country residence Anmer Hall in Norfolk, eastern England. (SDA)
