Prince William and Kate move family into 'forever home'
The Prince and Princess of Wales and their three children have moved into their “forever home”, an eight-bedroom mansion in Windsor Great Park.
William and Kate vacated Adelaide Cottage in Windsor’s Home Park and set up residence in the Grade II-listed mansion, Forest Lodge.
The move took place over Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis’ half term break, after the family set themselves the goal of moving in by Bonfire Night.

The move is seen as a fresh start for the family after Kate’s recovery from cancer, and comes as William prepares to make a solo trip to Rio for his annual Earthshot Prize Awards.
But it means the Wales family is temporarily closer to William’s disgraced uncle, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, who is still in his Windsor Great Park property Royal Lodge - albeit about 2.5km away as the crow flies.
Andrew has finally agreed to quit Royal Lodge for a new home on the King’s private Sandringham estate in Norfolk in the New Year, after being stripped by King Charles of his prince and Duke of York titles amid the long-running Epstein scandal.
The prince and princess were said to have fully supported the King’s leadership on the matter.
William is always understood to have wanted to take decisive action over his uncle.
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.
An exclusion zone was put in place around Forest Lodge in September ahead of the family’s relocation.
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.
