Harry and Meghan have made plans to move out of their current home in London, are moving to a cottage in Windsor which is just a stone's throw away from where they were married earlier this year.

The couple currently live in Nottingham Cottage within the grounds of Kensington Palace, and had plans to move into a bigger apartment inside the same palace in preparation of the arrival of their baby.

The apartment that Harry and Meghan were going to move into had been described as a "very special place" for the couple and has just undergone £1.4 million worth of renovations in preparation for their arrival, so this news comes at quite a surprise.

Frogmore Cottage, a gift from the Queen to Harry and Meghan, offers a nursery for the baby and ten bedrooms, compared to just two at Nottingham Cottage.

Coincidentally, it is part of the estate where King Edward VIII and his wife Wallis Simpson are buried.

Meghan, 37, and Harry, 34, are also said to be keen to move further away from William and Kate, who live in a 20-room apartment inside Kensington Palace.

The royal brothers feel it is time to end their joint court, amid reports of 'tension' between them.

With Harry set to become a father for the first time and William already a father of three, the brothers are seemingly ready to concentrate on their own separate households.

"Harry and Meghan want to move, and need more space, but they don't want to live next door to William and Catherine", a royal source said.

"There is no reason why their London home has to be at Kensington Palace. There are plenty of other options, including using their own money to buy their own place," the source revealed.
