The monarch made the 'generous gesture' of giving them the cottage instead, according to a close friend of the Queen
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wanted to move to Windsor Castle but were given Frogmore Cottage instead, a new book has claimed.
She described the home in Windsor as a "big deal" to the Queen, who reportedly said: "I hope they'll respect it." The claim was made in 'The New Royals', a book written by Katie Nicholls, which explores the relationships between Harry, Meghan, William, Kate and the newly crowned King Charles III over the years.
"She was giving that up in gifting Harry and Meghan Frogmore Cottage. We all thought it was very big of her. She said, 'I hope they'll respect it.' " The rift between the Sussexes and other members of the Royal Family has been seen in headlines over the past couple of years where Harry and Meghan have been critical of their life in the UK when talking to American media since their move to the US.
