It seems like Prince William and Kate Middleton are making headlines yet again. This time, it’s because of the details about the rent for their Windsor home, which reportedly became public, rather recently. According to a new report, it has been declared that the celebrated royal couple is actually paying more than £307,500 annually, which converts to over $410,000.
This is the complete price structure for their family residence, the Forest Lodge, which is located within Windsor Great Park. The unexpectedly surprising figures have now left many royal fans and followers completely stunned.
Prince William and Kate Middleton pay over $410K in home rent, claims report
As reported by The Times, the recently released official Land Registry documents revealed that the Prince and Princess of Wales signed a 20-year lease for the Grade II-listed property last year. But that’s not all, the main estate itself is also said to include two cottages within the grounds. However, it seems these additional facilities aren’t for the family but are reportedly used by some of their staff members.
Furthermore, the coveted publication claimed that the rent attached to the royal property is considerably higher than what previous tenants allegedly paid for the same. Earlier reports actually suggested the estate had previously been rented for around £216,000 annually before William and Kate took over the lease. Keeping up with this, the newly surfaced details have also reignited conversations surrounding royal residences and finances.
The report comes not too long after public discussions involving Prince Andrew and his Royal Lodge arrangement reportedly drew attention online. Even though the Prince and Princess of Wales have continued to maintain a fairly private family life in Windsor, the revelation surrounding the staggering rent amount has quickly become a major talking point across social media, with many people expressing shock at the enormous yearly cost tied to the royal residence.
