Camilla and Charles may have to ‘stay’ at Highgrove says expert

Prince Charles and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall have been spending the national lockdown at their Highgrove House home, royal commentators have claimed. The couple spent Christmas at the Gloucestershire property, which is also where the future king and his former wife Diana, Princess of Wales, spent much of their children’s early lives. ITV Royal Rota podcast hosts Chris Ship and Lizzie Robinson discussed the current locations of members of the Royal Family.

Mr Ship told listeners: “William and Kate have now finished their Christmas holidays at Anmer Hall.

“However I suspect they’ll end up staying in Norfolk.

“We’re back in lockdown in England and there’s no schooling.

“The Queen remains in Windsor.”

He continued: “Charles and Camilla were at Highgrove for the Christmas period.

“I don’t think they can move around because of the lockdown.

“So they might have to stay there for the time being.”

Highgrove is situated south-west of Tetbury and was initially used by Charles and Diana for weekends after their 1981 marriage.

Camilla’s ‘traumatic period in life’ discussed by expert

When they had Prince William and Prince Harry, the family spent much more time at the house.

Charles and Camilla’s London property, Clarence House, is their primary home.

The couple spent the first national lockdown in March at Birkhall on the royal Balmoral estate in Scotland.

According to UK Government guidelines, Britons are not allowed to leave their home or the place they are living for holidays or overnight stays unless a reasonable excuse is given. This includes staying in a second home, if that is not the primary residence.

Ms Robinson added further insight into what could be expected of the working royals in the upcoming weeks amid national restrictions.

She said: “I imagine what we’ll see is a massive push in the coming weekends to again focus everyone’s attention on charity, causes, people that are struggling and people that are helping.

“All those sorts of things they did so successfully the first time around.

“I think we will see a renewed effort.”

It comes as Buckingham Palace confirmed earlier this month the traditional garden parties the Queen hosts at several properties across the UK have been cancelled.
