After the death of her beloved husband Prince Philip, the Queen has mainly stayed at her residence of Windsor Castle, travelling to Buckingham Palace for official duties. After some recent health issues, it has been rumoured that Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge has come up with the idea for the Queen to move in next to her family, in Kensington Palace.

Royal Insider claimed: “If someone suggests that William and Catherine should move in next to the Queen, that’s completely normal, but if anyone were to bring up the idea that the Queen should move in next to the Cambridges it will be something very hard to believe.

“However, according to the latest report, it was the Duchess of Cambridge who suggested Her Majesty move in to live next door to William and her amid concerns about security for senior members of the Royal Family.

“Most recently a young man broke into the Queen’s private quarters at Windsor Castle on Christmas Day.

“Prince William his wife Catherine and their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis all live at the same address, apartment 1A in Kensington Palace.

“A source has suggested Her Majesty downsizes and moves into the empty apartment next to theirs at Kensington Palace.”

“It makes perfect sense really,” said the source, “with Prince Philip gone, she’s rattling around Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, which due to its sheer size is terribly difficult to protect alone.”

Royal Insider added: “Aside from a handful of trusted staff, William and Catherine have been worried about her long before an intruder shook everyone up.

“The source says it was Catherine who suggested perhaps taking her under the Cambridges wing their London residents, Catherine thinks it would be a good idea for her.

“The Queen loves the children and always says they keep her young, said the source.”

They added: “At Kensington Palace, she’ll be able to look out the window and see them playing whenever she likes. And of course, she’ll have an open invitation to pop in and see them.

“For Catherine, taking care of the Queen in her twilight years feels like the perfect way to repay her for all the counsel and guidance she’s given her since she married William.

“It makes sense to downsize, even Phillip preferred a smaller Hunter’s lodge in Sandringham to the castles toward the end. She would feel much more comfortable in a smaller home and there’s a perfect solution.

“A fully renovated empty apartment right next door to the future king and his young children.”

Prince Harry and Meghan were offered the empty apartment, however, the royal residence had an estimated cost of £4 million for renovations.

This would have meant the couple and their baby son Archie would have had to wait until winter 2020 before they could move in.

As a result, the Queen offered the use of Frogmore Cottage before the birth of the couple’s first child.

According to royal accounts published, renovations cost the taxpayer a more respectable £2.4 million in comparison.
