Kate Middleton and Prince William's move rumors are becoming more concrete.

The family is expected to move to Windsor in the summer.

Prince Andrew has an important role to play in this.

Windsor – Prince William (39) and Kate Middleton (40) spend their family life at their country house Anmer Hall and at Kensington Palace in central London.

But it has long been said that the couple wanted to move and had already looked at appropriate schools.

Closer proximity to Queen Elizabeth has been key so far, but there's another reason the Cambridges are looking to Windsor for a new home.

Prince Andrew's (62) influence on the monarch could become a problem, insiders say.

William and Kate: Move to Windsor to keep Prince Andrew in check

Since the corona pandemic, Queen Elizabeth II (95) has stayed exclusively at Windsor Castle and has turned her back on Buckingham Palace.

Prince William has wanted to support his grandmother since she increasingly withdrew from royal day-to-day business due to health problems.

As early as August of last year, the Cambridges therefore looked around for a new home* in Windsor and the surrounding area.

According to The Sun, the young family is currently considering private homes in the town of Windsor, having ruled out royal estates such as Prince Andrew's Royal Lodge and Fort Belvedere, the former home of King Edward VIII (77, † 1972).

Frogmore Cottage, also nearby in the grounds of Windsor Castle, is currently let to Princess Eugenie, 32, with Prince Harry, 37, remaining the main tenant.

That leaves the luxury property Adelaide Cottage, which is also currently occupied.

Prince Andrew's lease is 75 years, he should not give up his closeness to his mother, who has always supported him despite the Jeffrey Epstein * (66, † 2019) abuse scandal.

And that's where the dog is buried.

The influence of the monarch's third child is great due to the physical proximity.

When the press hunted Andrew, he apparently took refuge in the castle for many nights*.

Prince Charles (73), Prince William and Kate Middleton see this development with horror.

It was not for nothing that Andrew was stripped of his military titles and offices.

They fear the Queen may carelessly rehabilitate Prince Andrew for good-hearted motives.

Instead of banishing him to the back rows at the memorial service for Prince Philip (99, † 2021), she let Andrew lead her to her place* instead of the Dean of Westminster.

Queen Elizabeth prevailed and brought Prince Andrew to accompany her at Prince Philip's memorial service.

The current and future heir to the throne were "shocked and dismayed" according to "Mirror".

The task now is to prevent Andrew from using the Queen as a stepping stone back into public life, so the move plans should be implemented as soon as possible.

Prince George (8) is said to be already enrolled at Ambrook School in Ascot (15 minutes' drive from Windsor).

Parents of his new classmates have now told The Sun that the young future heir to the throne should start there soon.
