King Charles is serious.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are losing their UK residence Frogmore Cottage to scandal Prince Andrew of all people.
Windsor – Although the lease for Frogmore Cottage expired on March 31, 2022, Prince Harry (38) and Meghan Markle (41) re-signed it despite their new home in California.
For the platinum throne jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II (96, † 2022), the renegade royals moved into quarters there before the Duke of Sussex published his controversial memoirs for the New Year, in which attacks on the Royal Family and especially on his brother Prince William (40) just swarmed.
Harry and Meghan must hand over the keys to their estate to Prince Andrew
Whether the book of memories influenced his decision remains uncertain, but apparently, according to
The Sun
, King Charles III.
Prince Harry and Meghan evicted from Frogmore Cottage and offered it to his brother Prince Andrew.
A source said: "This will certainly mark the end of Harry and Meghan's time in the UK." Charles reportedly informed Prince Harry and Meghan of the move when Harry's book, Spare, came out.

Strictly speaking, King Charles kills two birds with one stone: Prince Harry is put in his place by evicting Frogmore after his attacks.
And: The disgraced Duke of York (63), who apparently can no longer pay the rent for his long-standing property Royal Lodge himself, gets a place to stay in the smaller Frogmore Cottage with at least five bedrooms that he can lift.
Both Prince Andrew and the Sussexes are rebelling against the will of the king, but neither can they prevent the evictions.
That's how long Meghan and Harry lived at Frogmore Cottage
Harry and Meghan were given the small five-bedroom property from the Queen as a wedding gift in 2018 from Harry's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
They commissioned a £2.4million (€2.7m) renovation before moving in the following April.
The couple wanted "her family to always have a place to call home in the UK".
But they only spent six months in their new home before saying goodbye to London and royal duties in 2020 to live in the United States.
Harry later repaid the cost of the renovation to the taxpayer by leasing Frogmore Cottage for "several years".
In the fall of 2020, they handed over the keys to Princess Eugenie, 32, and husband Jack Brooksbank, 36, who have since moved to Portugal.
The Megxit is now followed by the Frogxit, as “The Sun” calls the sacking
While Andrew is struggling to accept the offer, Harry and Meghan are said to have already asked for items like an ornate ottoman bench and chaise longue to be shipped to California.
If that's true, they weren't offered an alternative residence owned by the Windsors either.
Kingdom residency entails some birthrights of the king's second born, which remain in place whether Harry is an active royal or not.

If he keeps the British address, he is theoretically entitled to represent his father King Charles in his position of succession to the throne, provided that he does not push through a change in the law in Parliament.
He is fifth in line to the British throne by birthright, after his older brother Prince William and their children Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4, as a grandson of the late Queen Elizabeth II .of the House of Windsor.
