Queen Elizabeth might give Prince Harry and Meghan Markle one of her most valuable properties in the future. A royal author revealed this week that when she dies, the Queen might give the Duke and Duchess of Sussex another home in addition to their current residence at Windsor Castle, the newly renovated Frogmore Cottage.

According to royal author Phil Dampier, Prince Harry and Meghan could be in line to inherit a classy property from Queen Elizabeth when the Queen passes away. Since Queen Elizabeth usually spends her summers at Balmoral Castle, she might hand the property down to Prince Charles when she dies. And since Prince William and Kate Middleton loves venturing to Anmer Hall in Norfolk, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge might be the future owners of the property.

As for Prince Harry and Meghan, Dampier said that the Queen will definitely give the couple another property on top of Frogmore Cottage — the Costwolds. “It’s a difficult one as Frogmore is semi-rural in the sense that it’s not out in the sticks,” he said.

“I think the obvious place for them would be the Costwolds, where they had a place before. That’s where Meghan’s friends are so I’m sure she’d rather be that way than in Norfolk,” he added.

After Prince Harry and Meghan got married, they temporarily rented a property at Costwolds before moving to Buckingham Palace. “Long term, when the Queen dies, they are going to have a lot of properties,” Dampier said.

“Charles will have access to Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, Balmoral. He’s not going to need High Grove, so the obvious thing would be for High Grove to be a home for William or Harry,” he added.

Dampier also explained that since Prince Harry and Meghan had already spent almost 3 million of taxpayer’s cash on Frogmore, the couple will certainly not be in a rush to acquire a holiday home. Hence, Queen Elizabeth might think it best to give her Costwolds property to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex as a gift.

The royal family owns large pieces of land and places of residence throughout the United Kingdom. When Queen Elizabeth dies, these assets will be split among her immediate family members, including Prince Charles and her other children, Prince William and Prince Harry and their wives, and her other grandchildren.
