The King evicts Harry and his wife from Frogmore!

It is indeed a vile thing to do. Offer Harry and Meghan a ‘large enough’ income to keep them quiet. Apart from the simple fact that I think it unlikely that they’d want to be bought off because they enjoy digging the dirt on the royal family far too much I also think that ‘financially independent’ people in middle age would want to work make their own money and not rely on Daddy.

Harry has inherited a large amount of money from his mother's estate, as has William.
As far as I am aware the rest of the immediate royal family do not have a great deal of personal money; they have their income and living expenses from the royal estate (Duchy of Lancaster?) and a home which is leased but which they do not own, in return for royal duties.
Harry has chosen to live abroad and has chosen not to comply with the royal duties that were asked of him, therefore he has no claim to a royal residence in Britain as of right.
If he wishes for a home in Britain he has sufficient money to purchase or rent one, and pay for his own security.
That is my understanding anyway.

Hush money would be very underhanded. I doubt KC would even consider it and H and M seem to be doing fine without money from RF.

I also think that ‘financially independent’ people in middle age would want to work make their own money and not rely on Daddy.
Isn't that how the RF works? Didn't one old man just inherit from his mother?

He inherited a job ,

Do Charles, Anne, Andrew and Edward inherit from Queen Elizabeth and do they pay inheritance tax or how does it work for the Royals.

The Queen's wealth was estimated at between £400 mill and £350 mill which I suppose isn't much.
We don't really know because Royal wills are kept locked for 90 years. They don't however pay inheritance tax.

I don't like what H&M have, but didn't Harry personally pay the renovation bill for Frogmore? What is happening to the big ostentatious house Andrew was living in? didn't he and Fergie have it built after they got married on land gifted to them by the Queen.

I thought I read that Michael and Zeta Douglas were living in St James Palace.

That must be a blow for HM.

A one-bedroom flat in St James's Palace is currently on the rental market for just under £4,000 a month

Anyone can rent there if they have the money and presumably if they pass all the security criteria.

I've applied. 👸
We need a little London bolthole.

Keep me in mind if you need cleaner Callistemon🧹😄

H and M repaid the renovation costs after they left the country.
Andrew sold the house he had built land the Queen gave him. The buyer demolished it and built another house.

I'll help as well!

Allegedly H & M did not pay back the money on Frogwell. In the end Charles paid it in order to save public embarrassment. Oh dear, all this reliance on Daddy!! The late Q.M left W & H a substantial sum which they inherit when they turn 40, so Harry has another inheritance waiting in The wings! Allegedly the RF do pay inheritance tax, all that is except the Monarch.
As for Charles the cruel!! Charles the weak was doing the rounds but all I've read to day is Charles the strong for at last getting a grip on these two appalling people, their cruel actions, (the late Queen in particular) and accusations, personal and often false. Unbelievably horrid.

Is it a form of revenge by Charles evicting H and M and giving PA their house? Or is it just economics? PA doesn't need a 31 bedroomed house that needs a lot of money spent on it and H and M now live in the USA.

Shame on H and M if they left Charles to repay their expenditure and good for Charles if he did quietly pick up the bill.
It’s correct that inheritance tax isn’t paid on the personal estate of the monarch. The Queen reached an agreement with the Treasury about which taxes the monarch would pay and Charles said he would honour it. Many things owned by the monarch are not their personal property and automatically pass to the next monarch on death and are exempt from inheritance tax such as Crown Estate property. Other members of the RF are subject to inheritance tax in the usual way.

Please can someone post a link to the information that Charles paid the Frogmore bill. He gave them money but they paid the bill.

Simple way to stop it then. Give them a large enough income with the proviso that they keep quiet. The RF could easily afford to do it if they wanted to.

Very naive to think that anybody can be trusted not to leak information under the claim that it’s in the public interest!
Certainly not that pair.

Harry and his wife are not exactly homeless and living under a hedge.

That's so funny.

So Charles gave them the money but they paid the bill.

OK

Heavens, buying off H & M could easily lead to future blackmail and with these two probably would! Harry is already asking for a public apology for Meghan from HM and P.W else they/he won't attend the Coronation!! Well, no apology, problem solved! Perhaps H can't quite understand that a good proportion of the the public don't want them to come, they are that unpopular!

"Very naive to think that anybody can be trusted not to leak information under the claim that it’s in the public interest!

Oh the irony in this statement!

So I was looking at this.

It is wildly reported that Harry & Meghan paid back the reno costs. Anyone should be able to look at the Sovereign Grant report to see if the money was paid back. Did Charles pay it for them? Maybe. But that is literally no ones business and is a rumor at best.

The original lease on Frogmore was paid through March 2023, based on reports. But I am also seeing that they renewed the lease in May 2022, which I can only see in tabloids.

It appears that, the lease is up in March 2023 and Charles has decided not to renew it. He did not evict anyone, that would take a legal battle. More likely, he has told them that he will not renew the lease and to vacate. But that wouldn't sell as many papers would it?

It amazes me that the British peoples still search high a low for any news they can use to denigrate this couple. They have not lived in the UK for 3 years now, do not take taxpayer money, make their own living live their own lives. They have barely even been seen since Harry's interview on January 11th, once in the background of a photo at a personal event and last night going to dinner.

But still, people look to dig up dirt and then complain that they never go away.

Anyone has the power to make them go away, by refusing to purchase or support the papers that print the crap you all need to read so much and closing down the internet when you see it.

Also, Charles doesn't need to pay them off. They do not need the money. Harry made $20 million for his book. He has his mom's inheritance. Meghan had a few million in her own right before marriage. They have millions from Spotify and Netflix.

This is a middle aged couple living their lives, raising kids, working and paying a mortgage. They do not need to be "saved" or paid off by the royal family.

Before visiting an apology is required by Harry from Charles, this will not be given, so presumably they won’t be coming back to uk. If they do they will have to do what others do, but we don’t have millions off Netflix or write a book savaging our families. Money is no problem for them, so one need be concerned, scrounges always manage.

Or by reframing from posting views for or against on GN maybe.

I don't think we need to worry about H & M running out of funds so we don't need to worry about them, we don't need to pay them any attention, we can safely ignore them.

I cancelled Netflix when they asked why I said H&M
