THE King is carrying out a major shake-up of the monarchy which ultimately means that more members of the royal family will have to fund and fend for themselves, the Evening Standard understands.
The eviction of Prince Harry and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage in Windsor will be “just the start” of his plans to slim it down and modernise, according to sources. Subsidised rents for royals — even for some working royals — will be eradicated over time, with the King expecting them to finance their own homes and “cut their cloth” over the next five years, it is understood.
The news came as the King’s visit to France was delayed after extensive rioting overnight. Senior figures have told the Standard that after the period of transition following the coronation, the King, assisted by Queen Camilla, will move to tackle inefficiencies in what is being viewed as a largely overstaffed and outdated system.
Vice-Admiral Sir Tony Johnstone-Burt, Master of the Household, and the Keeper of the Privy Purse Sir Michael Stevens, responsible for finance, will execute the shake-up of what is described as a “top-heavy royal household.” Camilla has been overseeing the fine detail of the King’s plan to ensure that after the coronation the royal household will be run the “Clarence House way”.
