Frogmore Cottage STILL lies empty more than a year after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were booted out following release of duke’s bombshell memoir Spare

Frogmore House is as yet lying void over a year after the Duke and Duchess of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍 were constrained out, as Sovereign Andrew will not move into the home.

Sovereign Harry was approached to eliminate his leftover belongings from the property only weeks after he distributed his hazardous diary Spare a year ago.

The Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍es had incited rage by burning through £2.4 million of citizens’ cash redesigning it, yet they took care of the actual costs following the clamor.The Duke of York was offered the choice to move into the cabin, rather than dwelling in the £30 million Regal Hotel while he has no clear type of revenue, yet he declined.

Sovereign Andrew had to move away from regal obligations in the midst of the outrage over his kinship with sentenced pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. The Ruler has for quite some time been attempting to convince him to leave his 30-room Windsor house for Frogmore Cabin.

But yesterday a Buckingham Palace spokesman confirmed that Frogmore is still empty as they detailed the annual Sovereign Grant report, which sets out how the monarchy is funded by taxpayers.

‘I think at this point I wouldn’t speculate on who would be the future occupant of Frogmore Cottage,’ they said.

Meghan, 42, was sporting a pair of £820 Chanel lambskin ballerina flats along with Princess Diana’s £17,800 Cartier Tank Française gold watch and a £5,800 Cartier Love yellow gold bracelet.

The revelation that her old home remains empty raises questions over what the King plans to do with it, as renting it out would lessen the burden on taxpayers.

The King reportedly threatened to cut his brother’s budget over his refusal to move into Frogmore with his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson.

Prince Andrew took over Royal Lodge from his grandmother, the Queen Mother, and there are still around 50 years left on the lease.

A source told The Times earlier this year: ‘If [Prince Andrew] doesn’t agree to move to a property better suited to his needs, then the King may have to reconsider the levels of support he is willing to provide.’

The King currently funds the Duke of York’s £3 million security bill, and pays for his housekeepers and gardeners.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan have reportedly expressed an interest in trying to rent out Apartments 1 and 7 at Kensington Palace during visits to the UK.

A Buckingham Palace spokesman said: ‘There are some locations where it is possible to allocate a property to a tenant who is not part of the royal household because the security arrangement will allow that.

‘Within the grounds of Kensington Palace that is much more difficult so it is probably unlikely to be external.’

The Mail understands the Duke and Duchess of Sus𝓈ℯ𝓍 will not be moving in.
