That dramatic scenario—Prince Harry, Meghan, and their daughter moving into a lavish 10‑bedroom mansion in England gifted by Princess Anne, sparking a feud with William—is entirely fictional. No reliable sources report any such event. Here’s what the factual record shows:
Verified Facts
1. Frogmore Cottage (Not a Mansion Gifted by Anne)
- Frogmore Cottage, located in Windsor, was a wedding gift from the late Queen Elizabeth II—not Princess Anne—from which Harry and Meghan stepped back as working royals and eventually vacated.
- Multiple reports (including from The Telegraph, Hindustan Times, and InStyle) draw from Omid Scobie’s book Endgame, suggesting that Princess Anne played a key role in advising King Charles to revoke their use of Frogmore Cottage.
2. Harry and Meghan’s Current Status in the UK
- As of now, Harry and Meghan live in Montecito, California. Despite speculation, they have no plans to return to the UK, citing security concerns and their established life in the U
- Reports of them “moving back” have surfaced but are contradicted by other confirmed sources stating they will remain in the U.S.
3. Royal Tensions Remain Real
- While there’s no news of a new property gift or showdown, real tensions remain—Harry and Meghan were reportedly evicted from Frogmore after the release of Spare, and Princess Anne is implicated in that decision.
- Harry has also publicly stated that he sees no scenario in which Meghan and their children live back in the UK, further reinforcing their separation from royal domestic life.
Summary Comparison
Bottom Line
There’s no foundation for the claim that Princess Anne gifted Harry and Meghan a 10‑bedroom mansion in England, or that William reacted with a conflict over it. What is documented is:
- Frogmore Cottage was revoked as a residence following their departure from royal duties, with Anne reportedly influential in that decision.
- Harry and Meghan have no current intention to relocate to the UK, and the couple’s relationship with the royal family remains strained but bureaucratic, rather than dramatic real estate warfare.
