It seems this is the same story making waves today—Princess Catherine (Kate Middleton) has finally addressed ongoing rumors surrounding her family’s future housing plans, in light of Princess Charlotte and Prince William’s surprise trip to Switzerland for the Women’s EURO 2025 final in Basel, which occurred on

What’s actually going on with their living arrangements?

• Multiple reputable outlets report that Kate and William have decided they’ve outgrown their current home at Adelaide Cottage, a four-bedroom residence within the Windsor estate. As a growing family, they’re now exploring alternate options
• The leading candidate being considered is Fort Belvedere, a historic Gothic Revival mansion in Windsor Great Park. This property spans 59 acres, includes a tennis court, swimming pool, rose and kitchen gardens, stables, lakes, and staff cottages—features that reportedly appeal to the family’s lifestyle and Charlotte’s love of tennis
• Royal sources emphasize that no official move is imminent—it’s a long-term plan under consideration, guided by priorities such as privacy, space, and access to schooling as Prince George prepares to start Eton in the coming months

 Princess Catherine’s response

While Kate has not released a formal statement explicitly mentioning Fort Belvedere or any specific housing plans, that absence itself speaks volumes:

• There has been no denial issued by Kensington Palace in relation to the speculation.
• Royal reporting consistently frames the media coverage as speculation rather than confirmed plans.

So although she hasn’t “broken silence” with a direct quote confirming the move, the lack of pushback to these credible reports suggests tacit acknowledgment of what insiders have shared.

Putting it all togethe

Bottom line

Princess Catherine hasn’t made a clear public announcement about new home plans—but multiple credible sources consistently report that Fort Belvedere is being seriously considered as their next family residence. The rumors remain unconfirmed by palace spokespeople, though the silence adds weight to the speculation. No move is confirmed, but insiders say it could mark an upcoming chapter for the Waleses.
