Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are proud owners of a new house,thanks to Queen Elizabeth.
She gifted the Duke and Duchess Of Sussex a cottage. And not just any old cottage – York Cottage.
York Cottage is a royal stately home in the grounds of Sandringham Estate, where the Queen’s beloved Norfolk home Sandringham House is situated,Metro reports.
Harry and Meghan already live in royal household Nottingham Cottage in the grounds of Kensington Palace but, this will provide the newlywed couple with much-needed sanctuary from being in the world’s lens and will mean they can escape London for some time alone.
York Cottage used to be known as the Bachelor’s Cottage. It was gifted by the future King Edward VII, then the Prince of Wales, to his son Prince George, the Duke of York (later King George V) in 1893. The Duke Of York lived there with Princess Mary after their marriage.
