Prince Charles is not moving to Buckingham Palace?
Buckingham Palace has been a residence for the Queens and King of England for a very long time now, but Prince Charles has no intentions moving there once he becomes King of England. One of the reasons is that Buckingham Palace is currently under renovations, and the upgrade of the headquarters will start somewhere in 2024. Another reason is that Prince Charles never wanted to live there. “I know he is no fan of ‘the big house,’ as he called the palace,” an insider close to the royal family shared with Hello! Magazine. “He doesn’t see it as a viable future home or a house that’s fit for purpose in the modern world. He feels its upkeep, both from a cost and environmental perspective, is not sustainable.”

Memorial
In honor of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, he plans, ones she dies, to create a memorial exhibit, so that the public can see everything the Queen has done in her long, historic reign.
Bussines
