THIS CHANGE MADE THEM HAPPY
It is stated that Kate and William are happy because Adelaide Cottage, which is located in a more rural area than Kensington Palace, where they currently live, provides a larger playground for their children and is more intertwined with nature.
It was claimed that they would not be too much burden to the public.
It is also said that Adelaide Cottage, which underwent a major repair in 2015, will not cause any additional expenses for its new residents, the Cambridge family. It is also stated that Kate and William will move into this modest four-bedroom house, contributing to reducing the royal family’s expenses. A source told The Sun that the couple also wanted to move into this less ostentatious property, which does not require renovations or extra security measures, so as not to burden taxpayers.

As a matter of fact, Adelaide Cottage is a modest property in a quiet environment, but there are also memories in the history of the royal family that some may not want to remember, hidden within the walls of this residence.
THE PROPERTY HAS ITS HISTORY
Adelaide Cottage, where William and Kate are moving with their three children this summer, has a tumultuous history. Located right in the heart of 655 acres of Windsor estate, this property is extremely close to Windsor Castle, where Queen Elizabeth II also lived for a while. This will keep William and his grandmother, the Queen, close to each other.
IT WAS THE QUEEN’S FAVORITE HOUSE
Adelaide Cottage was built in 1831. This place was built for Adelaide, the wife of King William IV of the time, and was named after her. Adelaide Cottage, where Kate and William would live, was also Queen Victoria’s favorite home. The Queen often went here for breakfast.

Adelaide Cottage was later used for the royal family as well as their families. But in fact, Adelaide Cottage also has a place in one of the biggest scandals in the history of the British royal family. This is the first thing that comes to mind when the name is mentioned.
HE WAS ONE OF THE FAVORITE OFFICERS OF THE ROYAL AIR FORCE
Peter Townsend, who served as a colonel in the Royal Air Force in the 1950s, lived in Adelaide Cottage. Townsend is remembered as one of the property’s most famous residents. As for the reason…
IN THE CONDITIONS OF THAT PERIOD, THIS LOVE CREATED SCANDAL
A noted pilot, both physically and professionally, Colonel Peter Townsend was the lover of Margaret, the sister of Elizabeth, who was then a princess. The reason why Princess Margaret’s love caused so much scandal was that Townsend was divorced. Moreover, Townsend was 16 years older than Margaret. Although Townsend was divorced, the revelation of his affair with Princess Margaret created a scandal. Because at that time, a member of the British royal family could not marry or even have a romantic relationship with someone whose ex-wife was alive, even if they were divorced. This situation was not allowed. That’s why Kate and William’s new home brings to mind the scandalous love affair of Margaret and Townsend at the time.

The romantic relationship between Princess Margaret and Peter Townsend was revealed thanks to careful journalists who watched the Queen’s coronation in 1953. Noticing that Margaret had picked up a piece of feather from Townsend’s jacket, the journalists rushed over the incident, and this relationship was exposed.
TOWNSEND SENT TO BRUSSELS
What follows is literally “a broken love story”. Peter Townsend and Princess Margaret decided to get married, but this did not happen. Things got even more difficult for Margaret and Peter, whose relationship was revealed. Peter Townsend was sent by the government to the British Embassy in Brussels as an air attaché. On October 31, 1955, Princess Margaret issued a statement that her relationship with Townsend was over.
BBC STOPPED BROADCAST
Margaret included the following lines in her statement: “I was aware that, subject to my renunciation of my inheritance, it would be possible to conclude a formal marriage contract. However, taking into account the teachings of the church that Christian marriage cannot be dissolved, and being aware of my duty to the Commonwealth, I decided to put these considerations before others. I gave.” By the way, let us remind you that the BBC cut the broadcast of the radio program to announce this statement that day.
In 1959, aged 45, Townsend married 20-year-old Marie-Luce Jamagne, a Belgian national whom he had met the previous year. They had two daughters and a son. Their younger daughter, Isabelle Townsend, became a Ralph Lauren model in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
DIED IN 2002
Princess Margaret, who left her name in history with this love story, married Anthony Armstrong Jones in 1960. From this marriage, which lasted until 1978, they had two children, Sarah and David. Princess Margaret died on February 9, 2002.
