After barely having time to sort her own moving boxes, Princess Eugenie has reportedly ditched the place leading royal watchers to ask what in the world is wrong with the prosaically named little abode?
Is it haunted? Does it have a rat or termite problem? Maybe there is nothing wrong with the place except that Eugenie hated it in the same way that Meghan Thee Duchess of Sussex did?
Meghan and Harry demanded the residence be renovated before moving in as newlyweds. But they left it behind in March when they fled and left the taxpayer holding the bill. They are now in California, presumably in a place that better meets their extravagant needs.
But despite living in a mansion in Santa Barbara the thirsty couple did not want to let go of Frogmore. Instead, they wanted to be landlords because it was discovered in November that Harry told his expectant cousin, Princess Eugenie, to move on in!
And move on in she and her husband Jack Brooksbank did about six weeks ago. At the time Buckingham Palace refused to comment but some sources claimed that the landlords, aka Meghan and Harry were, “delighted to be able to open up their home to Princess Eugenie and Jack as they start their own family.”
Except that Eugenie up and fled the cottage after a matter of weeks. She and Jack have allegedly moved back to their former home, Ivy Cottage, on the Kensington Palace estate. What gives?
Royal watchers were stunned as the larger Frogmore Cottage had appeared perfect since it was outfitted for newborn Archie, is close to Eugenie’s parents Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, and her grandparents, the Queen and Prince Philip.
But obviously something about the place turned off the second pair of occupants as Eugenie rejected it just like Meghan did. One insider told royal watcher Katie Nicholl that Meghan hated Frogmore: “She was convinced there was a conspiracy against her and so she basically put herself in self-isolation when they moved to Frogmore. I think she felt like an outsider from the start. This wasn’t the life she was used to and she wanted out.”
Wow, so Meghan took her paranoid conspiracy theories out on a poor little cottage? Unbelievable. Maybe Frogmore should take a page from Meghan’s playbook and sue for slander?
