LONDON (AP) – Like many couples before them, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan settle in the suburbs before the anticipated birth of their first child.

Officials said Saturday that Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, would leave Kensington Palace in central London to travel to Frogmore Cottage, a home on Windsor Estate Estate, at the beginning of the year. next.

The couple, who is married in a chapel in Windsor Castle in May, is expecting his first child in the spring. Windsor is about 32 km west of central London.

The palace's statement stated that "Windsor is a very special place for their royal highnesses and they are grateful that their official residence is on the estate".

Harry and Meghan live at Nottingham Cottage, on the site of Kensington Palace, since the announcement of their engagement last year. They will keep their office at Kensington Palace, where Prince William and his wife Kate also reside.

Frogmore Cottage is a two story stuccoed home on the Windsor Estate. It is near Frogmore House, the grand 17th century mansion, where Meghan and Harry arranged their wedding reception in the evening for 200 friends after their wedding earlier in the day.

The cottage and house were named Frogmore because of the many frogs that resided in the swampy area near the Thames.

This move means that William and Harry will no longer live nearby, now that Harry is creating his own family. William and Kate have three children.
