Summary
William and Kate reached Balmoral Castle with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis for the royal family’s annual summer stay in Scotland.
Their arrival came one day after Harry and Meghan said they will establish a private UK residence after six years away, while keeping homes in Montecito and Portugal.
Archie and Lilibet are expected to start school in Britain in September, though the family’s new home and the children’s school are being kept confidential.
Balmoral was already hosting royal gatherings this week: King Charles received a formal military welcome on Tuesday, and other family members including Zara and Mike Tindall were on the estate.
The 50,000-acre Aberdeenshire retreat has been the monarchy’s summer base since 1852 and remains a symbolic family hub under Charles.
