King Charles And Queen Camilla Will NOT Live In Buckingham Palace After £369m Refurbishment

King Charles and Queen Camilla will NOT live in Buckingham Palace after £369m refurbishment King Charles III and Queen Camilla will not move into Buckingham Palace even after its £369 million renovation is completed next year, officials have confirmed. Instead, the royal couple will continue living at Clarence House, their long-time London residence.

• Increase public access to Buckingham Palace
• Turn the palace more into a ceremonial and official “Monarchy HQ” rather than a private home
• Allow more of the historic building to be used for tours, events, and public visits
• It will remain the main workplace of the monarchy
• Used for state events, receptions, and official duties
• The King and Queen will still have private rooms available for occasional use
• But it will no longer serve as their full-time residence
• King Charles and Queen Camilla will continue to reside at Clarence House
• This marks a break from nearly 200 years of tradition, where monarchs typically lived at Buckingham Palace

The move is part of a wider plan to modernize royal operations and open up Buckingham Palace more to the public, rather than using it as a private royal home.
