Harry set to split from big brother Wills as he and Meghan move away from Kensington to set up home in Windsor

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have decided they don't want to live in Kensington next to William and Kate, and will strike out on their own in Windsor

PRINCE Harry is splitting from brother William by leaving Kensington Palace.

The brothers have always been incredibly close, but Harry and Meghan are setting up their home in the grounds of Windsor Castle.

The Queen has given them Frogmore Cottage, which is having a multi-million pound refit paid for by the taxpayer.

It will provide ten bedrooms and a nursery for their baby, due in April. The couple are expected to move in next year.

A royal source said: “The initial plan was for Harry and Meghan to move out of their cottage in the grounds of Kensington Palace and into one of the main apartments.

"But there has been a bit of tension between the brothers.

“Now Harry and Meghan don’t want to live next to William and Kate and want to strike out on their own.

The cosy cottage the pair currently live in as previously home to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge before the couple moved into a 20-room apartment inside the palace.

"They need more room and hope Frogmore Cottage will be ready in time for when they have the baby.”

Frogmore Cottage needs major building work to turn it back into a luxury family home, boasting 10 bedrooms & a new nursery plus space for a gym & yoga studio.

Currently it’s been chopped up into 5 units where palace staff have been living.

News of Meghan and Harry's decision to leave Kensington Palace comes weeks after it was first reported that Harry and William would have separate courts in the future instead of using Kensington Palace as a joint office for them.

Last week it was revealed Meghan’s £3.9million wealth and Prince Harry’s £300,000-a-year trust fund could be looked into by the Inland Revenue Service.

US tax inspectors could even scrutinise the private wealth of Prince Charles and the Queen because they provide support and funding for the couple.

Meghan has to pay tax in her home country on all income “available” to her so this could include to princess jewellery, travel expenses and royal accommodation.

The Royal Family is so concerned about the issue they have even asked a US financial consultancy firm for advice.

Kensington Palace released a statement saying: "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will move to Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Estate early next year as they prepare for the arrival of their first child.

The couple have lived at Nottingham Cottage since their engagement last year.

Windsor is a very special place for Their Royal Hignesses and they are grateful that their official residence will be on the estate.

The Duke and Duchess's office will continue to be based at Kensington Palace.
