Prince William & Kate Middleton’s Castle Estate Burglarized, 2 Vehicles Stolen
The royal estate where Prince William and Kate Middleton reside with their children faced a burglary back in October … local police confirm.
Windsor Castle, one of many estates owned by King Charles III, and where William, Kate and their kids have their primary residence, was burglarized last month, with 2 suspects breaking onto the grounds and stealing 2 vehicles.
Thames Valley Police shared with NBC News Monday that a reported burglary occurred “at a property on Crown Estate land” on Sunday, October 13 … the suspects made their way onto the royal land at 11:45 PM local time.
Police say the burglars made their way onto the castle grounds through a farm building … and took off with “a black Izuzu pickup and a red quad bike.” The offenders then reportedly ventured to a nearby town — but remain at large.
According to authorities, no arrests have been made in the burglary … the investigation is ongoing.
While William and Kate don’t live directly in Windsor Castle — which happens to be the largest occupied castle in the world — the Prince and Princess of Wales live in Adelaide Cottage, which sits only a few miles from where the break-in occurred.
King Charles III and Queen Camilla own Windsor Castle, but they primarily reside at Clarence House … which is located not far from the famed Buckingham Palace in London — the estate that serves as the monarch’s official residence.
Windsor Castle, about 22 miles west of London, has faced other security breaches in years past, including a Christmas Day incident in 2021 … when a man climbed a fence with a crossbow with the hope of killing Queen Elizabeth II.
The monarch was in-residence at the time, making the ordeal all the more terrifying.
The culprit caught and received a 9-year prison sentence for treason, as well as possession of an offensive weapon and making threats to kill.
