Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have moved to Frogmore Estate in Windsor ahead of royal baby’s birth

PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle have made the big move to Windsor ahead of the arrival of their first child.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had been living in Nottingham Cottage at Kensington Palace which is also the home to Kate Middleton and Prince Harry.

But now pregnant Meghan and Harry have now relocated to their new home of Frogmore Cottage, reports.

The royal couple wanted to have time to settle in ahead of the birth of baby Sussex who is expected to arrive later this month.

Fabulous Digital has contacted Kensington Palace for a comment.

The parents-to-be had faced delays on their move while building works took place during the major redevelopment of the property.

A royal source said: “It’s been all hands to the pump. The builders have worked all week whatever the weather. But they keep making changes, particularly on the layout.

“The word is they’ve been quite demanding, which is understandable as what homeowner doesn’t want their house to be perfect?”

Harry, 34, and Meghan, 37, have knocked down many of the interior walls to create five huge bedrooms and en-suite bathrooms.

They have views over Windsor Great Park and the gardens of Frogmore House, where they held their wedding party last year.

A huge kitchen diner has been created.

The couple have also ordered alcove bookcases to go next to new fireplaces and vanity units.

Last week builders on cranes put in chimney liners for log burners.

The source said: “Given the scale of the project, a three or four-week delay isn’t too bad. The couple are pleased with how it’s all going.”

The couple’s new home is nestled in the grounds of Windsor Castle's Home Park in Berkshire where they said their I dos less than a year ago.

Former actress Meghan is believed to be entering the final weeks of her pregnancy and The Sun on Sunday revealed today that she has chosen to shun giving birth in the Lindo Wing.

The wing is where both Diana and Kate Middleton gave birth and has been used by the Royal Family for the past 40 years.

The pair were due to be given their keys to the renovated cottage this month, but works to the properties layout have taken longer than expected.

Security has been stepped up ahead of their arrival, with armed cops on duty in sentry boxes.

The Windsor move will leave Harry and Meghan without a London base, as they are giving up their home at Kensington Palace.

But aides say they could be given an apartment at Buckingham Palace after its £369million renovation.

It comes just a few days after Harry and Meghan’s official Instagram was launched, breaking them away from the Kensington Palace account they had shared with Kate and William.
