King Charles and Queen Camilla will not live in Buckingham Palace after renovations | BBC News

King Charles and Queen Camilla will not live at Buckingham Palace when £369m of refurbishments are completed next year, the latest royal accounts have revealed. The palace, which has served as the official London residence of the UK sovereign since 1837, will continue to be the administrative headquarters of the monarchy but the King has decided that nearby Clarence House will remain his official home. The decision has partly been taken to allow greater public access to the landmark, officials said. A 10-year refurbishment of Buckingham Palace - funded through a temporary increase in the Sovereign Grant, which pays for the official duties of the royals - is due to be completed in March.
