This could be Buckingham Palace, St James's Palace in central London, Windsor Castle, or even Frogmore Cottage, the couple's former residence before their move to California in 2020.\n\nThe couple's primary purpose for visiting Britain is to promote the Invictus Games, scheduled for Birmingham in July 2027, situated roughly an hour from Althorp.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
