King Charles III and Queen Camilla have announced that they will not reside at Buckingham Palace following its extensive refurbishment, which is expected to conclude in 2027. This decision marks the end of a nearly 200-year tradition of the palace serving as the primary residence for British monarchs. The refurbishment of Buckingham Palace, which has a budget of approximately £369 million, is aimed at modernizing the historic site while maintaining its role as a center for official events.

Royal officials confirmed that the King and Queen will continue to live at Clarence House in London, a decision that suggests an intention to enhance public access to Buckingham Palace, which will remain active for state functions and ceremonial purposes. Despite the significant renovations, the couple's choice to stay at Clarence House has been characterized as a shift in how the monarchy engages with the public and manages the royal estate moving forward.
