British King Charles III and Queen Camilla will not move into this London residence once the extensive renovation of Buckingham Palace is complete. According to the latest royal accounts, they will remain living at Clarence House, while Buckingham Palace, after its restoration, is to serve mainly for ceremonial and official events. hnonline.sk ↗
The decision marks a change in tradition, as the palace has been the main London residence of British monarchs for almost 200 years. The palace's renovation is expected to cost 369 million pounds and is due to be completed next year. According to the published information, the royal couple are set to prioritize continuing their life at Clarence House, which Charles III already used before ascending to the throne. NOS ↗
At the same time, the royal household also published new data on the monarch's personal taxes. Charles III announced that he paid 12.9 million pounds in taxes for the financial year 2024 to 2025. Since ascending to the throne in September 2022, he has paid more than 30 million pounds according to the disclosed figures, an unprecedented step toward greater transparency in the modern history of the British monarchy.

The disclosure of the tax data, as well as the decision not to use Buckingham Palace as a permanent residence, suggest the monarchy's continuing effort to adjust how the royal household operates. The palace is to remain the center of the monarchy's official activities, and the public should have broader access to it. BBC News ↗
