I bet we were all impressed when King Charles announced that some rooms in his beloved Balmoral would be open to the public from this week at £100 a time (plus £50 for optional tea). What a generous gesture it seemed. But, according to one report, other family factors may have been at work.
Until today, we are told, the parts of Balmoral now being enjoyed by Joe and Josie Public were the rooms which Prince William's kids, George, Charlotte and Louis, “had the run of, each summer.” If the choice is between three lively royals hurtling through your beloved old home and sending the Ming vases flying, or queues of genteel royalists traipsing quietly in and out, well, it's no choice, is it?
