No taxpayer money was involved.However, the homes are situated in occupied royal palaces, which are maintained by public funding via the Sovereign Grant, which was effectively reimbursed by the monarch on their behalf.The sisters had not attended a family gathering since before February 2026, when their father was taken into custody on suspicion of misconduct in a public office.However, the sisters remain a close part of the family and hold a particularly close bond with their cousin Zara.

He attended alongside the Princess of Wales, who arrived at Gloucestershire's All Saints Church in a Roland Mouret £750 dress and Jane Taylor hat.The future Queen stepped out for the historic event with Prince William and was met with the sound of cheers from crowds of well-wishers who had gathered to catch a glimpse of the royal guests.
