Seven fun facts to know about Kensington Palace, the home of Prince William and Kate Middleton as well as their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis...
February 26, 2020 - 14:51 GMT Sharnaz Shahid Kensington Palace has been a royal home for centuries, and now houses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge - as well as their children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. The young family reside in Apartment 1A, which the Queen's sister, the late Princess Margaret lived in. Other members of the royal family who live at Kensington Palace include Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank, who are based at Ivy Cottage.
It was home to Princess Diana Diana, Princess of Wales called Kensington Palace her home from her wedding day in 1981 until her untimely death in 1997, and during that time she developed an inimitable connection to the royal residence. Apartment 8 was where Princes William and Harry both spent much of their childhood, and so great was Diana's love of the residence that she decided to stay there following her divorce from Prince Charles in 1996.
The royal residence also doubles up as a wedding venue - and the good news is that you don't need to be royal to marry there. There are several spots around the palace and its grounds that are available to book for weddings, including the King's Gallery and King's Drawing Room within the palace, or the beautiful Sunken Garden, where Prince Harry and Meghan posed for photos after announcing their engagement in November 2017.
