Prince William and Kate Middleton are to move into Princess Diana‘s old home.
The British royals who tied the knot at Westminster Abbey on April 29 will embark upon married life in a “modest apartment” in London’s Kensington Palace, where William and his younger brother Prince Harry once lived with their late mother.

“They are really looking forward to moving in soon and having a base in the capital. Kate and William love the peace and quiet of Anglesey but they can’t just stay holed up there for the next two years,” a source said.

“After looking at a few apartments the couple decided this is the one they feel most comfortable in,” the source added.
“Kate has enjoyed picking things out to decorate it and make it their home.”
