King Charles went 'directly against the Queen's style' and made a 'big mistake' by evicting Harry and Meghan from Frogmore Cottage, a royal expert said.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex this week confirmed that they had been asked to vacate their UK home on the Windsor estate - which was gifted to them by the late Queen Elizabeth II after they tied the knot in 2018.
According to reports, the King, 74, made the decision shortly after the publication of Prince Harry's book Spare - with sources claiming that the Duke's criticisms of his step-mother, Queen Consort Camilla, had been the "last straw".
It was reported that Frogmore Cottage will instead be offered to Prince Andrew, 63, after it was revealed the Duke of York is set to be moved from Royal Lodge in Windsor Park, where he has lived since 2003.
Royal expert and historian Dr Tessa Dunlop said many people in Britain felt "gleeful" on learning of the King's tough stance with Harry, 38, and Meghan Markle, 41.
However, Dr Dunlop believes the move has gone against the wishes of Harry's late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, who tried to keep him on board.
