The family will leave their Adelaide Cottage home, which they moved into three years ago.
“Moving gives them an opportunity for a fresh start and a new chapter; an opportunity to leave some of the more unhappy memories behind,” a source told The Sun.
The new home boasts eight bedrooms, a ballroom and a tennis court, according to Town & Country, and is reportedly larger than Adelaid Cottage.
The home was built in the 1770s and was bought by the Crown Estate in 1829. In 2001, the property underwent a $2 million renovation.
