It was gifted to them by the late Queen Elizabeth after they married in 2018.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The payment \u201cfully covered the necessary renovation costs of Frogmore Cottage\u201d, which remains \u201cthe UK residence of the duke and his family\u201d, Harry\u2019s spokesperson said in 2020.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The couple last spent time at the cottage in 2022, when they came to the UK to attend the late Queen\u2019s platinum jubilee celebrations.
