He financed renovations and  upkeep of the property but has paid no monetary rent. Instead, he is expected to hand over a peppercorn, if demanded, every year as part of his agreement.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s drawn anger from politicians with calls for a further investigation. The Sun, meanwhile, reported that Andrew has said he will leave Royal Lodge if he can live in Frogmore Cottage, the former home of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. It\u2019s also reported that he wants Adelaide Cottage for his former wife, Sarah Ferguson, who shares Royal Lodge with him. Adelaide Cottage is currently the home of the Prince and Princess of Wales who are set to move to the larger Forest Lodge on the Windsor estate later this ear.<\/p>\n<p>While it\u2019s important to report on criticism of the Monarchy, it\u2019s also important to give it full context to avoid distortion of facts. Yes, The King was heckled and yes, there was voiced support from others there.<\/p>\n<p>Charles III had drawn a strong crowd for his visit to Lichfield Cathedral where he had been shown the Table for the Nation which was created for the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II in 2012 as a symbol of unity and hope.<\/p>\n<p>It was made from 5,000-year-old Fenland Black Oak and is now used for community events. During his visit, King Charles met volunteers and community groups around the table including representatives from the city\u2019s Food Bank, the Liberty Jamboree and MusicShare.<\/p>\n<p>During his visit to Staffordshire, The King also attended the official unveiling of a new public memorial to all LGBT+ people who have served in the military.<\/p>\n<p>The monument, at the National Memorial Arboretum, is called \u2018An Opened Letter\u2019 and is designed by the Abraxas Academy artist<br \/>collective. It represents an opened letter, created from bronze, which bears words taken from testimonies of former service personnel affected by a ban which saw century, gay men, lesbians, and bisexual people barred from serving in the Armed Forces in the UK until 2000.<\/p>\n<p>King Charles appeared visibly moved as the memorial was dedicated.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"tbmarker\"\/><\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source royalcentral.co.uk \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The King has been heckled over Prince Andrew during a public engagement.
