@dailymailroyals: While it was already known that William wanted to move so he could be closer to his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II after the death of her husband Prince Philip, Robert Jobson reveals that the decision was very much supported by Kate. According to Jobson in Catherine, the Princess of Wales: The Biography, an aide said: '[Prince William] knew his time with his grandmother was precious and he is delighted they, as a couple, made that decision.' Mr Jobson added: 'Catherine understood that for William, as a future king, it was important for him to be geographically closer to the late Queen in her final months, when he was required to support both her and his father. 'It made a real difference. They were in regular contact, seeing each other in person and speaking on the phone several times a week, bringing them even closer.' Prince William shared a close bond with his grandmother and after her beloved husband passed away the Queen struggled. But she was boosted by regular visits and phone calls from William. The move to Adelaide Cottage, located within the Crown Estate's private 655-acre Windsor Great Park, meant the family were then only a 30-minute walk or ten-minute drive from the late Queen at Windsor Castle. #windsor #queenelizabeth #katemiddleton #princewilliam #royalfamily #news #greif
