Claim 1: “Prince William and Princess Kate's £140k investment for live-in staff at Forest Lodge”
DISPUTED
The claim states the couple invested £140k for live-in staff. However, evidence from a National Audit Office report indicates the Crown Estate invested close to £400,000 for refurbishments, and another source explicitly states that the couple will 'not have any live-in staff'.
