The recent decision of the duke and duchess of Sussex to live outside England sure did its fair share of rounds in world news. 

It is said that his decision to step down as a senior member of the royal family comes with a heavier price than giving up his royal title and his access to state funding. It is said that his choices have caused quite a rift between him and his family. This comes as no surprise as his decision was pretty damn bold, something no one would think to do in a million years.

THE BUCKHINGHAM PALACE

While Winsor castle was his official residence since his marriage to Meghan Markel in 2018, the Buckingham palace plays a huge part in the life of price Harry.

The phrase ‘’live like a king‘’ is no stranger to anybody .It is often uttered when one needs to describe lavish dwellings and an over the top life style, quite similar to the lives the royals live. The actual net worth of the property and its grounds cannot be determined as they are a part of a trust that is well under wraps. But many have done quite a lot of digging and the home to queen Elizabeth II is estimated at £1.55 billion by some while others estimate it at a staggering £2.9 billion. Nevertheless one thing is for sure, it is the most apt example for living ‘’big’’.

The official residence of the British monarchy since 1873 comprises of 775 rooms, 78 bathrooms, 92 offices and 19 staterooms with the palace covering an area of 828, 000 square feet followed by the gardens that are 40 acres of land. The last structural addition to the property is the famed balcony in the east front to which the royals usually gather to wave to the crowds.

Yes Mr. Ambani seems to have thought of just about everything!

Six of Antilia’s 27 floors are exclusive to a fleet of cars complete with a service station that is dedicated to the premium collection of wheels the family owns. A staff of 600 religiously attends to the upkeep of the property that is complete with three helipads, a temple, a 50-seat movie theatre, a health spa, a salon, a ballroom, a yoga studio and even an ice-cream room.
