Members of the British royal family often 'rent' their stately homes from the Crown Estate, and Prince Edward is no different. They do this to maintain the distinction between personal and state-owned assets, and so that historic properties remain part of the national heritage while providing the royals with residences. It was confirmed in 2021 that the Edinburghs had extended their lease for another 150 years at a cost of £5 million ($6.5m).
