ZELENSKYY ACQUIRES HIGHGROVE HOUSE, FORMER RESIDENCE OF KING CHARLES FOR
£20MILLION
Ukraine's Zelensky is the New Owner of Highgrove House, Former Home of King
Charles and Princess Diana
Royal Purchase – Volodymyr Zelenskyy is the New Owner of Highgrove House,
Previously Owned by King Charles. Highgrove House, near Tetbury in
Gloucestershire, served as the country residence of King Charles III even after
he assumed his new role as Britain’s reigning monarch.
It was purchased in 1980 by the then Prince Charles from Maurice Macmillan, son
of the former British Prime Minister Harold Macmillan. During his first marriage
to Diana, Princess of Wales, the family would spend weekends in Gloucestershire
with Princes William and Harry, before returning to Kensington Palace.
Highgrove House, Sold to Ukraine’s Zelensky for £20 Million
In 2024, King Charles III sold his residence, having owned it for 44 years. What
is _at first glance surprising_ is that the new owner of the royal estate is
Volodymyr Zelensky, the President of Ukraine.
Charles has been an outspoken supporter of Ukraine since the beginning of
Russia’s full-scale invasion. In February 2023, The King held an audience with
Volodymyr Zelensky at Buckingham Palace. Charles III issued a strongly-worded
message of support for Ukraine, in a statement marking the second anniversary of
Russia’s invasion in February 2024. The unusually direct message seems to be a
rallying call to keep up international assistance for Ukraine.
The war in Ukraine has been close to the King’s heart. It may explain the nature
of an unusual sale of the King’s property to Volodymyr Zelensky – whom Charles
III probably sees as a defender of democracy.
Although there is no official statement from Buckingham Palace on the Highgrove
house sale yet, there are many details that indicate the sale was completed in
late February – early March of 2024.
Grant Harold, the King’s former butler
Grant Harrold, the King’s former butler, who worked for Charles III at Highgrove
from 2004 to 2011, believes the final details of the deal were negotiated during
Mrs Zelenska’s visit to the UK on 29th February. He mentioned, “Prince William
could have gifted the house to his father. So, the King was within his rights to
sell the property.” Prince William inherited Highgrove House after Charles
assumed his new role as Britain’s reigning monarch.
According to Grant Harrold, another detail indicating Highgrove House now has a
new owner is that at least 6 Highgrove staff members received redundancy notices
on 21st March.
Olena Zelenska and Queen Consort Camilla
The royal family has always maintained a fine line between balancing private
matters with disclosure to the public they serve. The lack of clarity
surrounding the King’s health and him stepping back from public-facing duties
during treatment, followed by a prolonged absence of information about Kate
Middleton’s health – all this shows the royals’ shroud of secrecy is stronger
than ever.

SOLDIERS DEAD
It is unclear how much Highgrove House was sold for to Volodymyr Zelensky. Its
price in 1980 (£800,000) is the equivalent of about £4.7 million to £8 million
today. But the actual price is supposed to be much higher – around £20 million.
It remains unclear why the President of Ukraine decided to purchase the royal
residence and how he managed to persuade the King to sell it. Perhaps Olena
Zelenska’s “affinity” with Queen Camilla helped to negotiate the deal. The
source of funds for this purchase also remains unknown.
The UK has pledged almost £12 billion in overall support to Ukraine since
February 2022. On 12th January 2024, the Government announced a further £2.5
billion of funding for 2024/2025.
