A who's who guide to the royal residence

Situated in the heart of London, Kensington Palace has been home to members of the British Royal Family for centuries. A bolthole for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the early days of their romance, it was also home to Princess Diana throughout her marriage to King Charles and the final years of her life.

It's now the base for multiple family units of senior royals, including the Prince and Princess of Wales.
