Meghan Markle and Prince Harry spent £2.4million in taxpayers' money to renovate their new home in Windsor, Frogmore Cottage. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex moved into the Berkshire property shortly before the birth of their son, Archie, and has obtained permission for extensive refurbishment plans. The publication of the royal expense records provoked the fury of members of the public concerned about the use Meghan and Harry have been making of their taxes but royal butler Grant Harrold suggested the couple, and the rest of the Royal Family, could avoid backlash by making the records "clearer" to understand.

Speaking to Express.co.uk, Mr Harrold said: "You can understand, if they decided on a renovation that is going to cost a couple of millions for a castle or a palace, people would say it’s extreme but they can understand it – but £2.4million for a cottage, that doesn’t really make sense.

"What would have been good in the report is if there were details so we would know exactly who the £2.4million was for.

"I struggled to understand the accounts and so I’d say it would be better if they had been more transparent, a bit clearer.

"I’m sure people out there can understand it. It just needs to be written in a way the public understand exactly where the money is going and what it’s used for."
