King Charles III's grand forest gift to Prince George

It has always been known that grandparents like to spoil their grandchildren. Charles III cultivates this custom in a manner befitting a king. The gift he gave 11-year-old Prince George is something to be envied.
King Charles III is renowned for his love of greenery. Thanks to him, the grounds around the Balmoral estate have changed significantly over the decades. The aristocrat planted numerous trees and flowers there. A nursery was created in the gardens, and instead of an empty field, a forest began to spread.
The monarch named it after his first grandchild, who, even at two years old, helped him with this passion. Prince George's forest is not the only gesture the grandfather has made for the little boy. The 11-year-old, who is second in line to the throne after Prince William, could count on much more.
On the occasion of his birthday, the Windsor family patriarch completed the formalities that will allow Kate Middleton's son (due to his birth order, he can be proud of the title His Royal Highness) to inherit Balmoral Castle. It currently belongs to Charles III, who received it after the death of his mother, Elizabeth II.
Unfortunately, the grandfather cannot be equally generous toward all his grandchildren. The press in the Isles covers his efforts to maintain good relations with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's children as well.
According to press reports, the ruler of the United Kingdom is trying to convince his younger offspring to correct the mistake made a few years ago and decide to move back to the United Kingdom once again. Together with his family, he would settle in the residence offered to him by his father.
King Charles III wants to acquire another property. He does not have his brother's consent
These are not the only complications keeping the 75-year-old up at night. It is speculated that he is paying special attention to the complicated legal situation surrounding the property currently inhabited by Prince Andrew.
King Charles III wants to take away his controversial brother's Royal Lodge palace, valued at $36 million. He is not inclined to move. As "The Sun" reports, after consulting with lawyers, the gentleman refers to the lease agreement, under which he can reside on the property for 75 years.
If an agreement is reached between the relatives despite the disagreements, Royal Lodge will go to Prince William and Kate.
