£2.4 million renovations
Meghan and Harry spent £2.4 million of taxpayers’ money on renovations to their new home, according to official royal accounts. Work included the removal of a chimney, re-finishing the roof and adding new staircases.
The couple also had new fireplaces installed and a new “floating” wooden floor. The “floating” floor was created in the main kitchen area in order to protect the old flooring underneath.
The Sovereign Grant, which pays for salaries of staff, upkeep of palaces and official royal duties, paid for the renovations. The Sussexes paid privately for all fittings, fixtures and furnishings.After using the £2.4 million for the renovations, Harry and Meghan paid back the costs in September 2020. Harry’s spokesman confirmed he had paid the bill in full by making a contribution to the grant.
