Where do Charles and Camilla live most of the time?
King Charles III and Queen Camilla primarily live at Clarence House in London, which has been their main official residence since 2003, rather than Buckingham Palace. They are expected to remain there until at least 2027 while renovations at Buckingham Palace continue.
Since Queen Elizabeth II's death in September 2022, Windsor Castle has remained unoccupied as a residence, though King Charles III owns it and uses it for official ceremonies and state functions.
It's unclear if Her Majesty will be allowed to retain quarters at Clarence House once Prince William is king, but if not, it won't be a problem. Turns out Camilla actually has her own private home called Ray Mill House where she spends much of her private time away from the spotlight.
In his book, Yes Ma'am: The Secret Life of Royal Servants (via The Daily Mail) royal author Tom Quinn claimed that Harry and William called Queen Camilla "Lady Macbeth," "Cruella de Vil" and the "Witch of the West" as teenagers.
