It\u2019s always a treat to hear about what the royals are up to. Whether it\u2019s Prince William<\/a> showing up at a football match with one of his kids<\/a>, Kate Middleton<\/a> curating an art exhibit<\/a> or Duchess Sophie<\/a> turning heads in another elegant outfit<\/a>\u2014it\u2019s the kind of content royal-watchers live for. But a rare treat? Having multiple royals all in one place. Well, that\u2019s about to change, as King Charles<\/a> is reportedly welcoming some familiar faces to his summer retreat at Balmoral Castle<\/a> in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, King Charles, 76, officially began his summer stay at Balmoral. Queen Camilla<\/a>, 78, is with him, as expected, and, according to\u00a0GB News<\/a>, Prince Andrew, 65, and his ex-wife\u00a0Sarah Ferguson<\/a>, also 65, have\u00a0surprisingly\u00a0arrived too. The Duke of York and Fergie are said to be staying at Craigowan Lodge, a cozy seven-bedroom property just half a mile from the King\u2019s main residence.<\/p>\n

But that\u2019s not all, more family is expected. The outlet also reports that Prince Andrew and Sarah\u2019s daughters, Princess Beatrice<\/a>, 37, and Princess Eugenie<\/a>, 35, will be joining with their families. Beatrice is married to Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi<\/a>, 41, and they share two daughters, Sienna<\/a>, 3, and Athena<\/a>, 6 months. Edoardo also has a son, Christopher Woolf, 9, from a previous relationship. Eugenie is married to Jack Brooksbank<\/a>, 39, and they have two sons: August<\/a>, 4, and Ernest<\/a>, 2. Sounds like Balmoral is about to get pretty lively.<\/p>\n

Balmoral Castle has long been a beloved summer escape for the royals. Buckingham Palace even shared a throwback post<\/a> this week featuring vintage photos from past visits.<\/p>\n

“For almost two centuries, members of the Royal Family have spent their summers on the Balmoral Estate in Scotland,” the caption began.<\/p>\n

“This tradition began in 1852 when Queen Victoria and Prince Albert acquired Balmoral Castle,” the post read. “Since then, the castle and its grounds in the Scottish Highlands have provided the setting for many private and official family moments and have cemented the family\u2019s affection for Scotland and its people.”<\/p>\n

Looks like King Charles is keeping that legacy alive\u2014family reunion and all.<\/p>\n
