Windsor Castle had an unexpected visitor after a man was arrested for trespassing on the Royal grounds, and the notable home of Prince William and Kate Middleton.
The Thames Valley Police reported that a man trespassed the grounds on June 1, 2025, “At just after 1 p.m. on Sunday (1/6) a man has entered restricted grounds at Windsor Castle.”
“He was quickly challenged by Met police officers and arrested. He did not enter the inner grounds of Windsor Castle,” a spokesperson said on June 3 via People. “He was arrested on suspicion of trespass on a secure site and possession of class A drugs. He has been bailed and an investigation is ongoing by Thames Valley Police.”
“A man in his 30s has been arrested on suspicion of trespass on a protected site and possession of Class A drugs after entering private grounds at Windsor Castle,” the statement from the Police department said. “Officers in the grounds spotted the man just after 13:00hrs on Sunday, 1 June and quickly arrested him. He was then passed into the custody of Thames Valley Police.”
It’s not known whether the Prince and Princess of Wales were in their residence with their children—Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, 7— at the time of the break in. The family lives in Adelaide Cottage which is five minutes away on the vast estate that surrounds Windsor Castle.
The break-in comes months after a burglary on the Royal grounds. “At around 11.45pm on Sunday October 13, we received a report of burglary at a property on Crown Estate land near to the A308 in Windsor. Offenders entered a farm building and made off with a black Isuzu pick-up and a red quad bike. They then made off towards the Old Windsor/Datchet area,” Thames Valley Police reported.
“No arrests have been made at this stage and an investigation is ongoing,” the statement concluded. Prince William, Kate Middleton, and their kids were at home at the time of the burglary, per The Sun. It came after the reported removal of armed police officers at the gate that the intruders used. The burglars were targeting farm machinery and used a stolen vehicle to crash through a security gate on the way out.
