5 Police Officers 'Banned' From Kate Middleton and Prince William's Kensington Palace Home Following Alleged 'Misogynistic' Comments

Five police officers are reportedly barred from working at the royal family's residences after complaints of improper behavior were made at Kensington Palace.

The palace is Kate Middleton and Prince William's London home, with several cops allegedly making "inappropriate" comments between August 2023 and September 2024.

The Metropolitan Police investigated five Royalty and Specialist Protection officers following the accusations, according to The Sun.

“Comments from the officers were perceived as misogynistic, though the allegations were tame and none were sexual in nature," a source told the publication on May 30.

One officer allegedly made a statement saying that Kensington Palace was “full of little Hitlers." Another cop reportedly requested to be Facebook friends with a female palace staffer, who first complained about the behavior in October 2024.

Following an internal investigation, the officers' conduct was determined to not have reached the line of misconduct.

However, senior royal household staff prohibited them from working at any palaces in the future by taking away their passes. “A decision was taken that the officers were not wanted back again," another insider told The Sun.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are "said to have had no direct involvement in banning them but were informed," The Sun reported.

A Met Police rep told People on Tuesday, June 2, the "reported behavior falls below the high standards expected of officers, particularly those in frontline protective roles."

"As a result of our internal investigation into this matter, the officers received reflective practice to consider their actions and identify learning for the future," the spokesperson stated. "It remains a priority for the Met to ensure all officers and staff uphold the highest standards of professionalism, so we can continue to build trust and confidence with those we serve.”

This latest development follows allegations of other officers falling asleep while on duty at Windsor Castle. 23 cops were served misconduct notices, while 21 others were placed on restricted duties and two were removed from the palace's employment.

Kate, 44, and William, 43, relocated to Apartment 1A at Kensington Palace in October 2013 and they currently maintain a residence there.

The couple also possess Amner Hall, their $40 million abode nestled on The Firm's Sandringham Estate in Norfolk.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge spend much of their time at their "forever home" — Forest Lodge in Windsor. They also previously lived at the nearby Adelaide Cottage, and moved out in 2025.
