Meghan Markle and Prince Harry ‘buy a bespoke photograph of Lewis Hamilton’ for Frogmore Cottage
PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle are thought to have splashed out on a bespoke print of Lewis Hamilton for their new pad.
As the Duke and Duchess of Sussex settle into their newly refurbished home at Frogmore Cottage, which cost £2.3 million to revamp, it seems they’re now adding the finishing touches.
A photographer revealed they’d had a one-of-a-kind commission come in – from a royal.
Richard Wilson, who runs Landscape Print Shop on Etsy, didn’t disclose which family member has snapped up a print, only that he was “proud” one of his images would be hanging in a royal household.
Posting on Instagram, he said: “The 1 of 1 A1 aluminium print has just arrived.
“Ready to be shipped to a Royal household.
“I’m immensely proud of having one of my photographs displayed in a house owned by a member of a Royal family.”
He went on to say the limited edition print ordered was a one-off.
Richard added: “Never had a image printed in this size or on this material, I’m blown away.
“Thank you all so so much for the support and many messages with kind words, I’m constantly blown away by people going out of their way to send such messages, it means more than I can ever express.”
The print, available to buy on Etsy for between £44.99 and £99.99, is described as: “The historic 6th British Grand Prix win for Lewis Hamilton in 2019, this image is now available as a limited edition print.
“Wearing a ‘one off’ British Grand Prix helmet, this print shows Lewis Hamilton climbing into his Mercedes F1 AMG Formula 1 car before qualifying.

“To celebrate this record breaking win, the print will be limited to 666 prints world wide and individually number and signed by the Photographer.”
Commenting on the post, people said whoever bought it is “one lucky owner”, with another adding a royal purchase was the ultimate “seal of approval”.
