Queen Elizabeth II

-----

Not strictly true.

The Royal Palaces are all in the ownership of The Crown Estates The Government also does not own The Crown Estate. It is managed by an independent organisation>

Queen Elizabeth II owns the royal residences of Sandringham House in Norfolk, England and Balmoral, which is a castle in Scotland.

----

Not strictly true either

Whilst the crown estate is managed by an independent body it is infact on behalf of the government. The crown estate is effectively leased to the government from the Queen in a contract that is renewed on every monarchs ascension since George III. In effect, if Charles decides not to renew this agreement he will lose the civil list payment but regain control of the crown estate and its £7bn portfolio.
