Carrie Johnson, who married Boris Johnson last year, is said to be feeling pressured at Downing Street, the British Prime Minister’s official residence where the couple lived. According to information shared by sources close to the former prime minister to The Telegraph newspaper, Carrie Johnson would see Downing Street as “a prison.”
The fact that the apartment is always surrounded by photographers would also be a source of fear for Carrie Johnson, 34. The Telegraph indicates that Boris Johnson’s wife would thus be prevented from going out whenever she wanted and without guarantees that the two children would not be photographed.

The same sources assure the Telegraph that Downing Street “It was a pressure cooker”: “They were just above the workplace and it is not possible to leave it behind”. For this reason, they consider that the scenario could have been different if Boris Johnson had chosen to make Checkers his permanent base and make the daily trips to Downing Street.
With the announcement of the departure of Boris Johnson, after the resignation of dozens of members of the British government, last week, the couple does not plan to return to the house they bought, in south London, for now. The Johnsons bought a four-bedroom villa in Camberwell, south of the British capital, for €1.4 million in July 2019. However, they will not be moving there due to security risks. The property will be leased. It will be necessary to see where the couple will live, who now have a few weeks to leave Downing Street.
The British newspaper also indicates that Carrie Johnson has no plans to return to a political career. Boris Johnson’s wife led the Conservative Party’s communications for some time, but according to a friend of hers, she has no plans to return to that world.
