This is true and its quite possible that the same will be done for Harry and Meghan with Frogmore Cottage. A *very* long lease.
Andrew has started with a 75 year lease on Royal Lodge and if I'm not mistaken, that lease can extend to his daughters after his death too. Edward's lease is for 50 years. Both Andrew and Edward paid into renovations to their residences with their own private monies along with Crown Estate funding part of it (at least at Bagshot).
It makes good business sense to me.
