According to to Ellen Wood "The Queen and the Duke have separate but adjoining bedrooms. Their dressing rooms are designed so they can enter/exit each other's bedrooms privately.

There are many possible reasons for this, not the least of which is that Her Majesty is often the last person to go to bed. She's known to frequently work past midnight if engagements kept her from finishing her normal daily work.

Also Christine Smith added that "They have different schedules, Plus, the Queen is awakened with important news in the night, which the Duke feels can wait. If one takes ill, the other one won’t be susceptible to it. Separate beds help them rest better. Their room are connected though.
