That sounds like a confused interpretation of medieval law and, even
then, it would not have been true. Peers of the Realm and the Church
also held land in their own right. Those lands may have been granted by
the Crown and the Crown could revoke a title and seize the lands, but
unless that happened, the land did not belong to the Crown.

Today, anybody with a freehold to land is the permanent and absolute
owner of that land.
