At the tender age of 10, Prince George finds himself catapulted into a life of extraordinary wealth.
As the second-in-line to the throne, he hails from an undoubtedly affluent family.
However, what sets Prince George apart is not just his royal lineage but also the remarkable net worth and substantial inheritance that await him.
Even at such a young age, Prince George has already left an indelible mark with an impressive legacy.
His net worth is estimated to be a staggering £2.9 billion, a fact that has caused envy even among his own family members, including his uncle, Prince Harry.
When Prince George was born on July 22, 2013, at St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington, London, he inherited a vast expanse of land spanning over 133,000 acres across 23 counties in the UK.
According to estimates by the Economic Times, this land was valued at more than £0.83 billion back in 2019.
Under British law, the monarch’s eldest child inherits the possession of the Duchy of Cornwall, a real estate portfolio.
Although Prince William is next in line to possess the benefits that come with this inheritance, eventually, it will be passed on to his eldest son, Prince George.
Furthermore, as the eldest son of the Prince of Wales, Prince George will also have access to funds in the Duchy of Lancaster, as well as money from the government-allocated sovereign grant.
The Duchy of Lancaster, founded in the 13th century, holds a unique portfolio of land, property, and assets held in trust.
Currently owned by His Majesty the King as Duke of Lancaster, the rural estates encompass 44,748 acres of land in England and Wales, primarily located in Lancashire, Yorkshire, Cheshire, Staffordshire, and Lincolnshire.
While the exact net worth of the British royal family remains undisclosed, Forbes estimates it to be around £22 billion.
This figure includes the values of the Crown Estate, Buckingham Palace, the Duchy of Cornwall, the Duchy of Lancaster, Kensington Palace, and the Crown Estate in Scotland.
Interestingly, Prince George’s remarkable wealth and inheritance have not only captivated the public’s attention but also had an impact on his uncle, Prince Harry.
In a revealing interview, Prince Harry expressed that Prince George’s birth served as a wake-up call for him and his wife, Meghan.
He acknowledged the limited window of time he had to make his mark on the world before Prince William’s children grow up and take the spotlight.
This sentiment reveals a certain jealousy and bitterness harbored by Prince Harry towards his own niece and nephews.
Despite the efforts of his PR team to portray him as a fun-loving guy who adores children, it seems that Prince Harry’s relationship with Prince George and his siblings is not as close as one might assume.
Unlike the captured candid moments we have seen between Prince Harry and Mike Tyndall’s children, there are no such glimpses with Prince William’s kids.
Moreover, rumors of Prince Harry showing up drunk around the children further strained his relationship with Prince William, ultimately leading to his departure from Kensington Palace.
