Why Princess Charlotte is the richest kid Princess world-wide- See her net-worth
When considering how much each member of the Royal Family is worth, it is perhaps unsurprising that the amounts of money involved are in the billions. Altogether the Firm was estimated to be worth £22 billion ($28 billion) in 2021, with the total sum including the worth of the Duchy of Lancaster, the Crown Estate, Buckingham Palace, the Duchy of Cornwall, Kensington Palace and the Crown Estate Scotland.
The late Queen Elizabeth’s personal assets of rare works of art and exquisite jewellery, worth £655 million ($835 million), have also been passed down to King Charles. What may be more shocking however is how much the royal children are already worth, particularly the young Waleses, who are already worth millions and in some cases billions of pounds.
Many may expect Prince George to be worth the most, as he is the oldest, but according to data from Reader’s Digest it is actually Princess Charlotte who has the highest net worth. According to the publication, eight-year-old Charlotte is worth £3.92 billion ($5 billion), while George, 10, is worth £2.82 billion ($3.6 billion) and five-year-old Louis is worth between £55 million ($70 million) and £98 million ($125 million). The reason for these astronomical figures is that when any of the Wales children are associated with a British brand, even if it is not an official promotion, it causes sales to soar.
The huge interest in the children’s fashion, especially Charlotte’s, is what makes her figure higher than her brothers’, even though George is the future King. Even more surprisingly Prince William and Princess Kate have a lower net worth than their children, with Kate possibly even having one higher than her husband, even though he was born royal. William’s is thought to be between £31 million (£$40 million) and £78 million ($100 million), made up of his hefty inheritance from his late mother Princess Diana and his late grandmother Queen Elizabeth, as well as his income from the Duchy of Cornwall.
Kate meanwhile also received an inheritance from the late Queen, mostly in jewels, which could bump up her net worth from £8 million ($10 million) to over £86 million ($110 million). King Charles’s youngest two grandchildren, Prince Archie and , have an unknown net worth as they are being brought up away from the Royal Family in California. In 2019, a retail expert predicted that Archie could boost the UK economy by bringing in over £1 billion, although this was said before his family stepped down as working royals.
Professor Joshua Bamfield, Director of the Center for Retail Research, told Hello! that profits from souvenirs and memorabilia following his birth would likely be between £48 million ($61 million) and £67 million ($85.5 million). He said, “These sales will be made in the U.K. and Europe, but Harry and Meghan are followed in the US, and we expect significant sales there also.”
