Recent disclosures indicate that Prince Harry inherited a larger sum than his brother, Prince William, from the estate of their great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, after her demise in 2002.


As reported by the Daily Express, valued at approximately £70 million, the Queen Mother's estate encompassed valuable assets and property contents passed on to her daughter, Queen Elizabeth II. In 1994, she allocated two-thirds of her fortune to a trust fund designated for her great-grandchildren. Reports suggest that Prince Harry emerged as the primary beneficiary of this trust, receiving a more substantial share compared to Prince William.

This disparity in inheritance allocation can be ascribed to variations in the princes' future financial prospects. As the eldest in line to the throne, Prince William is poised to inherit significant royal assets and resources upon assuming the throne. Conversely, Prince Harry, being the younger sibling and fifth in line to the throne, holds a more distant position in the line of succession. This discrepancy likely influenced the distribution of the inheritance.


Following the tragic demise of their mother, Princess Diana, in 1997, both princes inherited a substantial sum. Initially, just under £13 million was apportioned to Prince William and Prince Harry, which dwindled to £8.5 million after accounting for death duties.

However, shrewd investments managed by royal advisors saw this amount burgeon to over £20 million over time. Upon reaching their twenties, both Prince Harry and Prince William gained access to these funds.


Their relocation to the United States, particularly to California, prompted them to invest in an opulent £12.8 million mansion, partly financed by an £8.3 million mortgage.
