Harry and Meghan will soon receive around seven million pounds sterling, or more than 8.3 million euros, thanks to the inheritance from Queen Elizabeth II. This sum comes at the right time for the couple. Indeed, their earnings in America have not been as fruitful as expected. The queen, who passed away on September 8, 2022, at the age of 96, had a fortune estimated at 70 million pounds sterling (83 million euros). It was placed in a trust fund for her family.
Prince Harry is expected to receive these seven million pounds sterling on his 40th birthday, September 15, 2024. This inheritance helps to make up for the couple’s insufficient income in the United States. Their media deals have not reached the anticipated heights.
Despite a significant contract with Netflix signed in September 2020, Harry and Meghan have not accumulated as much wealth as hoped. Additionally, Harry and his brother William received a cash sum from the Duchy of Cornwall, tax-exempt. However, this was not enough to ensure their financial security.
The combined net worth of Harry and Meghan is currently estimated at around 60 million dollars, or 46 million pounds sterling or 54.6 million euros. According to British media, Harry could receive a larger share of the fund compared to his older brother. This would strengthen their financial situation.
