Charles III: a fortune estimated at 2 billion euros
The Guardian has just revealed that the fortune of the future king of England is estimated at more than 1.8 billion pounds, or about 2 billion euros. A figure which is the result of several expert analyzes on the many possessions of the husband of Camilla Parker Bowles.
The newspaper thus explains that part of the income of Charles III comes from the rents of his numerous real estate properties which would already allow him to garner 20 million pounds per year.

Without forgetting the castle of Sandringham which he also owns and which is estimated at 250 million pounds and from which he is currently collecting the money from the sale of tickets to visit the interior of the palace.
We then learn that Charles III inherited nearly 70 thoroughbred horses from his mother, a stable estimated at 27 million pounds, note that the monarch would have already sold some of them… enough to bring him 2.3 million pounds. Finally, still according to The Guardian, Charles III is also the owner of many “gifts” of great value such as a spectacular collection of rare stamps but 400 works of art including paintings by Salvador Dali and Claude Monet. What add nearly 25 million pounds to the bill.
Faced with these revelations, a spokesperson for the king reacted through an official press release to deny this amount. The latter assures that the amounts advanced by The Guardian are a “creative mixture of speculation, supposition and inaccuracy” and did not fail to recall that Buckingham Palace never made comments on the personal fortune of family members. royal.
