While Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are currently going through a complicated period after Spotify decided to break their $20 million contract, opposite, Kate Middleton and Prince William are seeing their bank accounts fill up. On June 29, the Daily Mail indeed revealed that Prince William, who is now Prince of Wales, received 6 million pounds, or around 7 million euros since the death of her famous grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
Thanks to the accounts published by the Duchy of Cornwall, we discover that the Prince of Wales obtained land, real estate but also and above all a lucrative portfolio of stocks and bonds managed by wise advisers, in connection with the banks. of the City. We then learn that 28 million euros were generated by this prerogative and that King Charles who was Prince of Wales until September 2022 would have received half of this sum. Prince William could then have received nearly 12 million euros but would have decided to keep only 7 million and keep the rest as “working capital” to remain cautious and “prepare for the future”.
Passing from simple Duke of Cambridge to Prince of Wales, Prince William has thus gone from a salary of 6 million euros per year to 24 million annually, an increase of 600%! We also note that if his stock portfolio management is well managed, this salary could increase each year… Enough to allow his wife Kate Middleton and their three adorable children George, Charlotte and Louis to have a luxurious lifestyle . Of course, the future heir to the throne will have to pay “voluntary taxes” to fund the costs of his princely home and private residence of Adelaide Cottage.
