Will Prince Harry Inherit Money From Prince Philip, Even Though the Royal Family Cut Him Off?
Philip and the Queen did have their own private fortunes, however, according to Celebrity Net Worth, Philip was worth $30 million when he died. He had a vast art collection as well as a portfolio of stocks that he shared with his wife. According to The Express, the Queen will likely hold onto these assets.
Not only that, the Duke also had his own money from his naval career and was born into royalty himself. However, whatever money he made will be passed on to his family via his will.
The contents of the royal’s last will and testament have not been revealed, but there doesn’t appear to be any rule barring Philip from leaving an inheritance of some kind for Harry.
According to Forbes, Harry and Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, inherited £10 million (or $13.8 million) each when Lady Diana died in August 1997. The money was put into a trust for them to access when they were older.
