Following Queen Elizabeth‘s passing on September 8, a will disclosing her vast fortune of $925 million has come to light.
According to reports from Woman’s Day, the Queen allocated portions of her wealth to various royal family members, with notable exceptions being Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
The majority of the royal family is set to inherit from the Queen, with special considerations made for her four children, particularly Princess Anne and Prince Andrew.
An inside source revealed that Queen Elizabeth specifically acknowledged Princess Anne’s dedication to the royal family by gifting her Balmoral Castle.
Despite the property technically belonging to King Charles, it is rumored that the Queen stipulated Anne’s unrestricted access to the estate.
Additionally, Princess Anne has been entrusted with caring for the Queen’s horses and advocating for their preservation, even persuading King Charles not to sell them.
Prince Andrew is said to receive a substantial annual stipend of $12.3 million for life, ensuring his financial security following his retirement from royal duties.
Buckingham Palace, Clarence House, and other significant properties like St. James’s Palace, Kensington Palace, Windsor Castle, and Sandringham have been entrusted to King Charles, who will oversee their management.
Meanwhile, Prince Edward and his family have reportedly been granted exclusive use of Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate, a place filled with cherished memories shared with Prince Philip.
Kate Middleton is said to have inherited the Queen’s collection of tiaras, originally intended for Queen Consort Camilla but passed on to Middleton due to Camilla’s preferences.
In another development, Prince Harry is set to address Queen Elizabeth II’s passing in his upcoming memoir titled “Spare.”
While much of the book was written before the Queen’s demise, People magazine confirms that the Prince will touch upon her death in the final version, scheduled for release on January 10, 2023.
In a tribute following the Queen’s death, Harry expressed gratitude for her guidance, warmth, and unwavering commitment to duty, highlighting her global impact and everlasting legacy.
Reflecting on his cherished moments with the Queen, Harry recalled her interactions with his wife Meghan Markle and their children, emphasizing her role as a guiding influence in his life.
As the world mourns the loss of Queen Elizabeth, Harry’s memoir aims to honor her memory and celebrate her enduring legacy, while also acknowledging his father, Prince Charles, in his new role as King Charles III.
