Princess Charlotte is the world’s richest child – worth £1bn more than…see details below 😱👇
Princess Charlotte is richer than both her brothers according to new data, with the young royal having an estimated net worth of £3.9 billion.
Despite not yet reaching her eighth birthday, the Prince and Princess of Wales’s second born child is not only the wealthiest child in her family but the wealthiest in the world, beating the likes of Blu Ivy Carter and North West, the daughters of Jay-Z and Kanye West.
The incredible wealth comes down to several sources of income and is only set to increase as she grows older and takes on a more prominent role in public life
Prince George, the eldest and heir to the throne is second in the list of wealthy children with prince Louis placing ninth with a paltry £97.9 million net worth.
Much of Princess Charlotte’s net worth owes to the “Kate effect” the phenomenon used to describe her mother’s effortless ability to increase the desirability and often the price of outfits that she wears for the designers.
Most fashion pieces that the Princess of Wales is seen in subsequently fly off the shelves, with a photo of Kate in an outfit able to transform the future of designers.
Research from Brand Finance cited Kate as “the most powerful royal fashion influencer” and reported that pieces Kate wears increase desirability by 38 percent for American shoppers.
The King’s granddaughter is in line for significant inheritance in the years to come and has investments and business ventures already in her name as well as significant land holdings.
Despite being beaten to top spot by his little sister, Prince George’s net worth of £2.8 billion is still extraordinary and is nearly £2 billion more than third place Rza Athelston Mayers’s net worth, the son of pop sensation Rihanna.
It is reported that Prince George received a £18,000 present from his grandfather King Charles III for his tenth birthday and that he inherited 133,000 acres of land across 23 counties in the UK when he was born.
The land is known as the Duchy of Cornwall, a private estate valued at more than £1 billion created to provide an income for the eldest son of the reigning British monarch.
Prince George will take control of the estate once his father Prince William assumes the throne.
