Privacy NoticeA royal author suggests Prince Harry’s huge inheritance could have been cut had his actions over the last four years come to light. The Duke of Sussex is set to land £7m in inheritance from his great-grandmother the late Queen Mother’s trust on his 40th birthday. Christopher Andersen, speaking to Fox News, suggested why there was a wait for the money and claimed the Queen Mother may have had second thoughts if she’d known what was to come. Mr Andersen said: “Why 40? To a woman who nearly lived to be 102, one can only imagine that 40 seemed like the perfect age to come into some extra cash – when you’re young enough to appreciate it but also old enough, and hopefully wise enough, not to blow it.” He continued: “Of course, the prince’s great-granny couldn’t have anticipated all the trouble Harry caused the rest of the family. I think she would have cut him out of [the trust] entirely had she known.”

Since breaking free from the clutches of senior royal duties alongside his wife Meghan Markle, Harry has had a falling out with his brother Prince William. Mr Andersen suggested that despite his status as the future king, he received less than his younger brother on his 40th birthday due to his role as the ‘Spare’. He said: “The Queen Mother knew he would have fewer opportunities and responsibilities. It was a logical and thoughtful decision.” Harry and Meghan’s combined fortune, estimated at around £11million, still pales in comparison to other royal couples like William and Kate Middleton. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are believed to be worth nearly £1bn (£960m), almost ten times more than Harry and Meghan who are trying to boost their income through ventures in the USA. Earlier this year, one commentator claimed that Meghan thought life in the Royal Family would be “filled with endless deference and untold wealth”. Following the release of Meghan’s American Riviera Orchard, Tom Quinn argued that she “abandoned” her successful blog The Tig in anticipation of the potential riches that awaited her.

Speaking to the Mirror, Mr Quinn stated: “Meghan’s new brand, American Riviera Orchard, has already gained popularity with over half a million followers, but it’s essentially just a rebranding of The Tig.” He added: “The brand she abandoned when she married Harry, thinking that life as a royal princess would be filled with endless deference and untold wealth. “We don’t yet know exactly what the new brand will be selling, but it’s astonishing that a Royal prince and his wife have been reduced to selling some of the things we have already been told they will be selling – marmalade, jams and even dog shampoo.”Story SavedYou can find this story in  My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
