Privacy Notice Prince Harry said that his children are the “best gift” he has ever been given. The Duke of Sussex is dad to Prince Archie, five and three-year-old Princess Lilibet with his wife Meghan Markle. Today, Sunday 15 September, Harry is celebrating his 40th birthday, but revealed that nothing could please him more than getting to watch his children grow up. Ahead of his birthday, he told People: “The best gift I’ve ever been given is, without a doubt, my kids. I enjoy watching them grow every single day, and I love being their dad.” Harry tied the knot with Meghan in 2018 but they relinquished royal duties in early 2020 and now live in LA with their two children.

According to the publication, Harry will celebrate his big day with Meghan and their children, followed by a gathering with close friends internationally. It was recently reported that Harry is set to inherit £8 million from the late Queen Mother – who died in 2002 at the age of 101 – upon his birthday. When he was 10, Harry’s great-grandmother, who was then 94, reportedly put aside a tax-free £19 million to leave to her great-grandchildren, according to The Times. It is thought that the inheritances were divided into two installments – one to be given to Harry and his brother William, 42, when they turned 21, and another on their 40th birthdays.

A former palace aide told The Times: “There was a trust fund set up at the time. It was a way in which the Queen Mother could set aside money for when her great-grandchildren were older and a way of passing a slice of her estate down in a tax-efficient way. “It was a way in which some of her estate could be ring-fenced for them.” William became Duke of Cornwall when he was made Prince of Wales after King Charles’ coronation following the death of Queen Elizabeth in September 2022, and is estimated to have received a £23.6 million fortune by inheriting the estate.

It is reported that Meghan and Harry might be spending Christmas in the UK with their children this year, according to rumours. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have reportedly been invited to celebrate the festive season at Althorp House with Harry’s uncle, Charles, Earl Spencer, reports Express.co.uk. If they accept the invitation, it would mark Meghan’s first significant visit to the UK since attending the late Queen’s funeral in 2022. However, insiders reveal that the couple has not yet received an invite to join the Royal Family for their traditional Sandringham gathering, and it’s doubtful they would accept even if one was extended.
