Prince Harry will not be turning down his huge inheritance on his birthday this week, according to a former royal staffer.
The Duke of Sussex is set to ring in his 40th birthday on Sunday, and to go with it is a massive $8.5 million cash bonus, thanks to arrangements made by his late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother.
After much speculation over whether Harry would accept the money given that he’s no longer a working member of the royal family, it appears as though the duke will not be saying “No.”
“I’ve no doubt that Harry will accept it, it’s money that’s owed to him, money that’s coming to him,” King Charles’ former royal butler Grant Harrold exclusively told The Post.
“I don’t think he will decline the money, it’s inheritance so it’s his right,” he said, adding that “it’s already something that has been set in place for years now.”
The late Queen Elizabeth II’s mother put $90 million into a trust fund for her family, and listed that Harry was to access his share of the trust when he turned 40 as one of the fund’s stipulations.
Unlike his estranged brother, who received a ceremonial bell concert at Westminster Abbey on the milestone birthday, Harry is reportedly set to receive a larger share than what William received on his 40th birthday.
“[The money] will be part of Harry’s birthday celebrations which will hopefully see him receive well wishes from his family and celebrate with his wife and family, doing something very nice but probably in private — as what I’ve experienced with the royals before, is that they like to celebrate these things privately behind closed doors,” Harrold said.
It was reported that William and his wife, Princess Catherine, were left “disgusted” at Harry’s share of the inheritance.
Sources close to the Prince and Princess of Wales told Closer last month that the pair feel the duke is not deserving of the income.
The hefty sum of money will be a welcome addition to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s net worth, which currently sits comfortably at an estimated $60 million.
Their net worth was largely boosted thanks to the several high-profile projects they’ve taken on since quitting royal life in 2020 and moving to the US.
