As he turns 40, Prince Harry to accept $8.5 million as inheritance: Ex-staffer

Prince Harry will not be rejecting his enormous inheritance on his birthday this week, according to a former royal staffer. Prince Harry will accept his $8.5 million inheritance because it's money that's owed to him.

The late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother made arrangements for the Duke of Sussex to celebrate his 40th birthday on Sunday and receive an incredible $8.5 million cash bonus. There was a lot of debate about whether Harry would accept the money because he was no longer employed by the royal family. It appears that the duke will not be giving up, though.

One of the conditions of the $90 million trust fund that the late Queen Elizabeth II's mother established for her family was that Harry could access his share of the trust upon turning 40. Harry is apparently going to get a bigger portion than what William got on his 40th birthday, in contrast to his estranged brother, who was honored with a ceremonial bell concert at Westminster Abbey on the milestone birthday.

The royal family prefers to celebrate these occasions in secret, so the money will be a part of Harry's birthday celebrations, which should see him receive birthday wishes from his family and celebrate with his wife and family, doing something very nice but probably in private, as quoted in a report by The New York Post.

Harry's portion of the inheritance reportedly left William and his spouse, Princess Catherine, disgusted.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's estimated net worth of $60 million will have a pleasant boost from the sizeable amount of money. Following their 2020 departure from the royal life and relocation to the US, they have undertaken a number of high-profile projects, which have significantly increased their net worth.
