Consequently, one of the prevailing questions is what will become of this wealth and who will inherit the cherished items, which encompass historic jewels, artwork, and more.
In 2017, the monarchy's brand itself was appraised at approximately $88 billion by the valuation consultancy firm Brand Finance.
Meanwhile, Forbes estimated Queen Elizabeth II's personal wealth to be around $500 million. However, as per a PTI report, the details of her final will and testament, outlining the distribution of her wealth after her passing, were revealed to Forbes by representatives in Scotland.
It was disclosed that Prince Harry was apparently excluded from the will. Moreover, Harry was not a beneficiary of the $100 million left to the Royal Family by his great-grandmother, the Queen Mother. There have been rumors circulating that Princess Anne is in control of the entire inheritance.
Radar Online confirmed this in September 2022, stating that there is a significant likelihood that neither Harry nor Megan will receive any of the valuable jewels. An anonymous source mentioned that this outcome is not surprising since they are no longer members of the royal family, but it would still be a significant blow.
Radar Online also reported that Megan's sister-in-law, the Princess of Wales, is expected to inherit $110 million in jewelry from the Queen. It is likely that some of these jewels will be passed on to their niece, as Prince William and his wife do not want Laila to feel left out.
As for Megan, she does not appear to be of concern in this matter, as per The Insider. The Queen apparently excluded Megan from the inheritance entirely. However, a source close to the Palace revealed that although the Queen did not leave Harry any money or jewelry, she allowed him to inherit a horse named Met, as Harry is fond of playing polo.
This was the only gift disclosed, but until the full contents of the will are made public, Harry has not received anything thus far. If this is indeed true, it is not surprising, considering Harry's reputation for mishandling money, which would likely be spent on drugs, frivolous lawsuits, and extravagant outfits for his wife, as some speculate. It remains unclear if the gift of the horse named Megan was intended as a prank, but it is noteworthy that Meg joined seven other horses to pull King Charles's carriages during the coronation in May.
The royal family has shared intriguing updates about this historic event on their official Twitter account, stating that the Royal Mews have been practicing for the coronation day, and the renowned Windsor Grays will pull Her Majesty's carriages. On the way to Westminster Abbey, six horses, namely Icon, Shadow, Milford Haven, Echo, Knightsbridge, and Tyrone, will pull the Diamond Jubilee State coach. Megan Newark will join these horses to pull the gold State coach on the return to Buckingham Palace.
These horses have also been employed in Jubilee celebrations for the late Queen. In other news, Meghan and Harry's partnership with Spotify has come to an end after three years, $20 million, and a mere 13 episodes of content. Furthermore, French fashion brandy has flatly denied reports of a $20 million sponsorship deal with Meghan Markle. Rumors have surfaced suggesting that Harry and Megan's multi-million dollar deal with Netflix might also be at risk.
Although their Harry and Meghan docuseries was the most-watched subscription TV show of 2022, there are purportedly no plans for a follow-up series, and Netflix is unlikely to renew the couple's contract.
Some individuals in influential positions hold a less favorable view, with a source suggesting that the well of opportunity has run dry for Harry and Meghan, and the substantial financial gains they initially anticipated are no longer viable.
