Prince George – the future King – is second in line to the throne and that should technically make him the most important member of the family. However, his younger sister Princess Charlotte has beaten him in net worth. Articles report that the only daughter of Prince William and the Princess of Wales reigns at the top of an exclusive list: she is the richest kid in the world. But how is that possible?

Princess Charlotte beats Prince George
Kate Middleton’s daughter Princess Charlotte has surpassed her brothers in her net worth. According to My London, in 2022, Princess Charlotte’s net worth was estimated to be around $4.9 billion (£3.6 billion). Now in 2023, this has grown by $100,000 to reach a staggering $5 billion.
Prince George, on the other hand, was worth around $2.8 billion (£2.1 billion) in 2022. Though his net worth has also improved in 2023, he is still far behind his sister with $3.6 billion (£2.9 billion).
It is important to note that those numbers change the more websites you look at.
How can Princess Charlotte be richer than Prince George?
This comes as she’s tipped to inherit expensive heirlooms, jewellery and other fashion items from her great-grandmother, grandmother and mother. A palace insider has confirmed that a minimum of two specific pieces of jewellery and heirlooms are already being looked at for the 7-year-old Princess. One of these pieces is the famous Spencer Tiara, the one worn by Lady Diana Spencer on her wedding day.
In December 2023, Marie Claire reports that Princess Charlotte is benefitting for the 'Kate Middleton effect'. Just like her mother, when Princess Charlotte wears something it instantly sells out.
What about the other royal children?
Other younger Royals like Prince William and Kate’s sons – Prince George and Louis – value less than her. Prince Louis is at a modest $992 million (£720 million). While Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s son Archie is roughly worth $29 million (£21.6 million).
