When the late Princess Diana passed away in 1997, she spilt her fortune equally between her sons Prince Harry and Prince William.
However, when the Queen Mother passed away five years later, Prince Harry inherited a substantially larger amount than his brother from her £14 million fortune, The Sun reported.
Seeing as Prince William will eventually be king a lot comes with that. William will take over the Duchy of Cornwall and all the private estate that comes with it.
That is why Queen Elizabeth’s late mother wanted to secure Prince Harry’s financial future as he will get nothing.
A 2002 BBC report stated the 'bulk' of her £14 million estate will go to the Duke of Sussex "since William will benefit financially by becoming king".
