King Charles is now richer than his late mother, Queen Elizabeth. According to the 2024 Sunday Times Rich List, the British monarch’s personal wealth stands at $770 million, making him the 258th richest person in the U.K.
This marks a $12 million increase since the list was released in 2023, per The Sunday Times. Charles’ wealth has far exceeded his mother’s. Queen Elizabeth’s personal wealth stood at $468 million before her death in September 2022, according to the 2022 Sunday Times Rich List.
A former aide of the King’s shared that Charles rebuilt his wealth following his $21 million divorce from Princess Diana in 1996. He managed this by saving profits he received from the Duchy of Cornwall.
Charles significantly increased the duchy’s annual profits, boosting them by 42.6% to over $31 million between 2011 and 2022. During this period, he received over $268 million from the duchy, The Sunday Times reported.
