King Charles III has reached a new milestone since becoming England’s monarch.
Charles, 75, is officially richer than his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, according to The Sunday Times’ 2024 Rich List. The list, published on Friday, May 17, states that Charles is currently the 258th wealthiest person in the U.K. with a personal wealth amount of approximately $770 million (a.k.a. around 606 million pounds.)
Charles is reportedly over $300 million richer than Elizabeth was prior to her September 2022 death. Per the outlet’s 2022 Rich List, Elizabeth amassed a personal wealth of $486 million before she passed away at age 96. Charles’ personal wealth has also increased by around $12 million since last year’s Rich List.
Ranking higher than Charles on the list is his eldest grandson Prince George’s godfather, Hugh Grosvenor, the Duke of Westminster, with a family net worth of around $12.8 billion. The outlet also reports that Charles’ most valuable assets are England’s Sandringham Estate and Scotland’s Balmoral Castle.
