Henry Charles Albert David net worth is $40 Million
Henry Charles Albert David Wiki Biography
The Prince Charming of the British royal family, Henry Charles Albert David is formally known as Prince Henry of Wales – and much more commonly, simply as Prince Henry, fourth in line to the throne of the Commonwealth of Nations and holding an estimated net worth of $42 million. One of the United Kingdom’s youngest millionaires and richest under-thirties, Prince Harry was definitely born into wealth, but that does not mean he has spent his life sitting idly by. Between his various investments and his frontline military service as an officer in the British Army, there is little doubt that Prince Harry has lived up to his illustrious ancestry, displaying the same grit and resolve that has seen the British royal family through for generations.
Prince Harry Net Worth $42 Million
Born on 15 September 1984 in Paddington, London, Prince Harry is a descendant of one of Europe’s oldest royal families. Harry’s father, Prince Charles, is the heir to the throne currently held by his grandmother – Queen Elizabeth II – while his mother was the ever-popular and charismatic Princess Diana. When Harry was still little, Diana decided that he and his brother, Prince William, would be brought up with a much wider range of experiences than traditional for royal children – and so the three travelled to various places, from Disney World to fast food restaurants like “McDonald’s”, and even to places like homeless shelters and AIDS clinics. Tragically, Princess Diana died on 31 August 1997 in a car crash that echoed throughout the world, leaving Harry in the sole care of his father, Prince Charles. Yet Diana’s worldly ways had already left their mark on the young Harry, and this would become increasingly more obvious as the years went by.
Prince Harry was educated in a wealth of prestigious institutions, including graduating from the famous English independent boarding school, Eton. After his graduation in 2003, Harry applied to study in the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in pursuit of an officer’s rank in the British Army. Despite an earlier reputation as a “wild child” – derived largely from the unruliness of his youth, when Harry was discovered smoking cannabis and later became involved in several violent altercations with media photographers – the prince excelled in his military training and was elevated to the rank of lieutenant in 2008. In 2011, Prince Harry was promoted again after passing the difficult training programs to allow him to fly a military attack helicopter, and he currently bears the rank of captain. And while his officer’s salary might seem small fry compared to the wealth Harry was already born with, it has certainly shown that Prince Harry deserves his impressive net worth, and can work definitely work for his money if he needs to.
How rich is Prince Harry? Currently, Harry’s net worth is believed to be around $42 million. Part of this Harry inherited simply by being born into the British royal family. However, the prince also inherited a sizable amount of money in investments made by his late mother, Princess Diana. Prince Harry has shown himself more than capable of managing these investments skilfully. Besides that, Harry also has his military career, presently holding the rank of Captain in the British Army. The prince often puts his wealth to good use, and Harry is involved with a number of charitable causes – including his own foundation managed together with his brother, Prince William, titled simply “The Foundation of Prince William and Prince Harry”.
Today, Prince Harry continues to lead an active military career. Harry remains single despite, having recently separated with his girlfriend Cressida Bonas – though the two remain on friendly terms.
