The new royal baby, who has not yet made a public appearance with his mother, Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge,  stands to inherit $1 billion, based on an estimate of how much his royal family is worth, according to Wealth-X.
Of the family of the yet unnamed royal baby, Queen Elizabeth II is worth the most at $660 million, Wealth-X, a firm that researches ultra-high net worth individuals, estimates. Prince Charles is worth an estimated $370 million, Prince William is worth an estimated $20 million, while his brother Harry is estimated to have $16 million.
Wealth-X’s figures do not include the possible inheritance of the Crown Jewels and the Royal Collection. The queen’s income in 2014 is expected to rise by 15 percent to nearly $58 million after the Crown Estate reported an increase in profit in June.
