As his fortune grows, so does online backlash \u2014 critics are calling out royal privilege, family drama, and financial double standards.<\/p>\n

King Charles III’s personal wealth has seen a major boost in 2025, rising by \u00a330 million (approximately $38 million) to an estimated \u00a3640 million \u2014 roughly $810 million.<\/p>\n

\n

The increase places him on par with former Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and his wife Akshata Murty, whose combined wealth is reportedly on the decline. The surge is largely linked to the Crown Estate’s\u00a0soaring profits<\/a>, particularly from new licenses granted for offshore wind farms.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

While most royal assets are held in trust “in the right of the Crown” and are excluded from the King’s personal fortune, his private holdings \u2014 including the Balmoral and Sandringham estates and a sizeable investment portfolio inherited from Queen Elizabeth II \u2014 make up the core of his\u00a0wealth<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Thanks to the performance of the investment portfolio His Majesty inherited from the late Queen Elizabeth II, recent estimates place his net worth at \u00a3270 million (approximately $343 million)\u00a0more than his mother<\/a>, whose fortune was reported to be around \u00a3370 million (about $470 million) in 2022.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Notably, King Charles III was not required to\u00a0pay inheritance tax<\/a>\u00a0on the assets passed down to him due to a long-standing exemption granted to sovereign-to-sovereign transfers. Without that privilege, the estate would have faced a 40 percent tax on assets exceeding a specific threshold.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The announcement sparked strong reactions online. One netizen\u00a0commented<\/a>,\u00a0“A fortune he didn’t actually earn,”\u00a0<\/i>while another\u00a0criticized<\/a>,\u00a0“That’s obscene nothing but a shower of Grifters. Down with the Crown.”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Another person\u00a0added<\/a>,\u00a0“And had the AUDACITY to say he couldn’t afford to pay for his sons wife (as employee for the crown) and grandchildren security but pays for his BROTHER to be tucked away in a castle the brother can’t even afford \ud83d\ude44(you know the one \ud83d\ude0f) [sic].”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

A fourth\u00a0wrote<\/a>,\u00a0“No wonder why Harry is desperate to make amends with his father after he publicly bashed him \ud83d\ude02”\u00a0<\/i>while a fifth\u00a0added<\/a>,\u00a0“He could do so much good with that money, but he’s stingy. He could even pay for security to see Harry, Meaghan [sic] and his grandchildren. POS.”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Others took a more neutral stance, acknowledging that His Majesty is, after all, a\u00a0king by birthright<\/a>, while another expressed no personal objection to the wealth, simply\u00a0commenting<\/a>\u00a0that he had “won the birth lottery” and suggesting that it came with the territory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Another netizen\u00a0shared<\/a>,\u00a0“Interesting to see how the royal finances evolve over time. I wonder what factors contributed to the increase.”\u00a0<\/i>Someone else\u00a0expressed<\/a>\u00a0a similar sentiment,\u00a0“Interesting to see King Charles’ net worth on the rise. Always curious how royal finances change , especially with the changing role of the monarchy in modern times.”<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
