Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales and wife of Prince William, has an impressive personal fortune that has grown since her royal wedding nearly 13 years ago.
Kate’s wealth comes not only from her marriage to the heir to the British throne, but also from her own family.
Kate comes from an upper-middle-class family that has tapped into the children’s party market.
Her mother, Carole Middleton, founded a successful company in 1987 called Party Pieces, which sells all kinds of items for parties. The company is estimated to be worth about $45 million as of 2011.
However, the company has gone through some problems and her parents have had to face serious financial drawbacks that have put their fortune in check.
What is Kate Middleton’s net worth?
According to the website Celebrity Net Worth, the Princess of Wales has an estimated net worth of $10 million.
Kate, who has two younger siblings, Pippa and James, was educated at prestigious private schools and graduated in art history from the University of St. Andrews, where she met Prince William.
Since then, her life has been marked by public scrutiny and royal duties, as well as luxury and glamour.
When Prince William succeeds her father, King Charles, to the throne, Kate will become Queen Consort of the United Kingdom, a title that will give her even more power and influence.
However, her personal fortune will remain separate from that of her husband, which is estimated at around $100 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.
