Following the death of Queen Elizabeth in September 2022, Prince William, now 42, inherited the Duchy of Cornwall, a vast estate established by King Edward III in 1337 to provide funds for the heir to the throne.

This extensive estate, valued at over $1 billion, spans 130,000 acres across 23 counties in England and Wales. It includes land, farms, houses, and other assets that generate sustainable income for the heir and his family.
