Prince Harry has revealed that he was able to separate financially from the royal family because his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, left him an inheritance and told Oprah Winfrey: “I think you saw it coming.”
The Duke of Sussex told interviewer Oprah Winfrey that he was now living off the money his late mother left him after she was “cut off financially” early last year when he and the Duchess moved to the United States.
“I have what my mother left me and without that we would not have been able to do this,” she said of her new life in Los Angeles. “It’s like he saw it coming and he’s been with us throughout this whole process.”
The princes kept around £ 6.5 million each when their mother, Diana, Princess of Wales, died 23 years ago. The sum was invested and generated substantial interest, with Prince Harry inheriting around £ 10 million on his 30th birthday.
He also left Diana’s children her wedding dress, designed by David and Elizabeth Emanuel and made of thousands of pearls, silk capes and a 25-foot train.
In 2013, Earl Spencer, Diana’s brother, said that other items would also be delivered to William and Harry, according to their mother’s will.
Other items delivered include: 28 other dresses, designer gowns and evening gowns that belonged to Diana, two diamond tiaras, the original text of Earl Spencer’s tribute to her sister at the funeral at Westminister Abbey, and the score and lyrics by Sir Elton. John and Bernie Taupin’s version of Candle in the Wind, performed by Sir Elton at Diana’s funeral.
