Top 350 Richest Brits: King Charles Climbs the Ladder
Monarch Charles ascends the throne - Monarch Charles Scales His Position
King Charles III, sporting a fortune of £670 million, has inched his way up the wealth ladder. The British monarch's personal wealth has reportedly climbed by an impressive £35 million according to The Sunday Times Rich List's 2025 edition. That's not all, folks! He shares the 238th spot with some other high-flyers.
While it's the king's newfound fortune that's making headlines, it's important to note that this increase hasn't been a result of Charles' investment brilliance. In fact, much of his wealth growth can be attributed to the investment portfolio he inherited from his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, who reigned from 1952 to 2022. Yep, you read that right! This staggering fortune encompasses the prestigious royal estates of Sandringham in Norfolk and Balmoral in Aberdeenshire, which have now become part and parcel of the king's personal wealth.
The fascinating twist? The king's wealth calculation leaves out crown properties such as Buckingham Palace. His wealth is calculated based on private assets, making a clear distinction between personal fortune and the broader resource pool managed by the Crown.
Leaving the Beckhams in the Dust
Hold on tight, 'cause here comes the king! With his sizable wealth, King Charles is now partying with the likes of former PM Rishi Sunak and his wife Akshata Murty, both of whom share the same 238th spot. On the flip side, the Beckhams, with their estimated fortunes of £500 million, have been pushed down to the 273rd spot.
In case you're wondering, the Hinduja family, behind the Indian conglomerate Hinduja Group, is atop the 2025 "Rich List." Their estimated wealth? An astounding £41 billion!
