The world’s richest children are making headlines for their astonishing fortunes, and all credit goes to their renowned parents. HowAfrica examines these children, and Princess Charlotte of Wales tops the list, with an estimated net worth of £3.9 billion, making her the world’s wealthiest child at the age of eight.
She has a significant influence on fashion, which is fueled by the “Kate Middleton effect,” which has contributed to her expanding empire. Her brother, Prince George, is not far behind, with a net worth of £2.8 billion, confirming the royal brothers’ status as big financial powerhouses.
Rihanna and A$AP Rocky’s son, Rza Athelston Mayers, is worth nearly as much as the royalty children. At the age of one, Rza has an astonishing £943.5 million fortune, and his future is set thanks to his parents’ successful endeavors in music, fashion, and beauty.
These young heirs and heiresses are leading exceptional lives, shaping the future of both the entertainment and business industries.
Here are the world’s richest children born to celebrities.
Princess Charlotte of Wales – 8 years old
Estimated Net Worth in 2024: £3.9 billion
The “Kate Middleton Effect” has boosted Princess Charlotte’s net worth, as the royal family’s wardrobe choices have a big impact on fashion trends. Charlotte, eight, is the wealthiest royal grandchild and the world’s richest child, with a net worth estimated at £3.9 billion ($5 billion).
Most fashion items worn by the Duchess of Cambridge sell out quickly, and the term ‘the Kate effect’ was coined to characterize the influence she had on fashion firms after being photographed in their products.
The British fashion sector generates tremendous sales, with British brands earning upwards of £1 billion each year. According to Brand Finance research, Kate is “the most powerful royal fashion influencer” and the clothes she wears raise desirability by 38% among American shoppers.
Princess Charlotte is very privileged as a member of the affluent and important royal dynasty, with access to significant resources such as inheritances, investments, and even business enterprises. As Charlotte grows older, the world will undoubtedly be monitoring what a teen royal and a twenty-something royal wear, and the “Princess Charlotte effect” will only grow stronger.
Prince George of Wales – 10 years old
Estimated Net Worth in 2024: £2.8 billion
Charlotte’s older brother, ten-year-old Prince George of Wales, finished second in the race for the richest children, with a net worth of £2.8 billion ($3.6 billion). George, as the second in line to the throne after his father, Prince William of Wales, will play an important role in his destiny. Although Prince George appears to be an ordinary ten-year-old who enjoys sports and prefers pasta carbonara, there is no disputing that he was born into wealth.
When Prince William was announced as king, George’s grandfather, King Charles III, reportedly gave him a £18,000 gift as well as his royal title on his fifth birthday. George, who still has a few years remaining at boarding school, appears to be earning money for the royal family. Prince George is extremely wealthy, having inherited 133,000 acres of land spread across 23 counties in the United Kingdom when he was born.
Rza Athelston Mayers – 1-year-old
Estimated Net Worth in 2024: £943.5 million
Rihanna’s pregnancy was announced to fans in a photograph after she had kept it a secret for five months. Rihanna & A$AP Rocky’s son’s name was revealed barely a year after his birth: Rza Athelston Mayers. Rihanna went out last year about her concern for her son’s privacy after images of Rza were leaked to the media.
The A-list infant is only one, yet he already has a net worth of £943.5 million ($1.2 billion). Rza’s enormous income was mostly impacted by his mother, whose net worth has risen to £1.4 billion as a result of her successful Fenty cosmetics line and Savage X Fenty lingerie business, according to Forbes. The amount includes money from Rza’s father, A$AP Rocky, who has made millions from his profitable rap and fashion careers. A$AP Rocky’s net worth is $20 million, bringing their total income to almost £1.5 billion, and their children are likely to get anything they want.
Rihanna and Rocky welcomed their second child, a son named Riot Rose Mayers, in August 2023. Riot Rose is only five months old and has no net worth yet, but he is already well-known as Rihanna’s baby.
