Throughout his years, Prince Philip was able to amass a sizable fortune. In fact, Celebrity Net Worth estimates his personal worth at around $30 million.
The Duke of Edinburgh, due to his marriage to the Queen, spent many years in the employ of the British Parliament, and the Sovereign Grant Act of 2011 saw his salary rise to nearly $500,000 a year. He continued to receive that amount until he stepped down from his duties in 2017 at 96 years old, as per Evening Standard.
As Cheat Sheet reports, Prince Phillip also earns money from private estate Duchy of Lancaster. The site also notes that he and Queen Elizabeth have a number of stocks, as well as an undoubtedly pricey art collection.
Besides Prince Philip's work alongside Queen Elizabeth II for over 60 years, he is also known for his tireless charitable work. In England in the 1950s, young men finished school at 15 and entered the military at age 18, and in 1954, Prince Philip had the idea to start a program that would foster young people's growth in those gap years. This led to the creation of the Duke of Edinburgh Award which officially launched in 1956, as per the award's website. Millions of young people were helped through the award program, and eventually the program reached people in over 130 countries.
