Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother died 22 years ago this week, on March 30, 2002—at the impressive age of 101 years old. A full life lived, the beloved Queen Mother left a large chunk of her fortune to be split between her great-grandchildren, including Prince William and Prince Harry—but thanks to some foresight on her part, Harry got significantly more of an inheritance payout than his older brother for one key reason.
When it came to her great-grandchildren, the Queen Mother “had thought about their financial futures long before she died,” The Mirror reports. “It’s said that she put a large amount of her money into a trust fund for all her great-grandchildren. But Prince Harry got more than his brother William from the Queen Mother for an important reason.”
