Prince Harry's 10m pound gift on 30th birthday
August 31, 2014  15:39
Britain's Prince Harry is set for a 10 million pound gift on his 30th birthday next month as his share of mother Princess Diana's inheritance. When Diana, Princess of Wales, died in Paris in 1997, her will stipulated that a share of her fortune should go to her two sons when they each turned 25. The executors, however, later decided, to change the age to 30.

For the past five years, Harry has been able to access the interest on his mother's fortune but he will be able to obtain his full entitlement only on his birthday on September 15, The Sunday Times said.

The fourth in line to Britain's throne, who lives in Nottingham Cottage in Kensington Palace, is paid a salary from the army of about 40,000 pound a year and has access to the 2 million pound left to him by his great grandmother Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother.
