As reported by GB News<\/a>, the estate \u2013 which is made up of homes, farms, commercial premises and shops – provides a hefty income for The Prince of Wales<\/a>, which is believed to be around \u00a320million each year.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Prince William<\/a> inherited the estate when his father King Charles became King, with the estate having always been intended to provide funds for heirs to the throne.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Duchy estate<\/a> was created in 1337 by Edward III for his son and heir Prince Edward.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Prince William became the 24th Duke of Cornwall on The King’s accession in 2023.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

It is believed William visits the estate<\/a>, which spans across 130,000 to 140,000 acres, a lot, and cares about those who live and work on it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In regard to the income tax Prince William pays, a Kensington Palace spokesman said: “The Prince of Wales pays the top rate of income and capital gains tax on all his personal income, including receipts from the Duchy.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

GB News reports that the prince is allowed to deduct official expenditure before calculating his income tax contribution.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
