Okay, so we fully understand how using the word “poorer” to describe the royal family could cause the English language to collapse on itself, but try to think of it as a relative term.

After all, the royal family just aren’t like us. But from the wannabe model to the freelance writer to the Olympic medalist, we’re going to take a carriage ride with a few royal family members who get by practically paycheck to paycheck… again, in royal terms, not like the rest of us.

How does Viscount Severn’s financial situation differ from other members of the Royal Family?

The Royal Family is known for their lavish lifestyles and incredible wealth. However, not all members of the British monarchy are as financially stable as you may assume. In this article, we will explore some of the Royal Family members who are poorer than you thought.

Firstly, let’s look at Princess Eugenie. Despite being a member of the Royal Family, she works as an associate director for an art gallery in London. This is in contrast to her sister, Princess Beatrice, who works in finance. Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, recently moved into Ivy Cottage, a modest two-bedroom house located inside the grounds of Kensington Palace. Although this may seem luxurious to the average person, it is a far cry from the palaces and castles other members of the Royal Family call home.

Another Royal Family member who may surprise you with their financial situation is Viscount Severn. The son of the Earl and Countess of Wessex, Viscount Severn is only eleventh in line to the throne. Due to this, he is not supported by the Sovereign Grant, which finances the official duties of the senior members of the Royal Family. Instead, his family pays for his expenses, with his mother revealing in an interview that she shops at high-street stores for his clothing.

Furthermore, Princess Alexandra, The Honourable Lady Ogilvy, is a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II and is known for her charitable work. Despite this, she lives in a small flat located in St. James’s Palace. Although her net worth is estimated at around £23 million ($31 million), most of her wealth is tied up in art, jewellery and property assets.

Finally, we have Peter Phillips, the eldest grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II. Although he does not carry out any official duties for the Royal Family, he has worked in the corporate sector and has recently launched his own sports and entertainment agency. Despite this, he reportedly had to sell his £500,000 ($680,000) Gloucestershire mansion after his divorce from his wife, Autumn.

In conclusion, while the Royal Family is generally associated with immense wealth and privilege, there are some members who are not as financially stable as we may assume. Princess Eugenie, Viscount Severn, Princess Alexandra, and Peter Phillips are just a few examples of Royal Family members who lead more modest lifestyles than their peers. It goes to show that, despite their royal status, they are not immune to financial struggles or the ups-and-downs of life.
