Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s departure from royal duties offered them independence, yet it came at a steep, intergenerational price. By stepping back from palace life, they did more than turn a page; they effectively drew boundaries around the world their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, might have inhabited. With the crown set to transfer to Prince William, the Sussex children face a future filled with ambiguity and challenges, their connection to centuries of tradition muted. However, there is something the Sussexes' children will inherit.

With broken royal bonds, HRH title in question, what royal inheritance can Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet carry, and which pieces of tradition, privilege, or legacy will remain within their reach?

Following reports that Prince Harry was financially cut off from the royal family, he could still be entitled to a share of £8 million ($10.5 million) with his 40th birthday last year, according to The Times. Historical coverage from The Guardian and the BBC provides context, yet no public records confirm the Trust Fund’s details. Meghan Markle inherited several treasures from Princess Diana, including engagement ring diamonds, the emerald-cut aquamarine cocktail ring, and butterfly earrings, all of which will eventually pass to Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, alongside their father’s earnings.

Beyond the engagement rings, aquamarine cocktail ring, and butterfly earrings, Meghan Markle also inherited Princess Diana’s gold Cartier Love bangle, Juste Un Clou collar, Tank Française watch, and gold bracelet. These cherished items, combined with Prince Harry’s earnings and royal entitlements, will be passed on to Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. Celebrity net worth trackers estimate each child’s worth at approximately $5 million to $10 million, reflecting trust funds, gifts, and inheritances rather than cash held in the bank. The Duchess has also laid the foundations for Princess Lilibet’s future, setting the stage for the next chapter in her life.

Meghan Markle, always graceful under the spotlight, teased a surprising glimpse into the future, revealing a potential business venture alongside Princess Lilibet that could blend royal legacy with modern ambition.

Meghan Markle offered a rare window into her family life in an interview with Aspire by Emma Grede, showing how Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet tend a small farmer's market stand in Montecito. More than play, it serves as a gentle introduction to real-world skills and business for Princess Lilibet. Through planting, counting, and sharing with neighbors, the children learn patience, gratitude, and the valuable lesson that, as the former Suits star puts it, "there’s a cost and a price for things."

Meghan Markle emphasized the importance of teaching children, especially those born into privilege, the value of what surrounds them. She believes that, just as manners are instilled early, responsibility and appreciation must also be learned from a young age. She also expressed her bold dream with Princess Lilibet, showing how she and Prince Harry aim to raise their children grounded and mindful. Despite Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet not growing up within the royal family, their inheritance will still pass to them through the Duke and Duchess.
