The past year has been a tumultuous one for the royal family. King Charles III and Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, have been diagnosed with cancer.
But the Duke, who lives in California, is estranged from his brother Prince William and faces a strained relationship with King Charles.
"I was worried about the 30s, I'm excited about the 40s," Prince Harry recently told the BBC, adding that becoming a father has given him a "fresh perspective on life."
- Being a father is one of the greatest joys in life and it only further motivated me to make this world a better place - he added.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, five-year-old Prince Archie and three-year-old Princess Lilibeth live in the celebrity enclave of Montecito, near Santa Barbara, on the west coast of the United States.
Harry receives a large inheritance today. On his account they will "lie down" slightly more than nine million euros one the royal fund. It is about a fund established by his late great-grandmother, mother of Queen Elizabeth II. One of the conditions for Harry to get his share was to fill up 40 years.
The Queen Mother is thought to have set aside approx 19 million pounds in a fund for his great-grandchildren, a sum which in 1994 was about two-thirds of her wealth.
