Royalty breeds kings and queens, but most importantly, it breeds princesses who are celebrated almost as much as their parents. Princesses are people of synonymous with beauty, power and wealth. They are a dignified lot who have been exalted above mere mortals right from the beginning of time.
However, gone are the days when the distinguishing feature of every princess is just beauty. Even though beauty matters, the dignity of their wealth and how they use it matters even more now. It would be safe to say that the true mark of royalty these days is wealth, wealth and more wealth. So instead of telling you how beautiful princesses are, we bring you a list of the richest Princesses in the world.
These Princesses have distinguished themselves in making wealth and using it to better the lives of others while still swimming in it. Everything about them radiates money, from the designer clothes they wear to their diamond jewelry, to their expensive vacations and the expensive homes they live in. Read on to see the world’s ten Wealthiest Princesses and what they are worth.
