But is this just a publicity stunt or a genuine attempt to distance himself from the charity?
Meanwhile, Prince William and his wife, Catherine, are basking in the glory of their philanthropic endeavors. Their Royal Foundation has just released its latest financial report, showcasing an astonishing 44% increase in income, with £12.2 million raised last year alone!

But what about Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan? Their Archewell Foundation is still flying under the radar, with its 2024 income figures yet to be released. In comparison, William and Catherine's Earthshot Prize has raked in an impressive £23.5 million, a whopping 68% increase from the previous year.
