Following the devastating car crash in Paris that took Princess Diana’s life in 1997, her sons, Princes William and Harry, inherited her personal fortune. (£13million fortune and loads of jewellery and wealth.) The grand Althorp Estate, a treasured property in the Spencer family since 1508 and where Diana spent her childhood, is now destined for her nephew Louis Spencer who is the son of Diana’s brother Earl Charles Spencer.

The unexpected heir to Diana’s property typically keeps a low profile and avoids the spotlight. After graduating from the University of Edinburgh, he pursued a career in acting/drama at a school in Chiswick, London. According to Sky News, the young actor has reportedly begun attending trustee meetings to follow the inheritance process.
“He has been to trustees’ meetings when he can. I don’t want to burden him,” Charles Spencer earlier told Telegraph. “It’s a lot. I would be totally relaxed about Kitty inheriting it, but…if I chose Kitty, it would be against all the tradition that goes with Althorp,” he added.
