Belgian Princess Elisabeth will also refuse her endowment in 2024. Since her 18th birthday, the crown princess has been entitled to an endowment, but it has been refused each time until now. The reason is clear.
As long as Princess Elisabeth is still studying, she will refuse her endowment. A gesture that is certainly appreciated by the Belgian population that spends more than 40 million euros of tax money on the monarchy.
In the Netherlands too, Princess Amalia is refusing her endowment as long as she is studying. A trend among royal houses to create some goodwill among the population.
