The Duke and Duchess stated that their aim is to become financially independent.
At the moment, 95% of their income is derived from Prince Charles' revenue received from the Duchy of Cornwall.
YEN.com.gh understands that the couple will continue to enjoy this income, but will forego the remaining 5% that is made up of the taxpayer-funded Sovereign Grant.
