With Rishi Sunak succeeding Liz Truss as prime minister in a time of economic uncertainty and a price-of-living crisis people have been interested in Sunak’s financial position. In particular, what he as well as his spouse are worth.

The worth of Sunak has been an issue that Sunak has largely not discussed in particular detail, though Sunak has claimed that he doesn’t believe voters are interested in the cost of the clothes and shoes he donned during his leadership campaign in the spring of this year.

“Values are what is important, what I’m wearing is irrelevant to all of that,” Sunak declared about his suit costing PS3,500.

Although most people know that Sunak is rich since his name was included in this year’s Sunday Times Rich List this year, many are not aware of the amount that the prime minister really is worth, and how much is due to his wife’s family.
