Training and qualifications provider mocked up CVs for different royals to try and understand how they would fare in the job market.

Unsurprisingly, Meghan Markle came out on top thanks to her acting experience, while Prince Harry would likely earn around £21k as a charity worker - however, with the Duke's army experience this could be boosted towards £55k if he worked his way up towards a major.

Future Queen Consort, Kate Middleton could be on salary of £23k - taking into account her work experience before marrying Prince William.

Meanwhile, the Duchess of Cornwall's limited experience as a part-time secretary would likely see her on a salary of just £17,500.

With an IMDb profile like Meghan's, she could pick up where she left off in a successful and lucrative acting career.

With Suits and CSI: Miami under her belt, as well as other smaller roles, she could be making £350,000 per year - which according to knownetworth.com, is approximately what she was raking in per year from Suits, other endorsements and sponsorships.

Both involved in charity work, if Harry and Wills were not members of the royal family, they would likely only make around £21,000 per year in an entry-level charity role.

They could boost this by picking up their army careers again, with captains making £42k while majors earn as much as £55k per annum.

Kate Middleton, £23k

With this in mind, if she picked up her career again now, she'd likely be on a salary of £23k in a marketing role, but with Kate's experience, she could certainly climb the ladder to more senior positions in the future.

Sophie, Countess of Wessex, £40k
