Royals Who Have Side Hustles To Make More Money

With the Greek monarchy abolished, Prince Nikolaos was essentially free to pursue several side jobs. After graduating from college, the royal decided to take a small job as a production assistant at Fox News where he used a pseudonym to make sure he didn’t get recognized or receive any preferential treatment. For a time, it worked until photos of Prince Nikolaos attending the royal wedding of his brother Pavlos, Crown Prince of Greece in 1995 surfaced. While the gig only lasted for two years, the prince continues to treasure the experience, telling Insider, “I learned a lot, it was one of my favorite jobs. The worst paid job I’ve ever had in my life, but a very rewarding one.”

Meanwhile, Prince Nikolaos has since pursued photography, staging exhibitions in London, Australia, Spain, Qatar, and Greece where he showcased his photos of nature and landscapes. For instance, his exhibit at the London Design Biennale 2021 featured Greek olive trees, which the prince believes are just as resilient as Greek people.
