Britain's under 30s rich list announced as Adele is knocked off the top spot

Britain's under 30 rich list has been updated for 2019 and there's a new ruler at the top.

Ed Sheeran has taken Adele's spot on the list to become the richest British celebrity aged under 30, according to heat Rich List.

Last year, Adele topped the list with an estimated fortune of £147.5m - but she turned 31 in May so can no longer be included.

The annual guide of the UK's richest young stars has revealed that the singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran has nearly doubled his wealth within the last year from an estimated £92m to £170m.

It is believed that the majority of his earnings have come from his two year world-breaking Divided Tour.

Second on the list is Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe with £90m and third is former-One Direction member Harry Styles with £64m.

Stormzy, 26, is the highest new entry at number 14 with an estimated £12m, which has been boosted in part by headlining Glastonbury this summer.

Other new entries include Dua Lipa, 24, (15th with £11.8m), Maisie Williams, 22, (25th with £4.5m) and George Ezra, 26, and Jess Glynne, 30, who are in joint 27th place with an estimated wealth of £4.4m.

The top 10 in the list is:

Ed Sheeran - £170m

Daniel Radcliffe - £90m

Harry Styles - £64m

Emma Watson - £57m

Niall Horan - £55m

Little Mix - £50m

Louis Tomlinson - £46m

Liam Payne - £44m

Cara Delevingne - £40m

Zayn Malik - £38m
