Not interested in Royal family personally but it’s a fact that many thousands of tourists turned up in London to seeing living royals and where they live, where they go etc… and its also a fact that a large % of those would not have been in London at this time otherwise. As for day to day royals

I would add Prince Andrew into that. Duke of York has directly benefited my business and does a great job as Trade Ambassador. He is massively well regarded around the world and in order to benefit UK business he's had a few beers with a few dodgy characters over the years. From:

I think you'll find they much prefer houses where the queen resides and all of them would give their eye teeth to actually see her. They have nothing to do with our system of government, the queen is the head of state but has no say constitutionally. No need to build pyramids, we have the Royal

Oh dear! The royal family cost a fraction of some of the crap we spend money on as a country. They do attract tourists. Working round there they get in my way almost every day. Its the most famous royal family in world. The fact we haven't chopped their heads off does add something to it.
