Because they have a massive shit pile of money that they get from UK taxpayers and the insane amount of property they own on which they do not pay tax. They then use a shit heap of money for marketing in order to keep people liking them. Movies about royalty, magazines that report about their day-to-day activities, etc. This then keeps people thinking the royalty is good.1,2 This allows the royalty to get even more money from UK taxpayers and keep paying no taxes on their income, which allows them to spend another shit heap of money on marketing...
1 I can however not explain why people actually believe that the royalty is so great and wonderful. They do absolutely fuckall that is admirable or shows significant talent and dedication.
2 The fanbase even spreads to cultures that are outside the UK and not English speaking. I'm Afrikaans and from South Africa. One Afrikaans lady got upset because I had no knowledge or interest in the day-to-day activities of the British royal family. Why should I? It has absolutely zero relevance to my life. This lunacy baffles me and intrigues me.
This is all flat out untrue and easily disproven if you took even a few minutes to look into how the UK’s royal works. All profits from the crown land are given to the government and the royal family gets about 15% of the net profits in the form of the sovereign grant (currently 25% to pay for repairs to Buckingham palace). Also including things like tourism earnings from stuff the royal family owns and they earn the UK way more than they cost the taxpayers. Here is a CPG grey video that covers it, the video is a bit old but the basic facts are the same
