The Real Housewives of Miami
Estimated net worth: $9M
“Miami’s Hottest Chef,” Housewives star Ana Quincoces recently appeared on the 12th season of The Food Network Star, where she got to flaunt her incredible cooking abilities. She has her own website and blog, where she frequently posts recipes and videos of her in the kitchen, making dinner with her family.
One of her more recent concoctions is her famous Skinny Latina Lemon Chicken, which consists of tender chicken with cream and mustard. Her Skinny Latina brand has become so popular that she’s bottled some of her sauces for sale, as well, like her guava and fig barbeque sauce. She has also co-authored a cooking book called “The Versailles Restaurant Cookbook.”
Tamra Judge
The Real Housewives of Orange County
Estimated net worth: $2M
Tamra Judge was born and raised in California, so it’s only natural that she would set up shop and launch her fitness career in her home state. She opened her fitness center, CUT Fitness, in Rancho Santa Margarita, and has been operating it since 2012. Aside from her successful gym, she makes $600,000 for each season of RHOC – contributing to her estimated net worth of nearly $2 million. Judge is the 9th highest paid person on the entirety of the Real Housewives franchise.
But even if she is a super successful entrepreneur, it doesn’t mean everything is sunshine and unicorns. She’s had quite the dramatic past few years, thanks to her teenage son coming into the spotlight for transphobia. Needless to say, she’s had to do some serious damage control. But she’s got even more on her plate these days because rumor has it, she’s got another bun in the oven.

Dorinda Medley
The Real Housewives of New York City
Estimated net worth: $20M
It sure seems as if being a fashion guru is a requirement for making it into the Real Housewives franchise. Medley moved to NYC after college to work for Liz Claiborne and worked her way up in the industry and with major clients. She has since launched her own fashion line called DCL Cashmere.
But Dorina Medley doesn’t have to hustle for her affluent lifestyle, and she chooses to. A lot of her near $20 million net worth comes from her late husband, Richard Medley, a hedge fund manager. She also gets paid a pretty penny for every season that she appears on the show, and she’s recently been teaching 80’s, themed aerobics classes. She has been dating dry-cleaning company CEO John Mahdessian recently.
