The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Estimated net worth: $12M
Before Denise Richards agreed to let cameras follow her around for the sake of the Housewives, she was used to being on the set of significant films. The bombshell actress starred in several blockbuster hits, including “Wild Things” and “Starship Troopers.” She also played a Bond girl in the 1999 Pierce Brosnan movie, “The World is Not Enough.” She recently gave an interview in which she said she asked her daughter not to watch “Wild Things” until she’s older – no matter how proud Richards may be of her fantastic acting in that movie.
Aside from her extensive list of film credits, she’s also known for her marriage (and divorce) with Hollywood bad boy Charlie Sheen, with whom she has two daughters. She was remarried in 2018 to Aaron Phyphers, who she famously revealed…is very well endowed on an episode of the show, when she was out to lunch talking to Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards. The actress mainly focuses her energy on her youngest daughter, Eloise, these days.
Dorit Kemsley
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Estimated net worth: $50M
Dorit Kemsley earned her degree in communications and moved to Italy to gain some real-world experience working in the fashion industry. After working in a swimwear company for a decade, she moved to New York to open her own business, Dorit, which focused on swim and resort wear for women. But the industry wasn’t the only thing that would be budding in New York…
Dorit met her husband, Paul, when she was living in NYC, and they got married in 2015 in an incredibly lavish ceremony in the city. Now, the couple lives in a gorgeous mansion in Beverly Hills with their children. She recently fell into some bad publicity after adopting a puppy from Lisa Vanderpump’s animal rescue and then abandoning it only to end up back in a kill shelter (when it was rescued from a no-kill, at least.) According to "Radar", Dorit and Paul are facing some severe financial turbulence these days.
Vicki Gunvalson
The Real Housewives of Orange County
Estimated net worth: $7M
Gunvalson is known as the “OG of the OC,” according to Bravo, and for a good reason. After being married for eight years to Michael J. Wolfsmith, things ended in a pretty lousy split. But rather than letting it destroy her, she turned around and built her own fortune in the form of her insurance company, Coto Insurance. Gunvalson is said to be worth an estimated $7 million.
After the whole situation where Gunvalson accused fellow OC housewife Kelly Dodd of being a druggie, her role on the show has been reduced to that of the occasional appearance. But she’s also appeared on several other shows over the years, including "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire," "Watch What Happens: Live and Dr. Phil." She has her website, vickigunvalson.com, where she sells her insurance and links to all of her other ventures and social media pages.
Lisa Rinna
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
Estimated net worth: $8M
"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," Rinna is no stranger to being in the limelight, thanks to her extensive acting career that started when she was in her early 20’s. She played several roles in soap operas, including her most well-known part as Billie Reed in "Days of Our Lives" and as Taylor McBride in "Melrose Place."
But her acting credentials don’t stop with soap operas. Since the beginning of her career on television, she’s appeared on several hit shows, including; "The Middle," "Veronica Mars," "Entourage," "8 Simple Rules for Dating my Teenage Daughter", and "Hannah Montana." Earlier this year, Rinna launched an activewear clothing line venture in partnership with Goldsheep.
Kim Zolciak-Biermann
The Real Housewives of Atlanta
Estimated net worth: $3M
Kim appeared on the show for five years until she received her spin-off, "Don’t Be Tardy for the Wedding," which followed her life around the time she married Falcon’s player Kroy Biermann. She is also a singer, with singles including "Tardy for the Party" and "Google Me."
She stays busy taking care of her six kids, including her 5-year old daughter whom she recently received backlash for putting makeup on, and her 17-year old, Brielle, who created a fake video “discovering cockroaches” in NeNe’s house. The teenager made the video after she heard NeNe talking negatively about her mother. The whole situation pretty much guaranteed that Kim was walking away from RH for good.
