The Real Housewives Of New York has become a reality TV staple ever since its debut back in 2008. The series has seen countless housewives walk in and out of the Bravo doors, including Bethenny Frankel, Dorinda Medley, and Carole Radziwill, all of whom gave rise to the successful show.
While the Bravo series has managed to make it all the way to season 13, it seems as if fans are no longer loving it the way they once did. Not only did RHONY come to a disappointing end, but the network completely scrapped any plans of a season 13 reunion. Yikes!
Fans are now wondering if the show will return to Bravo following its lowest season yet, and it's not looking too good. Although ratings are down, one thing still remains true when it comes to the New York ladies, they are still rich! With Eboni K. Williams and Leah McSweeney being recent additions to the cast, fans wonder who comes out on top when it comes to the richest RHONY star.
7 Eboni K. Williams - Net Worth $3 Million
Eboni K. Williams graced our screens for the very first time this season of RHONY. Williams broke barriers becoming the first Black housewife to join the series.
The star made a name for herself as a television host, and attorney, allowing her to amass a net worth of $3 million. While she joined during the lowest-rated season, it's clear Eboni will be just fine after snagging a spot temporarily co-hosting The View, and later revealing that she is gunning for a full-time spot.
6 Leah McSweeney - Net Worth $3.5 Million
Leah McSweeney joined the cast of RHONY last season, giving her fashion label, Married To The Mob, a major plug throughout the series. During her return, it seemed as if Leah and season newbie, Eboni K. Williams, got on the best, however, it was recently revealed that during the release party for David Quinn's newest Housewives book, Not All Diamonds And Rosé, Leah, Ramona and Luann had made a pact to leave when Eboni arrived. Big yikes!
While fans are now feeling iffy over her involvement on RHONY, Leah has still managed to do well for herself, so much that she's worth $3.5 million.
5 Bershawn Shaw - Net Worth $5 Million
Bershawn Shaw made headlines this season of RHONY after debuting in her "friend of" role. While fans wished she was a full-time cast member, it's evident Shaw is too busy to have committed to the show full-time.
When she isn't appearing on our screens, Bershawn is acting. The star is also a renowned business coach and motivational speaker, skills that have allowed her to amass an impressive net worth of $5 million.
4 Sonja Morgan - Net Worth $8 Million
Sonja Morgan has become a staple on the Real Housewives of New York City following her debut on the series back in its third season. Morgan was previously married to John Adams Morgan, anf she received a rather decent settlement following their split in 2006.
Despite her many financial woes, which include bankruptcy and having to sell her New York City townhouse, Sonja Morgan has still managed to do well for herself, so much that she's worth $8 million. Morgan signed a deal with Century 21 back in 2019 selling her own collection, which certainly did well in stores prior to the pandemic hitting.
3 Heather Thomson - Net Worth $10 Million
Heather Thomson is no stranger to the spotlight after having appeared on a handful of seasons of RHONY, only to return this past season as a "friend of". While the Housewives franchise has certainly done wonders for Thomson, she reached financial success far before she was on the show.
Heather works in the fashion industry, designing, buying, and distributing, all while having created her very own nutrition business, Nutritionary. Heather has done very well for herself, amassing a net worth of $10 million! Additionally, Thomson is receiving backlash at the moment following her interview with David Quinn for his new book Not All Diamonds And Rosé after disclosing a rather private moment she once shared with former co-star, Sonja Morgan.
2 Ramona Singer - Net Worth $18 Million
Ramona Singer's RHONY salary stands at a reported $500,000 per season, which is quite an impressive paycheck. Prior to her time on The Real Housewives, Ramona operated her very own resale company and jewelry line alongside her ex-husband, Mario Singer.
Due to her ongoing success on the series, and being the only remaining original housewife to have served full-time on each and every season of RHONY, Ramona Singer has managed to amass a net worth of $18 million.
1 Luann De Lesseps - Net Worth $25 Million
Luann de Lesseps takes the win when it comes to RHONY housewife with the highest net worth. The cabaret star is worth a whopping $25 million, which is said to have come from a major settlement received from her ex-husband. Count Alexander de Lesseps.
Considering Luann's ex-husband has ties to the construction of the Suez Canal, it's no surprise that he's worth an impressive $50 million, which Luann got a good chunk of following their split in 2009. In addition to the settlement, Lu has also made quite the coin being a Real Housewives star for over a decade, all while becoming a cabaret star in her own right.
