US former first children today: Malia Obama is a writer on Donald Glover’s new Amazon series, Drake called Sasha a ‘style popper’ ... could Barron Trump have a career in showbiz too?
- Chelsea Clinton, who attended Stanford and Oxford, worked for McKinsey and wrote the She Persists children’s book series, is reportedly worth US$15 million
- With their dad and grandad in office, Jenna and Barbara Bush practically grew up in the White House – now Jenna is an anchor on The Today Show
Chelsea Clinton
The only child of Bill and Hillary Clinton left the White House to attend prestigious colleges – including Stanford and University College Oxford – and she currently lives in a US$10 million Manhattan flat with her investment banker husband Marc Mezvinsky.
Today she’s known as a successful author and has a series of She Persisted children’s books, among others. But the former first daughter, worth US$15 million according to the New York Post, has raked in cash from a variety of places. She is also a philanthropist on the board of her family’s Clinton Foundation and Clinton Global Initiative.
In 2013 and 2014, Arkansas-born Chelsea earned US$600,000 a year as a commentator on NBC News, where she worked for four years. The Hill reported that Chelsea earned US$9 million on the board of IAC/InterActiveCorp from 2011 to 2020. The global health advocate has held similar positions at the likes of McKinsey & Company, Expedia Group and the Avenue Capital Group.
Jenna Bush Hager
Much like her predecessor Chelsea, Jenna – married to Henry Hager – has also had success as a journalist and author. She started out her TV career as a correspondent on The Today Show in 2009, and a decade later bagged a job as a co-anchor. The mother-of-three regularly gives commentary on political matters and even interviewed her dad recently.
