- Kyle Richards, Paris Hilton’s aunt, used the reality TV show to help grow her wealth to US$100 million while Erika Jayne’s net worth plummeted to US$5 million after her divorce

The Real Housewives franchise may have started way back in 2006, but it’s only getting bigger, better and more dramatic, while many of the housewives cast members are only getting richer and richer.
This year, Bravo viewers saw the demise of NYC, the rise of Salt Lake City and a whole lot of scandal in Beverly Hills. But how do the wealths of the different cities’ housewives compare?
Here are the richest Real Housewives of 2021 …
The richest Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, season 11

When it comes to the Real Housewives franchise, it’s without a doubt that the Beverly Hills ladies lead the pack with their lavish and extravagant lifestyles. Since its debut in 2010, the reality show has featured a handful of Los Angeles’ crème de la crème that showed us how to: live in a behemoth of a Gothic mansion (Carlton Gebbia from season four), fly about on a private plane (lady boss Adrienne Maloof), go on an impromptu holiday (Erika Jayne and Lisa Rinna’s infamous Tokyo trip) and obsess over Dolce & Gabbana (looking at you, Dorit Kemsley).
The richest Real Housewives of Beverly Hills … of all time!

Just like the line-up of ladies has changed throughout RHOBH’s 11 seasons, so has the housewives’ wealth.
While scandal-ridden Erika Jayne’s net worth recently plummeted to a paltry US$5 million after her divorce, long-time cast member Kyle Richards has used the reality show to grow her wealth into a US$100 million empire. But many other women have come and gone as cast members on the franchise, and they continue to rake in big bucks to this day.
