Kate Hudson
Net Worth: $80 million Source: Goldie Hawn No need for an introduction for this Hollywood babe! Kate Hudson, the Oscar-nominated actress, and daughter of legend Goldie Hawn are well, set to inherit a nice little sum from mother dearest. But hey, we’re not counting too closely here – with a stepfather in Kurt Russell, and her own fortune amassed over the years, we’re really not worried about her financials.
Hudson first started acting at the tender age of eleven, appearing on stage in fact! From the Santa Monica Playhouse, well, the world was her oyster and went on over to film work in the 1998 film Desert Blue. Fast forward a little while and we come to her breakthrough role, Almost Famous. It was her role as the flirtatious band groupie Penny Lane that won her a Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination! We just love her in How To Lose a Guy In Ten Days opposite Matthew McConaughey though! She’s also appeared in Fool’s Gold, My Best Friend’s Girl and Bride Wars, among others. To keep the income streaming in, Hudson also founded her own fashion activewear label, Fabletics.
Kyra Sedgwick
Net Worth: $16 million Source: Robert Sedgwick Kyra Sedgwick just has one of those faces – you’ve seen her, you know her face, but you may not know her name! Apologies to the fans! But we’re just sayin’ okay. The Golden Globe award winner sure has been in a fair few TV shows and films, but we have a feeling you didn’t know she was born into money. She’s the daughter of an extremely successful venture capitalist, Henry Dwight Sedgwick V. Quite the name too eh? Adding to that wealth, Sedgwick is actually married to Hollywood star Kevin Bacon! Yes, Mr. Footloose himself!
Sedgwick first made waves in Hollywood as a teenager, starting out her career at 16, on the show Another World. This debut was successful and led to her being cast in films including Phenomenon, Singles and Heart and Souls. She also co-starred alongside Tom Cruise in the Oscar-nominated Vietnam War film Born on the Fourth of July. But perhaps her most famous role is in the TNT series The Closer. This role garnered Sedgwick much critical acclaim, as well as a number of Golden Globe and SAG award nominations! Okay and before we forget, for you Brooklyn 99’ers, she’s of course Holt’s nemesis, the notorious, antagonistic Madeline Wuntch! If you’re not caught up on her and Holt’s ongoing feud, you are missing out. Get to it
Dakota Johnson
Net Worth: $14 million Source: Don Johnson Next up is the very girl-next-door but also very-not (ahem Anastasia Steele), Miss Dakota Johnson. The daughter of screen legends Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith, it’s safe to say that acting is in the blood! Born in Austin, Texas, a young Dakota was quickly scouted (well that was bound to happen with star parents) as a model, before moving into film, following in her parents’ footsteps. Making her debut in 2010, you would’ve seen her in a few films!
Most notably, however, is her role as Anastasia Steele, the protagonist in the book-turned-film series Fifty Shades of Grey. The controversial role saw Johnson strip down for the part, owing to the nature of the lewd content. But hey, if you’re going to have a breakthrough role, it doesn’t get better than this! In fact, for her role as the salacious (well, she didn’t start out that way, but Mr. Grey certainly got that out of her!) Ms. Steele, she won the People’s Choice Award, as well as being nominated for the BAFTA Award for Rising Stars. Other film roles for Johnson include Suspiria, The Social Network, 21 Jump Street, Wounds and The Peanut Butter Falcon. With her dramatic prowess, Johnson has been fortunate for being cast in lots of dramas, as well as a few rom coms – but we’re sure we’ll see a lot more of Johnson in the coming years!
Olivia Wilde
Net Worth: $20 million Source: Andrew Cockburn Not that we’re focusing on looks here, but it’s hard to go past this gorgeous blue-eyed brunette. Olivia Wilde is not only a stunning actress, but she’s also set to inherit quite a little bit of cash! Just recently, in fact, she produced the film Booksmart which is out in cinemas now! Her first film ever, the NYC-born Wilde has discovered quite a talent.
An attendee of the Gaiety School of Acting in Dublin, the actress first got her acting start in television. Starring opposite House himself, she debuted on the hit series House, playing Dr. Hadley, or as you may remember her “Thirteen.” Following on from her breakout role, she was snatched up for the silver screen, with roles in films such as Conversations with Other Women, Tron: Legacy, Butter, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, The Lazarus Effect, Rush and more. With regards to inheriting $$$, she’s the daughter of two journalists, and as such, many have noted that she has a “strong journalistic streak” and is “really critical and analytical.” Her paternal Scottish ancestors were of the upper class, and perhaps money has trickled down from there! But it doesn’t seem that Wilde needs it, now with her partner Jason Sudeikis and with a producing talent very clear, she won’t need any family money!
Chloe Green
Net Worth: $4.9 billion Source: TopShop Imagine not having to pay for clothes. Well, that’s not a dream, it’s a reality for Chloe Green. The daughter of Sir Phillip Green, the CEO of fashion company TopShop, Green must have an amazing wardrobe! But let’s be real – she won’t be wasting her time on faux-leather and polyester: she’s going to be head to toe in the real stuff and in Balenciaga or Gucci or Chanel or whatever. Duh. Most recently, Green has been in and out of the news for her relationship with a former felon, Jeremy Meeks. Facebook (basically all of the social media) went wild when images emerged of the so-called “hot” felon, with his tan skin and blue eyes. Police posted his mugshot after his arrest in 2014 during a gang sweep and well, he went viral. It’s one thing to go viral for your looks, and another to be a felon and then end up dating a billionaire. Same. So apart from her uh… questionable choice in boyfriends, Green is famous for appearing on the reality show Made in Chelsea.
Her father, Phillip is also the head of Arcadia Group, which owns TopShop alongside other companies and brands. Due to her father’s wealth, she’s able to lead an exorbitant lifestyle, which she flashes openly on social media. Like you know, sunbathing in designer swimwear on her enormous yacht, Lionchase. But now that the “likes” have disappeared from Instagram, we wonder what’s going to happen now?!
