While many people assume that reality TV stars are raking in the dough, that’s not the case for 90 Day Fiance cast members who reportedly get paid between $500 to $1500 per episode.

This is certainly not enough to pay for the numerous cosmetic surgeries, fancy vacations, and designer outfits that we’ve seen on some of these reality stars.

However, while these cast members don’t get paid a lot to appear on TV, being on a popular show can lead to lucrative business deals and partnerships in the future.

It’’ up to the TLC stars to turn their 15 minutes of fame into money-making ventures and some of the 90 Day Fiance stars have learned the art of doing just that! Others, however, earned their cash before even appearing on the respective shows.

We’ve ranked the eight richest reality TV stars from the 90 Day Fiance franchise and their net worths.

1. David Murphey – $2.5 Million

We knew David Murphey was rolling in the dough the moment we found out just how much money he spent on his Ukrainian “girlfriend” Lana before even seeing her in person. After meeting Lana on a dating website, David instantly fell in love, and throughout their relationship — which spanned seven years — he spent over $300,000 on her.

But where did David get all this money? Well, as it turns out, the 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days star had a great job as a Senior Systems Programmer for Clark County in Nevada before retiring.

David’s job paid him a pretty penny, and according to payscale.com, the average yearly salary for a Senior Systems Programmer starts at $92,578 and can increase to $192,000 annually.

Having reached retirement age, David most likely got a nice pension which explains his $2.5 million estimated net worth.

2. Darcey Silva – $2 million

Darcey Silva loves her designer clothes and cosmetic surgeries and we know those things come with a high price tag. However, with an estimated net worth of $2 million, the Darcey & Stacey star can certainly afford it.

Darcey’s dad Mike Silva is a successful businessman who bought a mansion for Darcey and her twin sister Stacey to live in. It’s not clear if Mike had anything to do with the sisters’ successful clothing line, House of Eleven, which accounts for some of Darcey’s wealth.

After appearing on 90 Day Fiance for several seasons, Darcey’s notoriety led to partnerships with companies such as Flat Tummy Tea and Boombod. Darcey also has her own TLC spinoff show with her sister Stacey which was just renewed for a third season.

The mom of two also brings in money from Cameo and her production company, Eleventh Entertainment.

3. Michael Jessen – $1.5 million

Michael is listed as one of the richest 90 Day Fiance stars with a net worth of $1.5 million.

However, rumors have been floating around that soon after buying the home, Michael stopped making the mortgage payments.

According to Starcasm, the house, which was purchased in 2019, is now in foreclosure. Michael has not addressed this rumor and as far as we know his net worth still stands.
