Here's How Kendra Wilkinson Amassed Her $6 Million Net Worth

Posted by Martina Birk on Saturday, September 28, 2024

Kendra Wilkinson is famous for a few reasons. First, she started out in Hugh Hefner's spotlight as one of his girlfriends. She even appeared on a reality series between 2004 and 2009 as one of many blonde bombshells who hung out at the Playboy Mansion.

But then, after meeting her future husband (Hank Baskett), Kendra left Hugh in the dust. That was in 2009, of course, and these days, Kendra and Hank have since welcomed two children, had a very public breakup, and finalized their divorce noted People.

But what fans really want to know about Kendra Wilkinson is how she amassed her $6M net worth.

Did Hugh Hefner leave Kendra a ton of cash when he passed away? Did her divorce from Hank result in a big payout? Or is the Playboy model turned reality TV star making her own cash?

Unfortunately for Kendra, she wasn't in Hugh Hefner's will when the Playboy magnate passed away in 2017. Still, that didn't mean she was on the outs with Hefner; when she and Hank wed in 2009, the event took place at the Playboy Mansion.

Of course, fans speculate that perhaps there was some quiet cash set aside for all Hugh's former GFs. With all the strange facts surrounding the Mansion, it wouldn't surprise anyone that there was a plan in place to provide for all the ladies.

Upon the couple's divorce in 2018, the pair split their property and agreed to share custody of their kids, Hank IV and Alijah. No word on the specific amounts of that property, though.

And as Celebrity Net Worth confirms, Kendra's worth about $6 million today, due to a combination of reality show appearances, brand endorsements, and questionable film sales.

Yep, Celebrity Net Worth explained that in 2010, an awkward tape of Kendra and a former boyfriend surfaced. While Kendra initially fought the release of the tape, she eventually made a deal that netted her $680K for permission to publicize the footage.

But what about the rest of her wealth?

Kendra's other income-producing ventures are far tamer than that uncomfortable video tape. She's starred on two of her own reality shows, 'Kendra' and 'Kendra on Top.' But the leading lady also appeared on other shows like 'Celebrity Wife Swap' and even 'Dancing with the Stars.' She may not be one of the highest net worth champions, but fans did love Kendra's appearance on 'DWTS.'

Further, Kendra has also ventured into the world of celebrity brand endorsements. She's partnered with brands like Teami, Shoedazzle, and even Claire's (yes, the store is still around!).

So, what's up next for Kendra in terms of career moves? The single lady recently passed her California real estate exam. No doubt, she'll soon be moving high-priced properties for other celebs and earning commissions to match.

And who knows, maybe next year, her net worth will be a few million higher.
