Carole Radziwill's Net Worth: How Rich Is The Former Real Housewife?

The net worth of one former and unforgettable cast member of The Real Housewives of New York City is going to shock you more than a drag out fight between the ladies for seemingly no reason. Carole Radziwill left the popular reality TV show after season 10 according to Bravo. The former esteemed journalist — who won both an Emmy and a Peabody award for her work per Celebrity Net Worth — was previously married to Anthony Radziwill, who is JFK Jr.'s cousin (via Good Housekeeping). Sadly, Anthony passed away in 1999 from cancer. 

What many people may not know is that he was also a real-life Prince, the son of Stanislaw Radziwill the Royal Scion of Poland. The 56-year-old has had a very interesting life, and well before her stint as a Real Housewife. So how much can Radziwill claim as her personal fortune today? Let's just say it's double what her former co-star Luann de Lesseps is worth (via Women's Health).

Between the sales of her memoir, What Remains: A Memoir of Fate, Friendship, and Love — which is on The New York Times Bestseller list, according to Bustle, and Radziwill's other tomes, including The Widow's Guide to Sex and Dating, she is sure to be doing just fine. But remember, the former reality star is also a princess by marriage, and may have inherited a decent sum of money from her husband. It's important to stress Radziwill enjoyed much acclaim during her career as a journalist, long before she technically became royalty.

Meanwhile, according to Cheat Sheet, Radziwill could have been making up to $500,000 per season on the RHONY. All told, the outspoken star is now reportedly worth a whopping $50 million. Guess she can afford to live the good life, which includes $52 face masks, $250 light stimulation at-home facials, $240 foundation and concealer, and a $90 tee-shirt (via NY Magazine).
