Who Is The Richest Housewife From Real Housewives Of Orange County?

There is a lot of wealth surrounding the Orange County Housewives. In fact, mostly all of them can rightfully call themselves millionaires (via Slice). But the richest OC Housewife is actually the newest addition to the franchise — Elizabeth Vargas. According to Monsters & Critics, Vargas is worth about $30 million, putting her ahead of the others by about $10 million.

Vargas, who had a tumultuous childhood, earned her wealth by marrying mega-millionaire Bernt Bodal, who according to Meaww, she met in college. The couple divorced in 2017, a storyline we see playing out in the previous season of "Real Housewives of Orange County." Bordal is the CEO of American Seafood and is said to be worth about $200 million. But Vargas also makes money on her own. The Housewife has her own online market company called Edge music and has recently created Vargas Vodka.

While the newcomer takes the top spot, OG Housewives don't fall too far behind. Shannon Beador is said to be worth about $20 million, Kelly Dodd's net worth is about $10 million, and Braunwyn Windam-Burke is worth about $3 million.
