One of the prerequisites to getting cast on Bravo's hit reality series- 'Real Housewives' is to be rich and famous. So most of the ladies that are cast on the show were either born into wealth or married rich. However, the same can't be said for 'Real Housewives of Orange County' star Emily Simpson.

Ever since Emily made her big debut on the OG 'Real Housewives' franchise, she made it pretty clear that she wasn't your typical housewife. She revealed on the show, "A lot of women don't have to work. When I throw the attorney thing in there, it's like, 'No, girl, I'm not your typical housewife.'" Well, thanks to her successful career as a copyrights attorney, her passion project of party planning, and finally the star of 'RHOC', helped Emily amass a net worth of an estimated $900,000! However, the road to success wasn't easy for this curvy housewife. Read on to know all about Emily's net worth and what drove her to be the successful person that she is today.

Emily Simpson's early life and education

On the recently aired episode of 'RHOC' Emily opened up about how the absence of her father in her life pushed her to work hard and prove herself to be "worthy", which in turn she hoped would help her gain the validation of her mother. The housewife revealed that her parents divorced when she was only six years old, and ever since then her father wasn't involved in her life. This "abandonment" pushed Emily to work really hard and put herself through college and law school. In a Bravo blog post, Emily shared, "My mother and father divorced when I was 6, and my sister was 3. My dad left my mom for another woman. My mother never recovered from it." She attended the University of Miami, and later enrolled herself at the Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego, Calif. The housewife took up a job as a Spanish teacher to fund her education.

Today even though Emily shares a good relationship with her father it still makes her sad that she missed out on so much while growing up.

Emily's strong drive to prove her worth certainly paid off as the housewife has managed to steadily rack up a net worth of a cool $900,000. Her successful stint as a copyrights attorney definitely helped the housewife's bank balance. While she does enjoy being a lawyer, she also loves party planning. So she later launched her second career as a part-time party planner.This too worked out really well for the housewife as it eventually paved the way to her landing a spot as the housewife on 'RHOC'. Even though Emily's salary as a housewife hasn't been made public, according to rumors she makes about $20,000 per episode!

As her popularity continues to soar, we are sure Emily's bank balance too will continue its upward trajectory.
