What is Marc Daly's net worth? 'RHOA' star Kenya Moore's ex asks her to foot his legal bills
Marc Daly may have become a household name after marrying 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' reality star Kenya Moore, but the shrewd entrepreneur and financial genius was a success long before that. The football lover and restaurant entrepreneur is much more than just the other half of once a hit reality TV pair.
Kenya filed for divorce from Daly in May 2021 after separating from him in 2019. Now that Season 14 of 'The Real Housewives of Atlanta' has begun, Kenya is opening up about her separation from Marc and the custody agreement for their daughter, Brooklyn. Kenya is arranging a birthday tea party for Brooklyn, who is turning three, in the May 15 episode of 'RHOA'. Kenya tells the party planner that she doesn't know if Marc “is going to help with the party” because of their ongoing divorce. "Obviously, I'm going through a divorce," Kenya adds in the clip's interview. She also mentions that she doesn’t expect anything more from him at this point. Kenya then verifies that the divorce is still pending. "So I don't know what he really wants," she says in a flashback to Marlo Hampton, Shereé Whitfield, and Kandi Burruss in the clip. “I want him to sign the paper and leave me alone.” Kenya then discusses Brooklyn's custody, as well as the terms of her and Marc's agreement. With so many new settlements for the now-separated couple, it's natural to wonder how much Marc is worth. Let us have a look at that.

What is Marc Daly's net worth?
According to sources, the 50-year-old is worth an amazing $35 million as a result of his decade-long profession as an investment banker. The businessman currently resides in a home in New York and owns numerous expensive cars. The majority of his wealth would have come from two of his former companies, Citibank (of which he was a Vice President) and Credit Suisse First Boston. Marc, on the other hand, decided to change his career path in recent years, focusing his attention on becoming a restaurateur — and in the process, he met Kenya and became a prominent personality in his own right. He worked in the banking industry for a decade before leaving to become a restaurateur. SoCo, his first restaurant was launched in Brooklyn. Chef Kingsley and mixologist Bryan Smith are among the culinary experts he employed at his southern fusion restaurant. Marc planned the restaurant to cater to blue-collar workers in New York, and it has done well enough for him to catch the attention of one of television's most famous reality stars. Marc is also heavily involved in humanitarian activities, supporting and attending dozens of charity events each year.
What happened between Kenya Moore and Marc Daly?
After four years of marriage, Kenya filed for divorce from her spouse, Marc. In May 2021, the 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' actress filed divorce papers in Fulton County, Georgia. She and her ex-husband had been in a "bonafide state of separation" since September 2019. The actress stated in the lawsuit that the relationship is "irretrievably broken" and cannot be mended. The reality TV actress has also asked for sole physical and legal custody of her and Marc's child, Brooklyn, who turned three in November 2021. Kenya further argued that the parties obtained other joint personal property as a result of their marriage through presents or joint purchases that must be shared equitably, as well as marital debt that must be distributed equitably. Marc responded to Kenya's custody suit in June 2021, demanding joint legal custody of Brooklyn and agreed to let her have primary physical custody. The restaurateur requested that the court divide his real and personal property. He also asked Kenya to foot his legal bills. (The case is still ongoing, and no decision has been made on the motions.) Marc also believes he’s owed a cut of the Georgia home they lived in together — despite Kenya being the one who purchased it.
Marc and Kenya married in June 2017 and welcomed their first child, Brooklyn, in November 2018. They parted for the first time less than a year later, in September 2019. Following their split, things appeared to be getting better for the couple, with Kenya telling Andy Cohen in February 2020 that they were in a good place and trying to straighten things out. Marc, on the other hand, acknowledged the couple's separation in January 2021. Kenya gave an update on her relationship during an interview on 'Watch What Happens Live' with Andy Cohen in March, stating she and Marc are "good." They've since gone on vacation together, taking a family trip to the Bahamas at the end of June and posing for a happy family portrait.
The former Miss USA is presently starring in 'RHOA' Season 14. While her difficult relationship with Marc has been a feature of her storyline in this series, her ex has yet to come on the show.
'RHOA' Season 14 airs every Sunday at 8 pm on Bravo TV.
