What is Taylor Frankie Paul’s net worth? ‘Bachelorette’ lead to get full paycheck despite show cancelation
Taylor Frankie Paul has ruled headlines in recent years with her controversial antics. Being at the center of controversies has granted her many opportunities and helped her make a bank, according to The Hollywood Reporter. According to the recent update, the reality star will take her entire six-figure paycheck despite her season of 'The Bachelorette' being pulled off three days before airing. It will only add to her impressive net worth. Let's take a look at MomToker's various ventures, ranging from social media deals to reality shows, which have helped her build an envious financial resume within a few years.
As Cosmopolitan reports, the controversial figure has a net worth of $400,000 after expenses, taxes, and overhead. For her turn in 'The Bachelorette', Frankie Paul will reportedly take home around $250,000. However, there is no official confirmation regarding this amount, but it aligns with what previous leads have shared about their salaries. Emily Maynard charged the same amount as a lead in the show's eighth installment. Author Amy Kaufman shared in her book 'Bachelor Nation' that it is "incredibly rare" for someone to fetch less than a six-figure salary. Frankie Paul also reportedly makes a fortune due to her stint on 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.'
Hulu or any other official source has never revealed the individual salaries of the cast. However, as per their own confessions in the show’s sophomore season, they all get paid the same. Frankie Paul once shared, “If anyone has the right to be paid the most, it’s me, and I’ve never even asked for that.” It is hard to argue against the sentiment, as her 2023 arrest reportedly laid the show’s foundation, and her various antics keep it going. Experts looked into the speculated salaries of cast members in other reality shows like ‘The Valley’ and ‘Real Housewives,’ and suggested that the MomTokers, including Frankie Paul, may have made $5,000 per episode for Season 1 or $25,000 for all eight episodes in total, during the show’s first season.
This salary went up after the show became a runaway hit for Hulu. Some reports have also claimed that after two seasons, the cast is being paid differently. Seems like Frankie Paul may have just gone ahead and asked for the hike she mentioned in the sophomore installment. Another major source of income is her social media brand deals. Her large following on TikTok and Instagram has gotten her many lucrative partnerships, according to MARCA. The price tag associated with each deal varies significantly, but it can be assumed that she earns tens of thousands per deal. For some of them, she reportedly fetches around $75,000.
Frankie Paul was brought on board as the next Bachelorette to change the dwindling franchise's fortunes. But the recent turn of events, where video footage featuring a domestic violence incident between her and her then partner, Dakota Mortensen, was made public, could inflict a loss of $30 million-plus loss to ABC, and also hurt her net worth by impacting her influencer career. This specific collaboration may be on its way to souring.
