The ladies on the Real Housewives reality franchise definitely spend a lot of money on clothing, vacations, and fancy dinners out. It's easy for us to assume that they have super high net worths and that their hefty bank accounts allow them to lead these fabulous lifestyles.
There may be reality TV stars who fake their wealth, but that's not the case with the cast members of The Real Housewives of New York. Even people who only appeared for a single season have accumulated quite a lot of wealth over the years. While some own successful businesses and others just married up, almost every member of the cast has found a way to hit the million-dollar mark. Curious about the net worths of these famous women? Keep reading to find out.
16 Jules Wainstein Has The Lowest Net Worth With $1.5 Million
Jules Wainstein has a $1.5 net worth, which is the lowest of any cast member who has appeared on the show.

15 Alex McCord's Only Got $2 Million
Alex McCord's got a $2 million net worth. That seems pretty low when we think about it, especially since when Alex and her hubby Simon appeared in the early seasons of the show, they were throwing some serious money around. They would always go shopping and if the bill was thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars, they really didn't care at all.
14 Newcomer Leah McSweeney Has $2.4 Million
According to Distractify, Leah McSweeney has a net worth of $2.4 million.
We don't know a ton about Leah yet since she's new to the show and this is her first season, but we do know that she has an adorable daughter named Kiki and the two of them do everything together. We're looking forward to see how Leah fares this season.
13 Former Housewife Cindy Barshop's Net Worth Is $6 Million
Cindy Barshop isn't a super familiar face for RHONY fans as she isn't on the show anymore, but she was in the fourth season, and we might remember her from back then.
Cindy has a net worth of $6 million, which might not be as high as some others, but hey, we would be totally fine with having this much cash in the bank.
12 RHONY Staple Sonja Morgan Has $8 Million
Celebrity Net Worth puts Sonja Morgan's net worth at $8 million. This is about what many fans would expect since she always mentions her various businesses on the show, and we know that she recently sold her townhouse and made some money from that. She has also been on the series from the beginning, so she's been earning a regular salary.
11 Heather Thomson, Who Owned A Shapewear Line, Has $10 Million
Heather Thomson owned a shapewear line back in the day and that's something that she often talked about on the show.
How much money does Heather have? Celebrity Net Worth says that it's $10 million for the former housewife.
10 It's $18 Million For Pinot Grigio Lover Ramona Singer

5 Cabaret Fan LuAnn De Lesseps Has $25 Million
In recent seasons of RHONY, Luann has become totally obsessed with cabaret (and some of the other ladies haven't had the nicest things to say about it).
It looks like this cabaret fan has some real money in the bank, though, so it's totally working out for her: according to Celebrity Net Worth, Luann's net worth is $25 million.
4 Bethenny's Ex-BFF Jill Zarin's Net Worth Is $35 Million
According to Celebrity Net Worth, Jill Zarin has a net worth of $35 million. She was on the show after her husband Bobby passed away and she and Bethenny Frankel actually spoke to each other.
