The Chase star Bradley Walsh's fortune revealed as his income rockets to staggering sum | The Sun

BRADLEY Walsh’s huge fortune has been revealed, with The Chase star’s income rocketing to staggering sums.

The TV legend, 62, is thought to be one of the UK's highest paid hosts and recent figures certainly show that.


Bradley earned a huge sum of £2,639,174 over the past year, with his company, Wingit Productions, now in £14,997,581 profit with £11,985,630 ready cash in the bank.

In 2020, the company, which he owns with wife Donna Derby, was worth £12,358,407, and the star opted to take out a directors advance of £816, 833 in 2021.

Bradley also has a property company, named Barnstormer Holdings Ltd, which has £191,688 in reserves and £1,868,867 in total assets.

Bradley’s earnings surpass Ant and Dec and Dermot O'Leary as he is thought to be one of the UK's highest-paid TV hosts.

In 2018 it was shared that he had earned £9.2million in the previous two years.

This is taking into account his earnings as a presenter, his portfolio of properties, his album sales and his previous earnings as a footballer.

Bradley bagged a stint presenting the National Lottery on BBC One in 1994 as his first TV job.

Nowadays he's mostly seen on TV presenting The Chase.

As well as hosting a variety of TV shows from Keep It In The Family to Tonight At The Palladium, Bradley is just as familiar for his acting.
