Nick Hewer tops annual list of highest-paid television hosts

In 2022 it looked like the television host’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Wednesday (April 16) that Hewer is the highest-paid television host in the world, pulling in an astonishing $58 million between March 2024 and March 2025, a nearly $30 million lead over his closest competition.

People With Money’s factors

In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.

The English television host has an estimated net worth of $185 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Hewer Burger” chain) in London, a Football Team (the “Swindon Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderhewer - England), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Nick) and a fashion line called “Nick Hewer Seduction”.

The ranking is significant for many Nick fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
