It goes without saying that by and large, celebrities have lots of money. As a celebrity couple though, that money doubles, triples or grows exponentially – allowing many celebrity couples grow their combined wealth significantly.
At a surface level, celebrities have money due to the various projects they take on, and most celebrities diversify their income into investments after making a name for themselves (as is often the case for individuals with high net worths). Since most celebrities get married to other celebrities, their combined net worth increases significantly.
Let's take a look at the richest celebrity couples ranked, based on their combined net worth.
