Ashley and Mary-Kate Olsen are best known for playing little tyke Michelle on the ’90s sitcom Full House, but they’re just as famous for being mega-rich (well, and for wearing all black). In 2007, the Olsen twins were featured in Forbes “Richest Women in Entertainment” with an estimated combined net worth of $100 million, and that figure has continued to balloon.
Much of their wealth comes from fashion lines. According to Cosmopolitan, their Dualstar Entertainment Group sold clothing in Walmart in the 2000s, collecting more than $1 billion in sales annually. Their more recent fashion lines — The Row and Elizabeth and James — net between $175 million and $275 million a year in sales, according to the Business of Fashion.
Given their impressive net worth, it’s no surprise that Mary-Kate would want a prenup when she married Olivier Sarkozy in 2015. The French banker also has a sizable net worth — about $70 million. “Her business interests and fortune are protected” by an “ironclad prenup,” a source told Us Weekly.
“This is going to be a very high-profile divorce, and a lot of money is at stake for both sides,” legal expert Rachel Stockman told Entertainment Tonight. “The prenup is certainly going to factor into what happens during the divorce proceedings and what he gets and what she gets.”
