What Is Ashley Roberts’ Net Worth?
From her singing career and TV appearances, Ashley Roberts has a net worth of £1.2 million.
The Early Years Of Ashley Roberts
Before we start talking about how she earnt her net worth, let’s look more closely at the early life of Ashley Allyn Roberts.
Roberts was born the 14th of September, 1981. She was born in Phoenix, Arizona, in the United States of America.
Her mother Peggy is a Pilates instructor. But you may be more familiar with Pat. Pat Roberts, father of Ashley Roberts, was once a drummer for the Mamas and Papas.
His role in the industry would have an important influence on a young Roberts. She began dancing at just three years old. Oh, and she also found her voice at the tender age of 8.
Making the most of her high school holidays, Roberts visited California to study modern dance. And she must have liked it! At the age of just 19, she moved to Los Angeles.
How Ashley Started To Be “The Ashley”
It didn’t take Ashley Roberts long to start earning her net worth. The American dancer quickly appeared in several popular music videos.
Then, just 6 months after her move, she auditioned for a role with the Pussycat Dolls.
Now, the Pussycat Dolls at that time were a little different! In fact, they were more a burlesque group than a pop group.
But as you already know, their fame grew. Once local music producers Iovine and Fair got in touch, they became a pop music group.
The Pussycat Dolls
In 2005, the new-look girl group released PCD. It was an album which would skyrocket the group to fame. Number one single “Don’t Cha” was an international hit.
But the dream wouldn’t last forever. Roberts left the group in 2010, and penned a letter to her fans to say so:
“Yes, I have left the Pussycat Dolls. I love you all sooo much!!! I am so grateful to have the love and support of all of you. It was an amazing ride and I learned so much! You all mean the world to me and I’m excited to take you all on a new adventure. An adventure full of creativity, inspiration, learning, growing and lots of fun.”
With 54 million records sold, they were an incredibly successful girl group. Ashley Roberts added to her net worth significantly. Turns out there’s money in the music industry.
Ashley Roberts And Her Net Worth
Ashley Roberts is believed to have a net worth of around £1.2 million. Not bad when you can get it, right?
In the beginning, that was thanks to her role as a Pussycat Doll. But things weren’t always as rosy as they seemed. She told the Independent about the group’s relationship with Nicole Scherzinger:
“We were always told it was very much Nicole’s project. They said that we were the football team, and she was the quarterback. You know, we weren’t allowed to talk in interviews. We weren’t even allowed in the studio sometimes.”
A Solo Career, Ashley Roberts Another Dimension
Roberts would try her hand at a solo career next. She continued to dance and appear in music videos. But either side of singles Yesterday and Clockwork, she decided to spend some time in the jungle.
Roberts was a popular contestant on the 2012 season of the reality TV show I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! So popular, in fact, that she finished as runner-up.
By now, Roberts was convinced that she could make a career as a television personality. And she wasn’t wrong.
Ashley Roberts and Her TV Career
She may have made a brief appearance on I’m a Celebrity. But things really took off for Ashley Roberts when she agreed to become a panel judge on the celebrity skating show Dancing on Ice.
Roberts isn’t the only person to enjoy a successful television personality career.
Roberts would prove to be a popular judge for the 8th and the final 9th series.
From 2013 to 2016, Roberts co-hosted Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway. Rumors emerged of a romantic relationship with co-host Declan Donnelly. She was quick to put out that fire though.
In the summer of 2018, Roberts would add another huge TV show to her CV. It was announced that she would be a contestant on popular dancing show Strictly Come Dancing.
She and her professional dancing partner, Pasha Kovalev, finished joint runners-up.
Tragic Family Trouble
While she had a successful stint on the show, this was also a tragic time for the American dancer.
In 2018, her father Pat sadly took his own life. Roberts addressed the rumors on her Instagram page:
“With great sadness in my heart, I wanted to share with you that on the 19th of March – after a long battle of physical and mental heath – My father took his own life. The past 3.5 weeks I’ve been in a state of shock, confusion, questioning, pain so deep in my guts it’s been hard to come up for air.”
But Roberts vowed to take the memory of him with her as she continued her career. Today, she starts in the West End production Waitress.
This is just another exclusive appearance in Roberts’ impressive collection. Don’t be surprised to watch the net worth of Ashley Roberts continue to grow.
