Kenya's Net Worth 

Kenya rose to prominence after winning Miss USA and then competing in the Miss Universe pageant, where she placed in the top six contenders.

On The Real Housewives of Atlanta, she is the fourth wealthiest of all the Housewives.

The Hollywood sensation is thought to make approximately $500,000 every season. Kenya was allegedly making up to $1.5 million at one time, but her earnings dropped after producers dismissed her for concealing details about her life including her wedding to Marc during filming for the show. Marc Dali's net worth is $35 million, which is more than Kenya's.
