Top 17 Richest Heirs and Heiresses in America
Top 17 Richest Heirs and Heiresses in America ``The United States has long been called the land of opportunity – a place where the American Dream rules supreme, place where anything is possible. Sure, the country is relatively young compared to nations in Europe. Despite this, America still manages to consistently come out on top as producing some of the world’s most successful people and corporations. Ah capitalism. Be it in food, service, technology (here’s looking at you, Silicon Valley), entertainment (Kardashians and Jenner) there’s a success story on every corner. With all that money made, it’s sure to be passed down the line somewhere, which brings us to the beginning of what we like to call: “The Rich List”.
Sure, some kids don’t want to know about any profit and loss statements of the family business – but when you’re dealing in the hundreds of millions and billions, well, we suppose we’d rather be holidaying year-round and using the family private jet than sitting in a boardroom. Right? So whether they have the brains or not to run a multi-million (or billion) dollar company, the kids and partners of these mega-wealthy CEOs and corporations will get a nice wedge of his fortune. On our list, we count down the richest heirs and heiresses in America. Some names you’ll be familiar with, whilst others may be more of a surprise, deciding to stay out of the spotlight and on the money. Literally. Ha. Kyra Sedgwick Net Worth: $16 million Source: Robert Sedgwick Kyra Sedgwick just has one of those faces – you’ve seen her, you know her face, but you may not know her name! Apologies to the fans! But we’re just sayin’ okay. The Golden Globe award winner sure has been in a fair few TV shows and films, but we have a feeling you didn’t know she was born into money. She’s the daughter of an extremely successful venture capitalist, Henry Dwight Sedgwick V. Quite the name too eh? Adding to that wealth, Sedgwick is actually married to Hollywood star Kevin Bacon! Yes, Mr. Footloose himself!
Sedgwick first made waves in Hollywood as a teenager, starting out her career at 16, on the show Another World. This debut was successful and led to her being cast in films including Phenomenon, Singles and Heart and Souls. She also co-starred alongside Tom Cruise in the Oscar-nominated Vietnam War film Born on the Fourth of July. But perhaps her most famous role is in the TNT series The Closer. This role garnered Sedgwick much critical acclaim, as well as a number of Golden Globe and SAG award nominations! Okay and before we forget, for you Brooklyn 99’ers, she’s of course Holt’s nemesis, the notorious, antagonistic Madeline Wuntch! If you’re not caught up on her and Holt’s ongoing feud, you are missing out. Get to it
akota Johnson Net Worth: $14 million Source: Don Johnson Next up is the very girl-next-door but also very-not (ahem Anastasia Steele), Miss Dakota Johnson. The daughter of screen legends Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith, it’s safe to say that acting is in the blood! Born in Austin, Texas, a young Dakota was quickly scouted (well that was bound to happen with star parents) as a model, before moving into film, following in her parents’ footsteps. Making her debut in 2010, you would’ve seen her in a few films!
Most notably, however, is her role as Anastasia Steele, the protagonist in the book-turned-film series Fifty Shades of Grey. The controversial role saw Johnson strip down for the part, owing to the nature of the lewd content. But hey, if you’re going to have a breakthrough role, it doesn’t get better than this! In fact, for her role as the salacious (well, she didn’t start out that way, but Mr. Grey certainly got that out of her!) Ms. Steele, she won the People’s Choice Award, as well as being nominated for the BAFTA Award for Rising Stars. Other film roles for Johnson include Suspiria, The Social Network, 21 Jump Street, Wounds and The Peanut Butter Falcon. With her dramatic prowess, Johnson has been fortunate for being cast in lots of dramas, as well as a few rom coms – but we’re sure we’ll see a lot more of Johnson in the coming years!
Scarlett Johansson Net Worth: $140 million Source: Karsten Olaf Johansson and Melanie Sloan Now, this esteemed Hollywood actress possesses an undeniable talent. Starting from young, Scarlett Johansson has been charming audiences in her teens, and still is to this day – surely you’ve seen The Avengers and thus seen Johansson in her badass costume as Black Widow. Recently in an interview, Johansson has been pegged a real-life female superhero for her comeback to a pesky reporter.
The reporter asked quite rudely (if you ask us!), if she wore any underwear underneath her PVC suit, to which she replied “seriously?” You get ‘em girl! Having been in the industry for many years, she’s got a solid footing in cinema, but there’s definitely some kudos to her parents for that initial leg-up! One parent is a successful
