The Forbes figure is four years older, so the two are not a like-for-like comparison, and we show them side by side without averaging. Forbes says it reached $200 million by adding up homes, earnings from the TV show and dividends from her children’s companies, and that Jenner would not disclose her personal earnings. Business Insider reported a $230 million Forbes figure in November 2022; we cite the number in Forbes’ own article. Celebrity Net Worth does not show a breakdown.
Reported earnings figures
- Forbes reported in 2016 that her annual earnings were $11.5 million, ranking her fifth on its top-earning reality stars list (Forbes, November 16, 2016). That is a 2016 figure.
- Forbes’ industry sources say she receives 10% of gross revenue from products, TV shows and modeling work in which her family takes part, and Jenner confirmed the 10% arrangement but would not disclose how much she earns (Forbes, October 14, 2022).
- Forbes estimated her stakes in 2022 at about 1% of Skims, 5% of Kylie Cosmetics, 10% of Good American and 7% of Safely. These are Forbes estimates and may have changed since.
Reading these figures
The 10% figure describes a commission rate. It is not a measure of her income, because the revenue it applies to is private. The Forbes net worth is from 2022 and the Celebrity Net Worth figure is current, so the gap may reflect time as well as method. Company stakes are Forbes estimates and are not filings.
