Brian McFadden Net Worth $18 Million
From an early age, Brian became interested in the performing arts, particularly singing and dancing. This only developed as he was growing up, and once in Billie Barry Stage School in Dublin, Brian started featuring in stage and TV roles. He then started an R&B group called Cartel, but soon after Brian auditioned for an available place in the boy group Westlife, and alongside Nicky Bryne, Kian Egan, Shane Filan and Mark Feehily, Brian became a part of the boy band, that would become extremely popular in Ireland in the early 2000s. Brian remained in the group until 2004, during which time they released four studio albums, “Westlife” (1999), “Coast to Coast” (2000), “World of Our Own” (2001), and “Turnaround”. All four albums topped the Ireland chart, while the first three sold millions of copies worldwide, which certainly increased Brian’s net worth. Their second album “Coast to Coast”, achieved six-times platinum status in Britain, and nine times platinum in the Philippines.
Following his departure from the band in 2004, Brian signed as a solo artist with Sony BMG, and released his debut solo album later the same year. The album “Irish Son”, wasn’t as popular as the releases of Westlife, though his single “Almost Here” – actually a duet with Delta Goodrem – topped the Australian and Ireland charts, and achieved platinum status in Australia, which added a considerable amount to his net worth.
More turbulence followed as Brian got into a disagreement with Sony BMG agents over the course his music career was taking, which resulted in Brian leaving the label and starting his own BMF Records. His second album “Set in Stone” was released through his record label, but there was no improvement in commercial success, so he came to an agreement with Universal Music Australia, through which he released the single “Like Only a Woman Can” reaching No. 13 on the charts. He continued to make music, and in 2010 released his third album “Wall of Soundz”, which spawned such hits as “Just Say So”, a duet with Kevin Rudolf, which topped the Australian charts and achieved platinum status there, and “Chemical Rush” which peaked at No. 12.
His latest album came out in 2013, “The Irish Connection”, a cover album of popular Irish songs that have Brian in love with the music of his native country, but which didn’t strike a chord with the public, reaching only No. 75 on the Irish chart, and No. 66 on Australian charts.
Since then, Brian has become more focused on his career on television; he was the judge in “Australia’s Got Talent” from 2010 to 2012, and has featured as a contestant in such shows as “The Chase: Celebrity Special” in 2014, “The Chase: Text Santa Special” (2015), and ”Catchphrase: Celebrity Couples Special” also in 2015. Most recently Brian served as a presenter in the show “Who’s Doing the Dishes” (2014-2016), among many other appearances, all of which have helped increase his net worth.
When it comes to his personal life, Brian has two marriages behind him and two children from those relationships. Back in 2002, he married singer Kerry Katona, but the couple separated in 2004, and two years later their divorce was official. Brian has two daughters with Kerry. In 2004 he started a romantic relationship with actress and singer Delta Goodrem, which lasted until 2011. The following year he married Irish model Vogue Williams, but the couple separated in 2015. He is apparently single at the moment.
