Bert Newton – $15 Million

In October 2021, the world mourned the passing of the Australian media personality Bert Newton, who left a $15-million fortune behind. Newton’s death was particularly felt in the land down under, where this Victoria native worked successfully as a show-biz entertainer between 1951 and 2015, the year he announced his retirement.

A Logie Hall of Fame inductee, Newton was arguably one of Australia’s most prominent TV personalities and worked most notably in shows such as “In Melbourne Tonight,” “Good Morning Australia,” and “Bert’s Family Feud.” He was the father of two children, including the Australian actor/writer/director Matthew Newton.
