The UK’s richest 30 under 30 has just been revealed and there are some very unexpected entries

Look, Mum, not all Gen Z are useless! In fact, some of us are raking in millions each year. Not anybody I know, but still. Heat nicely worked out the 30 richest celebs from the UK and Ireland under the age of 30 in 2024.

You can bet that these people can afford plenty of pumpkin spice lattes and avocado toast at bottomless brunch.  The secret to success seems to be to have rich parents, or to have been on Love Island, or to be Dani Dyer and get both.

So, here are the 30 richest UK celebs in 2024 who are 30 or less. Look upon their earnings and despair.

=28. Big Zuu – £2.5 million

He’s a TV chef by night, and a rapper by later in the night.

=28. Kem Cetinay- £2.5 million

He won Love Island in Amber when it became cool in 2017.

=28. Beabadoobee – £2.5 million

The indie singer has officially made it into the mainstream after opening on The Eras Tour.

27. Emma Mackey – £3.3 million

Aka Maeve in Sex Education. She was also in Barbie for approximately 30 seconds.

26. Ella Henderson – £3.4 million

Simon Cowell ditched this X-Factor alumna in 2018, but she’s dropped more hit songs since.

=24. Dani Dyer – £4 million

She’s basically never been off reality TV shows since Love Island, and now earns about £16,000 per Insta post.

=24. AJ Tracey – £4 million

Heat says this rapper sponsors scholarships for black students at the Uni of Oxford, which is very nice of him.

23. Paul Mescal – £4.1 million

The perks of being pretty (and a semi-competent actor?)

22. Tommy Fury – £4.2 million

He has half the money Molly-Mae has.

21. Amber Gill – £4.7 million

Brand deals made her a millionaire within two months of winning Love Island 2019.

20. Olivia Bowen – £5.1 million

The ex-Love Islander has made £500,000 from sponsored Insta posts alone.

19. Raye – £5.2 million

The singer is becoming more and more famous after winning six BRITs this year.

18. Florence Pugh – £5.9 million

Our queen Florence made £2.6 million last year alone.

17. Jake Bugg – £7.3 million

This singer has six albums out and I’ve only just heard of him.

16. Maya Jama – £8.1 million

Er, ITV pays her £750,00 to present Love Island. That’s £93,750 per week of work.

Her new album Beleive Me Now? and recent world tour has boosted her bank balance.

14. Saoirse Ronan – £9 million

The Irish actress has had a busy year – she starred in the films The Outrun and Blitz, and married the actor Jack Lowden.

13. Maisie Williams – £9.6 million

Aka Arya Stark in Game of Thrones. Her wealth comes more from brand deals now than it does from actual acting.

12. Molly-Mae Hague – £9.7 million

Maybe Maebe is working out after all?

11. Aitch – £10 million

The rapper has only released one album, but he’s been cashing in with JD Sports and Lynx brand deals.

10. Asa Butterfield – £10.7 million

The 27-year-old has been acting professionally since 2008, so it’s not really surprising that his bank balance has built up.

9. Sam Fender – £13.1 million

I don’t like his music much, but apparently loads of people do, because he’s worth an astounding £13.1 million at the age of 30.

8. Jorja Smith – £13.7 million

The R&B singer has only made two albums, but they worked out for her, because she made £3 million last year alone.

7. Dave – £13.9 million

The London-born rapper raced to the top of the UK charts last year with Sprinter.

6. Sophie Turner – £18.5 million

Mother Sophie has been living, loving and laughing since ditching Joe Jonas. Her wealth is nothing compared to that of her aristocratic boyfriend  the Honourable Peregrine John Dickinson Pearson, who is set to inherit t all 16,500 acres of his family’s estate in West Sussex and £224 million.

5. Millie Bobby Brown – £22 million

She literally has more millions than she does years of age. Mental. Her wedding to Jon Bon Jovi’s son can’t have been cheap, as she got through four different designer wedding dresses.

4. Lewis Capaldi – £30.4 million

The singer is still raking in millions, despite cancelling several tour dates.

3. Tom Holland – £30.6 million

It’s really not surprising that Spider-Man is one of the richest UK celebs in 2024. With great power comes great paychecks and dating Zendaya.

2. Dua Lipa – £104 million

She can dance the night away in her £6.75 million London townhouse.

1. Harry Styles – £200 million

I’m not going to insult your intelligence by explaining who Harry Styles is.
