Fiona Bruce – £409K
Since joining the BBC in 1989, Fiona Bruce has built her entire career around the channel, and it’s paying off. Bruce is known as the face on “BBC News at Six” and “BBC News at Ten,” but she also hosts shows like “Call My Bluff” and “Antiques Roadshow.”
Bruce succeeded David Dimbleby as host of BBC’s “Question Time” in 2019, and by 2020, she was the second-highest female earner at the organization. But even with the 10% pay cut implemented by BBC, The National lists her annual earnings to be around £409K.
Nigella Lawson – £15 Million
If there’s one thing to be said about Nigella Lawson, it’s that she’s made a successful career out of her love for food. She started her career as a writer and food critic before publishing her bestselling cookbook “How to Eat.” Following the success of her first book, she began hosting her cooking show, “Nigella Bites,” in 1999.
Since then, she’s written many other books and hosted several other cooking shows for the BBC and Food Network. In 2021, Lawson made her fourth appearance as a guest judge on “Masterchef Australia.” She also runs a thriving kitchenware company that has contributed to her £15 million fortune.
