IT certainly pays to be on Loose Women – as stars of the ITV show can testify.
We told this week how Stacey Solomon raked in £2.5million last year and is earning a staggering £3,000 per episode.
The 2009 X Factor runner-up’s vast earnings came from social media endorsements and her TV presenting work.
A TV source told us she has “immense” earning power after having “carved out a real niche” that’s left companies “desperate to work with her”.
But the Loose Women star – currently on maternity leave – is surprisingly not the best off out of her co-stars.
From brand deals to savvy investments, we explore the Loose Women millionaires and their estimated net worth.

The mum-of-two, who also volunteers as a special constable with police in London, is known to split her time between two sprawling mansions.
The first is a £4.65million property in Essex that’s so luxurious her co-star Denise Welch joked that it was like Hampton Court Palace; the second is a plush pad in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Former S Club Juniors and The Saturdays singer Frankie Bridge, who’s married to Wayne Bridge, is worth £9million.
She’s the highest-earning member of the band thanks to her TV work and becoming a best-selling author with her revealing memoir about mental health.
The mum-of-two, 33, who has appeared on Loose Women since last year, topped up her earnings with stints on I’m a Celebrity, Strictly Come Dancing and The Xtra Factor.

Alongside her TV work, the mum-of-three has revealed multiple weight loss workout DVDs and several books including memoirs.
Coleen lived in an £800,000 farmhouse – part of her divorce from Shane Ritchie – that had its own music, studio gym and house a whopping 15 animals.
Ruth Langsford has taken a break from Loose Women, and she can certainly afford to.

Outside of TV, Ruth and husband Eamonn Holmes have been cashing in on marketing to the over 60s market.
She has her own label of clothes for “the older woman” which she sells on channel QVC.

She shot to fame after coming fourth on series two of The X Factor in 2005 and then landing a lead role in Chicago in the West End.
Since then she’s had starring roles in We Will Rock You as the Killer Queen, Hairspray and in Sister Act.
But she told how before living in her swish west London pad, she used to struggle to make ends meet as a single mum of two.
She said: “I did hide everything financial from not just my kids but my family in general, I didn’t want them to know that I was struggling.”
The telly loudmouth, 75, has acquired her wealth through a glittering media career – in front and behind the camera – and savvy property moves.
As a trained architect, Janet commissioned a friend in 1988 to build her a house in London’s Clerkenwell.

While her main home is in Norfolk, Janet also has owned properties in Yorkshire and Whitsable, Kent.
Stacey, 32, started out on reality TV but has a new found career as a lifestyle influencer.
