Alanna Panday, Ivor McCray On YouTube Earnings: ‘Won't Have To Work In 5 Years'
Last Updated:
The couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Edward Ivor "River" McCray VI, in July last year.
Alanna Panday, cousin of actress Ananya Panday, is a social media influencer and a YouTuber. She runs her own YouTube channel along with her husband Ivor McCray, named Alanna and Ivory, through which she shares insights from her personal life. Their channel currently has 16.4 lakh active subscribers and more than 20 lakh followers on Instagram. But how much money does the couple make to live a luxurious and happening life in Los Angeles?
Recently, the duo shared a video on YouTube wherein they both were seen answering some fans' frequently asked questions. When asked about how much they make as influencers, Alanna said, 'All I'll say is that the money we make is more than enough to live the lifestyle you're seeing online. We are completely financially independent, and we pay all of our bills. We saved enough money to buy our house and car. It is more than enough to lead the life you see."
Ivor, on the other hand, shared the teachings of his father and grandfather regarding money and said, 'The goal is that if we stay on track, we won't have to work again in five years if we don't want to. My father and grandfather passed this mindset on to me. My grandfather was extremely wealthy, but no one knew. He would dress poorly and drive a beat-up car, despite the fact that he was wealthy. He hailed from a wealthy family, but he did not want that lifestyle for his children. He never wore the money. He told my father and he told me."
He further revealed that his father told him to never discuss finances with anyone. 'He (my father) told me two things: you don't talk about finances and you don't talk about politics," said Ivor.
Alanna and Ivor tied the knot in March 2023 in Mumbai after a few years of dating. The function was attended by several big Bollywood celebs, including Shah Rukh Khan, Gauri Khan, Ananya Panday, Jackie Shroff, Rekha and others. The couple welcomed their first child, a baby boy, named Edward Ivor 'River" McCray VI, in July last year.

'Stubborn' Cheteshwar Pujara ignored Rohit Sharma's advice, regretted it moments later: 'I told him not to...'
India's batting duo of Cheteshwar Pujara and Rohit Sharma go back a long way. They first appeared for India together during the 2006 Under-19 World Cup, highlights of which are still available on YouTube, before going on to carve out a glorious career with the Indian cricket team. Rohit and Pujara could have batted a lot more together in Tests, but the Indian ODI captain's sporadic runs in Test cricket did not allow it to happen. Pujara, a Test specialist for India, instead, put on some legendary partnerships with Ajinkya Rahane and Virat Kohli. But that doesn't take away anything from some of the most memorable and not-so-memorable moments he and Rohit have shared both on and off the field. Who can forget Rohit's iconic unfiltered call "Bhaag Pujji" followed by an expletive during the 2019 Test series between India and South Africa at home? Even though they may not have played together since 2021, Rohit and Pujara continue to share a strong bond. Last year, when moments after Ravichandran Ashwin announced his retirement from international cricket, Rohit's slip of tongue regarding Pujara became one of his peak press conference moments. "Pujara is hiding somewhere in Rajkot, so we don't meet so often. Let me clarify, Pujara has not retired. You'll get me killed," he said. Recently, during the book launch of 'The Diary of a Cricketer's Wife' penned by Pujara's wife, Pooja, which Rohit attended, the India ODI captain reminded his former teammate about an incident that probably got left out. As part of the same Playing XI on numerous occasions, Rohit recalled their tour of the West Indies, where, despite his warning, Pujara did not pay attention and shortly regretted his decision. "I'm sure it's not written in the book. Is there anything regarding that West Indies tour of India A 2012. What happened," Rohit needed Pujara. That's when Puji opened up on the incident. "I haven't told. I mean, she is aware but she doesn't know the details. I am a vegetarian. So we were looking for a vegetarian meal at night. It was in TNT (Trinidad and Tobago) where we went out at 11 in the evening. We didn't find the meal but when we were walking back, I was mugged. I can't tell you in detail about it but that's the story he is referring to." Rohit added his two cents on the matter as well. "Moral of the story is that he can be stubborn," he said. "We told him. We warned him not to go out in the night. Don't step out after 9 PM. This is the West Indies." It should be noted that Pujara had already made his debut for India by then. His first Test for India dates to October of 2010 against Australia in Bengaluru. Between then and January of 2011, Pujara played three Tests for India before getting dropped from the team. He finally made his return in August of 2012, scoring his maiden century – 159 against New Zealand in Hyderabad.

Fardeen Khan opens up about giving up alcohol, sought professional help to get sober: ‘I started drinking at a young age, it was interfering with my life'
After taking a long break from films, Fardeen Khan decided to resume his acting career during the second lockdown at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. In a recent interaction, the actor recalled that although he was eager to return to films, he didn't know where to begin, having been away from the industry for such a long time. Adding to the challenge was the fact that he had put on some weight and was at 102 kgs during his hiatus. Speaking about the same to Cyrus Broacha on his YouTube channel, he said, 'I knew I had to get in a certain shape. I was 102 or 103 kgs at my heaviest and not muscle — just good old body fat.' Fardeen admitted that he worked on himself in trying to get healthy. 'Last week I was 78 kgs. I lost 25 kgs,' he shared. He then spoke about his sobriety and shared that he gave up drinking in 2020 and sought professional help to do so as his drinking was starting to interfere with his life. 'I was at a stage where I just didn't feel myself. I became sober in 2020 and I stopped alcohol in one go. I needed to stop, it was interfering with my life. I took professional help to stop and it was the best decision I have made in my life. I started drinking very, very young so this was the first time the brain fog lifted,' he shared. In an earlier interaction, Fardeen had shared that he took a 14-year-long break from acting to focus on family. He moved to London to be with his wife, Natasha Madhvani, as the couple was facing some challenges in having children. After becoming a father to a daughter and a son, the actor decided to extend his break to spend more time with his kids. Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, he said, 'We were having challenges having children, and that's when we decided to take the IVF route. That's why I needed to take some time off. It wasn't meant to be this long. I thought only for a few years… get everything settled, but things didn't happen that way. Then, when my daughter was born, my heart melted, and I thought, let's spend some time with her.' Apart from Heeramandi, Fardeen has also starred in films like Khel Khel Mein, Visfot, and the recently released Housefull 5. He also has the Kannada film The Devil in the pipeline.
