followers and 1.6 million YouTube subscribers, she and her husband Ivor have created a thriving online platform featuring lifestyle, travel, and family content. Recently, they addressed common questions from fans in a YouTube video, including inquiries about their earnings.
Financial Stability
Although Alanna chose not to reveal exact numbers, she clearly conveyed their financial security. As reported in Pinkvila, she said, 'All I'll say is that how much we make is more than enough to live the life that you guys are seeing online. We are completely financially independent, we pay all our bills. We have saved up enough to buy our house, and we have bought our car. It's more than enough to live the life that you see.'
Aiming for Financial Freedom
Ivor mentioned that their financial strategy for the
future
is already set in motion. 'The goal is that, within five years, if we're on the right path, we wouldn't have to work again if we didn't want to,' he explained. He attributed this perspective to his family background, sharing that his grandfather, who maintained a modest lifestyle despite being a millionaire, inspired him to take a humble and sensible approach to managing wealth.
Lessons from a Modest Millionaire Grandfather
He revealed that his grandfather was extremely wealthy, yet he kept it a secret by dressing in worn-out clothes and driving a dilapidated car. Although a millionaire, he preferred a simple, unassuming lifestyle and never showed off his riches. This humble approach to wealth was passed down through the family to Ivor. He also shared that his grandfather advised them to avoid discussing money or politics, a piece of wisdom that has remained with him over the years.
Thriving Personally and Professionally
Since the arrival of their first child, River, last year, Alanna and Ivor have been thriving both personally and professionally. The duo also appeared together on the Prime Video reality series 'The Tribe', offering fans an inside glimpse into their everyday lives.

When Mohanlal reacted to Akshay Kumar remaking his Malayalam hits, 'You cannot compare actors'
(Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Some of Akshay Kumar 's biggest commercial successes, including 'Garam Masala' and 'Bhool Bhulaiyaa,' were Hindi remakes of Mohanlal 's iconic Malayalam films from the 1990s. Notably, both the originals and the Hindi versions were helmed by filmmaker Priyadarshan , a long-time collaborator of Mohanlal. Earlier at the trailer launch of his directorial debut, 'Barroz,' Malayalam superstar Mohanlal candidly addressed the long-standing conversation around Akshay Kumar starring in Hindi remakes of several of his iconic Malayalam films. Far from being possessive or critical, Mohanlal expressed deep admiration for Akshay and called the films 'totally different' in nature, emphasizing that comparisons between actors are unfair.

But by doing this, You've 'DISCLOSED' the person that you are… Putting down a Younger actor and ousting my story? Is this what your feminism stands for ? As a filmmaker, I put years of hard work behind my craft & for me, filmmaking is everything. You didn't get it. You won't get it. You will never get it. Aisa karo….
