The real BBC rich list REVEALED: From Stacey Solomon to Richard Osman and Rylan Clark - the stars earnings the corporation don't publish
Earlier this week it was revealed Gary Lineker and Zoe Ball have topped the BBC rich list again this year as their whopping salaries were published. The BBC's annual report for 2024/25 showed the sport star's £1.35 million salary made him the Beeb's highest-paid star over the last year with Zoe the highest-paid woman at the corporation on £519,000, despite working part-time. However it appears they aren't really the richest stars at the corporation as several famous faces were absent from the report. The likes of Stacey Solomon, Rylan Clark and Claudia Winkleman were not listed as BBC studios, its own commercial arm, does not have to publish the salaries of its own stars. A dive into several presenters filings of their limited firms registered at Companies House means it is possible to estimate the earnings of some fan favourites. So who really is topping the BBC hidden rich list? Stacey Solomon - £7.3million Back in April MailOnline revealed Stacey to be worth a staggering £7.3million after dramatically increasing her fortune last year. The Dagenham-born TV star, 35, who presents BBC show Sort Your Life Out, has enlarged her earnings from £1.4million in 2023 to £3million the following year, with the former X Factor finalist's business Key Map Entertainment now valued at over £7million. Mother-of-five Stacey made a portion of her wealth after securing a reality show deal with the BBC, which follows her life with husband, ex-EastEnders actor Joe Swash, 43, and their children. The former singer has earned her fortune by fronting multiple womenswear and children's ranges with high street giant Primark, homeware collections in supermarket Asda, and lucrative social media deals with the likes of Jet2 and In The Style. Richard Osman - £3,702,23 He was best known for co-hosting Pointless and has since gone on to host House Of Games. And Records for Six Seven Entertainment - of which Richard, 54, is the sole director - saw retained earnings come in at £3,702,23 in 2025, up from £1,904,477 the year before. It comes after a stellar year for the former Pointless host, which saw the build up to his series being adapted by Netflix, starring Dame Helen Mirren, Celia Imrie, Pierce Brosnan and Sir Ben Kingsley. Louis Theroux - £2,883,786 Louis' company Blobfish Limited made a total of £2,883,786 according to its most recent accounts, increasing its earnings by around £1 million between 2022 and 2023. While he has been the BBC's unassuming interviewer for 26 years, it seems he is taking a step back from his work with the national broadcaster. After two series of Louis Theroux Interviews, it was reported by The Sun earlier this year that Louis will not be making any more series for the foreseeable future and will instead be working with Netlix. Graham Norton - £2,774,145 The Irish star has been presenting his Friday night BBC chat show for 18 years and last year signed a deal with ITV, thought to be worth around £1million, to front a rebooted version of Wheel of Fortune. His former production company So Television was also bought by ITV in a deal reported to be worth up to £17million in 2012 and, last year, he took a £2.7million salary from So. Michael McIntyre - £1,753,861 Earlier this year the BBC announced they had secured a further two series of Michael McIntyre's The Wheel and The Big Show. His own production firm, Hungry McBear, with TV producer pal Dan Baldwin worth £1,753,861 in 2023. Claudia Winkleman - £1,575,279 Claudia's company Little Owl Production shows a total equity of £1,575,279 for the 2024 accounts. And the presenter is one of the channel's favourite presenters as the success of The Traitors continues to go from strength to strength. It's reported that she has a £1million deal to continue making the show and also earns around £600,000 a year for presenting Strictly Come Dancing with Tess Daly. Rylan Clark - £1,447,866 Rylan's Limited companies house shows he made £1,447,866 according to last year's accounts. The presenter has become a household name and despite rising to fame on the X Factor he is now an established figure at the BBC. He hosts his own Radio 2 show and earlier this year won the Corporation a Bafta TV award for his Grand Tour travel show alongside Rob Rinder. It has been a rocky year for the BBC and there are also some stars who have since parted ways with the corporation including Wynne Evans and most recently Gregg Wallace and John Torode. Wynne Evans - £734,830 Wynne was axed by the BBC following a controversial comment made during the Strictly Come Dancing live tour in January, but his accounts show he made £734,830 in 2024. After his BBC Wales show was cut, Wynne announced that he would be launching a new radio show - which he has now confirmed he will record from The Welsh House. After the BBC launched an investigation into his conduct, bosses decided not to renew his radio contract for his show. Then, it was revealed that his travelogue series with Joanna Page was cancelled after just one series. The programme originally aired in February and March of this year and was placed on ice when Wynne was dropped from the Strictly tour before returning to screens. Gregg Wallace - £24,830 Documents show Gregg's company Lobster Enterprises made £24,830 as of February this year. Gregg is said to be plotting a 'secret survival plan' and is desperate to keep earning, having been side-lined since last year following a raft of allegations about his inappropriate behaviour on set at MasterChef. A report this week substantiated 45 of the 83 allegations against him, and the BBC informed the star that it had no intention of working with him in the future. John Torode - £47,351 Meanwhile coming bottom of the list, John's company Caspar 10 Ltd shows accounts of £47,351 for 2025. The BBC also sacked John for 'using an extremely offensive racist term'. The Australian chef, 59, was axed from the cooking competition in an announcement from the broadcaster on Tuesday afternoon after the Gregg Wallace investigation also found John had once used an 'extremely offensive racist term', allegedly during some drinks after filming. John posted to Instagram on Tuesday evening to say he had 'no recollection' of the incident and did not believe it had happened.
