How 90s star Dani Behr 54, swapped lads' mags for life in LA where she sells million dollar mansions, flies in private jets and counts Kim Kardashian as a neighbour
Dani Behr was one of TV's most famous faces in the 90s and a regular in lads mags before swapping it all for a glamorous life in sun-soaked LA. The gorgeous 54-year-old is best known for hosting iconic show's like The Word and Big Breakfast but made a huge change and embarked on a career as a estate license agent and now sells million dollar mansions to the rich and famous. Dani lives in the celebrity-favourite suburb of Bel Air with her kids, where the likes of Kim Kardashian also own homes. Her Instagram account features glossy snaps after setting up home in Tinseltown 20 years ago to raise her children Coco, 20, and Zane, 18, as a single mum. Her glamorous life across the pond sees her travelling regularly on a private jet and cosying up to a mystery beau, as well as enjoying time with famous friends including influencer James Charles, 26. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She is best known for hosting iconic show's like The Word and Big Breakfast for swapping it all for a a real estate license and selling million dollar mansions (pictured 1995) Alongside real estate Dani runs her own TV production company with a friend, where she's revealed she has several real estate shows in development. She's also a regular face on reality realtor show Million Dollar Listing LA and spent a two years presenting her own podcast The Behr Essentials about life in the city. The stunner relocated to LA in the noughties, at first spending time jetting back and forth between the UK and US while she juggled TV work in both countries. After stints living in Costa Rica and Australia, it was after her 2014 divorce from husband Carl Harwin, that she decided to settle in LA permanently with her two young children to allow her and her ex to co-parent from the same city. And Dani explained that debt from her divorce and her TV work drying up led her to forge a new career in real estate. The star had experience in the industry, with her dad working in real estate and her mum as an interior designer. On her glossy website advertising her work, Dani states that her 'love for the business dates to when she was just 11yrs old, assisting her Father before and after school at his successful London R.E Brokerage'. The star actually bought her first property at just 16 and continued her investments throughout her '90s TV years. Speaking on White Wine Question Time in 2020, she told Kate Thornton that she made the switch full time to real estate when her on screen work dried up around the time of her divorce. 'TV here [in America] had completely changed. There wasn't really a TV market for me anymore,' she revealed. 'They don't have careers as presenters out here, like back home. You're either a news journalist or a sportscaster or a late night comedian, those were the hosts of all the shows here and I didn't fit into any of those categories. She continued: 'What else do I know how to do? I didn't go to college. So, I was like, "I know real estate" so I thought, "OK, I'll just get my license" so I studied. You have to study and do all these exams and get your license. Dani admitted though that it's an equally tough business to TV, pointing out: 'I've jumped out the frying pan and into the fire - I went into another commission-only business.' 'Some years you do OK and others you're like, "What am I going to do?" - especially if the market dies here.' She continued: 'If you do big here, you do big because the commissions are higher. Last year, I showed eight different buyers properties for nine months and they all decided not to buy in the end, so I worked for free essentially for nine months. Dani explained that debt from her divorce and her TV work drying up led her to forge a new career in real estate (pictured with the late Keith Chegwin (left) and Robbie Williams (centre) on The Big Breakfast in 1995) 'Then you can just work with one person, show them one day and they go, 'Let's buy it' and that's just one day's work. It's brutal, so that's why there's only like a handful of people that really survive in it.' Dani has proved to be a huge success in her second career with her past sales listed on her website including a $7,900,000 five bed home in LA. While her marriage to restaurateur Carl Harwin ended in divorce, Dani, who famously dated Ryan Giggs from 1994 to 1995, is now happily loved up with a new beau. The unnamed love interest has featured on her Instagram, with Dani documenting their love of travel on her Instagram account. The snaps show Dani and her beau flying via private jet to Las Vegas and New York, enjoying ski trips to Aspen and whale watching at the beach. Back in 2022 Dani made an appearance on ITV's Lorraine as a showbiz correspondent from LA and viewers were stunned by her LA make over. The stunner was sporting her trademark blonde hair and thick-rimmed glasses and a pink top as she filled in for Ross King. Taking to X they wrote: 'That's The Big Breakfast's Dani Behr?! I would never have recognised her other than her voice. #lorraine.' 'With many families facing poverty do we really need Dani Behr talking about million pound mansions ?? #lorraine.' 'That's Dani Behr. #Lorraine' along with some shocked face emojis. 'Dani Behr has had some work #lorraine #gmb #ITV.' Dani also appeared on Lorraine back in 2020 and talked about her career in real estate. Lorraine compared her career at the time to hit Netflix series Selling Sunset. Dani said: 'The houses are the same and the locations are the same, but the drama is more with the clients, I don't know any officers who clash like that. 'The problem with real estate is it's a feast or famine industry, it's literally you make a commission or you get nothing.
