Move over Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston: Jami Gertz tops the 2025 rich list as the world's wealthiest actress - here's why
Jami Gertz has officially been named the world's richest actress, according to Celebrity Net Worth. The 59-year-old actress, best known for her roles in Square Pegs, The Lost Boys, Crossroads and Twister, has amassed an estimated USD$8 billion (AUD$12.5 billion fortune), putting her ahead of Tom Cruise, Reese Witherspoon, Brad Pitt, and even Steven Spielberg.

Picture:Her father, Walter, was a builder and contractor, and her mother, Sharyn, a homemaker. But her life changed dramatically after a chance introduction to businessman Tony Ressler by her publicist in 1987. At the time, Ressler was working at investment bank Drexel Burnham Lambert, the now-defunct firm that famously collapsed over the junk bond scandal involving financier Michael Milken. The pair quickly fell in love and married two years later. "Everyone thinks I married a rich guy," Gertz told The Hollywood Reporter in 2018. "But I made more money- way more money- than Tony when I met him. I paid for our first house. I paid for our first vacation. I married him because I fell in love with him."

"When Mum married my dad, she realised how much he loved the sport and slowly started to gain an appreciation for the game," middle son Nick told The Hollywood Reporter in 2018. "Before long, the idea of owning a team became a frequent topic for dinner-table conversation. 'Wouldn't it be cool? Wouldn't that be fun?' Eventually, it became a reality." The couple later purchased a minority stake in the Milwaukee Brewers MLB team. Jami Gertz in1996 film Twister.
