Bobby Flay Net Worth - After reports emerged that famed celebrity chef and Food Network star Bobby Flay is in the middle of a messy divorce, many are wondering how this will affect his current net worth value.
Bobby Flay has an estimated net worth of $16 million as Celebrity Net Worth listed. He is a celebrity chef, reality television personality and restaurateur. He has hosted several Food Network television program and is featured on the "Great Chefs" television series.
Aside from his earnings in Food Network, Bobby Flay's net worth is also greatly attributed to his growing restaurant empire. He is the owner and executive chef of several restaurants. It includes Mesa Grill in Las Vegas and the Bahamas; Bar Americain in New York and Uncasville, CT; Bobby Flay Steak in Atlantic City; Gato in New York, and Bobby's Burger Palace in 18 locations across 11 states.
In addition, Flay has also his own line of sauces and rubs along with more than a dozen best-selling cookbooks.
Currently, it seems that Bobby Flay's net worth is in danger of being divided after he separated from his wife of 10 years, "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" actress Stephanie March. Flay and March, who had dated for four years, married in 2005. Though there are no visible signs of marital woes, the relationship was falling apart.
"There was a gradual falling apart of their relationship," a source told New York Post's Page Six. "The couple grew apart, and both are very sad about the split."
Over the past year-and-a-half, the relationship of the soon-to-be-exes began to deteriorate after 50-year-old Flay became too busy with work that he can't even visit his 40-year-old wife, who was confined in the hospital last year. According to Hollywood Take, that was the final straw in the couple's struggling relationship.
For several weeks now, Flay and March are reportedly living apart after the Food Network chef moved out of their New York City apartment.
Meanwhile, Bobby Flay's net worth appears to be unaffected by the divorce drama since they reportedly signed a pre-nuptial agreement before their marriage. Since Flay was already quite wealthy, he made sure that much of that money he earned before their marriage was protected. March, on the other hand, is unhappy with the setup and is currently fighting with her ex over his assets.
Over the past few years, Bobby Flay's net worth has rapidly increased. Back in 2008, he was reportedly worth just $1.5 million. By 2012, the value increased to $9 million. And recently Flay's fortune is around $16 million. And because of this, Flay's divorce settlement will definitely get messy.
