Recently, I rounded up some celebs who married multimillionaires and billionaires. However, there are plenty more who got romantically involved with the super rich but didn't make it down the aisle.
Here are 17 celebs who dated people with serious money:
1.After a few months of dating, Mariah Carey got engaged to investor James Packer in 2016. They broke up eight months later. According to Forbes, his net worth is about $2.6 billion.
Following their split, Mariah reportedly sued James for a $50 million "inconvenience fee" but settled in the neighborhood of $5–$10 million. She also got to keep her $10-million engagement ring.
2.In 2014, Miranda Kerr was romantically involved with financier Jho Low, who reportedly had an estimated net worth of $700 million before he was faced charges for his alleged involvement in a $4.5 billion money laundering scheme in Malaysia. He's currently a fugitive.
In 2017, Miranda, who wasn't suspected of any wrongdoing in the case, turned over $8 million of jewelry he'd given her to the US Justice Department. The gifts included a $1.8-million heart-shaped diamond necklace with her initials on the back, a $4.8-million pink diamond pendant, and about $2 million of matching pieces.
3.From 2004–2005, Mischa Barton dated Brandon Davis, the grandson of oil baron Marvin Davis, who had a reported net worth of $5.8 billion in 2004, the year he died.
4.Rebel Wilson and Jacob Busch made their relationship Instagram official in late 2020 but ended things four months later. As of 2020, Forbes estimated that his family, who founded the Anheuser-Busch brewing company, had a net worth of $17.6 billion.
5.Before becoming a billionaire herself, Rihanna dated Hassan Jameel from 2017–2020. His family — who own the largest Toyota distribution company in several parts of the Middle East, Abdul Latif Jameel — was reportedly worth a collective $2.2 billion in 2017.
6.Linda Evangelista and François-Henri Pinault were together for four months in 2006, but they allegedly only spent seven days together in person. His family owns the luxury group Kering, which owns brands like Gucci and Saint Laurent, and their collective net worth is reportedly $38.3 billion, according to Forbes.
They had a son, Augustin, together, and they had a very drawn-out child support case. In her filing, Linda claimed she spent $46,000 a month on expenses like 24-hour nanny care and armed bodyguards. François-Henri's lawyer said that amount was "just ridiculous." Eventually, the former couple reached a private settlement.
7.After her previous relationship ended, Linda Evangelista dated Hard Rock Café co-founder Peter Morton until 2013. His net worth was reportedly an estimated $800 million in 2021.
8.In early 2022, Julia Fox dated Ye (formerly Kanye West) for about a month. At the time, Forbes estimated his net worth to be about $2 billion, but now, following Adidas cutting ties with him over his antisemitic remarks, it's reportedly $400 million.
On her TikTok story several months after the breakup, Julia said, "Money coming into a billionaire should go right back into the community that made them rich. That’s how I feel about billionaires, they should not exist. They are fucking pariah to our society. There's about 2,500 billionaires, I think, and cumulatively, they own the majority of the wealth of the world so that they can go fuck themselves."
Then, addressing the billionaires she's dated, she added, "Yeah that's why I use all of you. That's why I used all of you. Yeah. Never loved any of you guys."
9.Pete Davidson dated Kim Kardashian for about nine months between 2021–2022. Forbes estimates her net worth to be around $1.7 billion.
