In comparison to the likes of Sutton Stracke, Drew Sidora did not walk away from her divorce with a big settlement. Instead, the Real Housewives of Atlanta star was ordered to vacate the family home and pay monthly child support to her ex-husband, Ralph Pittman.
Now, days after the judge ruled on Drew’s divorce settlement, details of her finances have leaked … including how much she earns on RHOA.
Drew Sidora was paid $380K for Real Housewives of Altanta Season 16
In documents obtained by TMZ, it has been revealed that Drew earns a whopping six-figure sum for holding a peach. As for why Drew’s salary is of relevance? Well, judges need to take into account how much each party earns in order to conclude a fair divorce settlement.
According to TMZ, the judge noted that Drew testified to earning $380K for her role in Season 16 of RHOA. Court documents showed the breakdown of that sum as $22,500 per episode.
Given her long tenure on the show, Drew’s salary went up in Season 17. According to the court, her RHOA income was bumped up to $26K per episode, which totaled $456K for Season 17. Not bad!
Beyond Drew’s earnings on RHOA, she also makes money from residuals and royalty income, as well as other employment avenues.
Taking all of the above into consideration, Drew was ordered to pay her ex $2,218 per month in child support for their two children. Ralph also secured ownership of the $1.9 million home they shared in Atlanta. However, he has to pay Drew just under $150K for her interest in the home.
While all of this might seem like a loss for Drew, she did win a few things from their divorce … the family dog and a Cadillac Escalade.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta airs on Sundays at 8/7c on Bravo. It streams the next day on Peacock.
