Those of you, who haven’t watched The Graham Norton Show, are missing on real celebrity gossip and loads of fun!

Graham Norton’s Career and Net Worth

Born in Dublin but brought up at Bandon, Ireland, Graham moved to the UK to fulfil his dream of working for the entertainment industry.  He even worked as a waiter while he was pursuing his education at Central School of Speech and Drama. He started his career as a regular comedian in 1990’s for BBC Radio 4. Later, he was successful in winning an award for stand-in host for Jack Docherty’s late night show.

Since then, he continued with many chat shows under his name but finally landed up with The Graham Norton show which has been loved by the audiences since 2007.

Graham Norton has indulged himself into so many business ventures – including his own winery in collaboration with Invivo Wines. Since many years, Invivo Winery from New Zealand had been official suppliers for his show. But what more could be better than for Norton to establish a winery line on his own name? Moreover what is commendable is the fact that his wines have managed to gather numerous awards and prestigious titles for him! 

According to The Guardian, author of his book “So me”, Graham Norton earned a whopping sum of more than $3 million as salary and fees last year only for The Graham Norton Show and his BBC Radio 2 Weekend Saturday program. Now could you guess how much his net worth is? That would take quite a while because his net worth is estimated to be around 30 million dollars!

You know what is more surprising? It is the fact that Graham was known to be 14^th on the list of celebrities TV rich list in 2015, alongside judge Simon Cowell and chef Jamie Oliver.

The star owns a beautiful home in London – for sure – where he currently resides. Further, he has his own private holiday home in Ahakista, nearby to Bantry, West Cork. His home has a beautiful view of the Dunmanus Bay, which costs around €1.6 million. During his interview with the Irish Times, he mentioned that he wanted a house which was far from the city;quite and calm. His sister then found this amazing house for him which has a perfect view of nature. Every year he spends around two weeks to get off the load from his shoulder and enjoy his time with his wonderful poodles.

Graham Norton’s Stolen Car

Graham has had his own set of issues when it comes to luxurious cars. In January 2012, his house was mugged and when he returned home, his house was all messed up – knives on the floor. Norton freaked out – his two wonderful pets were in the house too! When he went to cross-check about the pets, they were absolutely fine! Although what went missing was his lavish black Lexus hybrid 4x4. But who could mess with The Graham Norton? His car was spotted within hours in Clapham – he had attached a tracking device along with his car. Clever move, Graham!
