Everyone’s fav girl band are worth £66.7million collectively. In the past, just one tour alone for the girls has bagged them £17million. You love to see it. In the ten years since they won X Factor, they’ve sold more than 60million records.

For the last couple of years, the whole world has stopped every time 27-year-old Harry Styles releases a single, and videos of his tours go viral every single day. One of his tours banked £45million and he’s had deals with Gucci in the past. He deserves the world, and he very nearly has it.

1. Ed Sheeran – £236.5million

Surprise, surprise – Ed Sheeran is top of the list once again. But nobody stands a chance catching up with his net worth. He’s held the 30 under 30 rich list top spot for three years running now, and I’m sorry but this kind of net worth belongs to tech moguls and Jeff Bezos only. This is unreal.

A decade on from when he released his first solo single, Ed now boasts the most-streamed single of all time with Shape of You, and the highest-grossing tour of all time (£567m for the ÷ tour).
