It’s been revealed that Stephen Mulhern could be one of TV’s richest stars, as he appears to be raking in a whopping £80,000 a week.

The 47-year-old star has an impressive presenting portfolio, having begun his career at CITV in the early 00s, starring on the likes of Finger Tips and Tricky TV.

He’s since gone on to become a household name after appearing on Britain’s Got Talent and Catchphrase, taking over from Noel Edmonds on the Deal or No Deal revival and replacing Phillip Schofield on Dancing On Ice with Holly Willoughby.

The comedian and magician, who often appeared alongside Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly on Saturday Night Takeaway and has fronted In For A Penny and Big Star’s Little Star, also has a property and investment firm.

And now his latest figures show how much he’s been earning, as his companies have been making millions.

Figures from his company Blue Eye Productions Limited, for which Stephen is the sole Director, reveal he earned more than £4,000,000 in the year leading up to February 2024.

The shareholders’ funds over that period stood at £4,035,019, resulting in £336,200 a month, or £85,062 a week.

A second company, JFDI Productions Limited, for which Stephen was a Director until October this year, earned £2,896,702 in net assets between 2022 and April 2023.

It was reported in 2018 that Stephen’s net worth stood at between £2million and £3million, though the latest findings would suggest they’re now significantly higher.

The star has been undergoing a difficult time recently, after the death of his father and his own health issues.

He keeps his personal life firmly out of the spotlight, though his rep confirmed last week that Stephen had collapsed while out for dinner and was taken to hospital.

A statement to Metro read: ‘Stephen has had an incredibly tough time over the past few weeks. His beloved father recently passed away which has hit him hard and has been understandably very stressful.

‘In addition, he had a procedure which took place yesterday (Wednesday). Following the anaesthetic that was administered, he had a few drinks which made him unwell, and he was taken in to hospital as a precaution.’

Stephen was due to host the annual Big Soap Quiz, but was forced to pull out due to the bereavement, and has been replaced by former Corrie star Sally Lindsay for the 2024 programme.
