Ed Sheeran has been crowned the richest UK celebrity aged 30 or under, having amassed an estimated fortune of £170m.
The 28-year-old singer displaced Adele from the number one spot f, according to Heat magazine. Adele topped the list in 2018 with an estimated fortune of £147.5m – but she turned 31 in May so can no longer be included.
The mega successful Brit has seen his value almost double since 2018, after his fortune reportedly jumped from £94 million to a staggering £170 million. The new list claims the majority of Ed’s income comes from his Divide tour which saw the singer play 258 shows to seven million fans from March 2017 until August 2019.
The tour grossed an estimated $776.2 million (£599.4 million).
Daniel Radcliffe, 30, was second with an estimated fortune of £90m while Harry Styles, 25, is third with close to £64m in the bank.Other names on Heat’s annual rich list include Cara Delevingne and Little Mix.
