If you’ve ever wanted to work as a producer on The Bachelor, your first thought might be about the money. Although it would be great to meet some of the stars, you do have bills to pay and groceries to buy. Just how much money do producers on The Bachelor make? Read on for more.
The richest stars on ‘The Bachelor’
The Bachelor has had some wealthy stars appear on the show. Some of the richest stars on The Bachelor were Andrew Firestone, with a net worth of $50 million; Prince Lorenzo Borghese, with a net worth of $50 million; and Travis Stork, with a net worth of $8 million.
The richest stars on ‘The Bachelorette’

The Bachelor cast
Stars of The Bachelorette and The Bachelor make roughly $100,000 for the season, according to reality show blogger Stephen Carbone. Contestants, however, do not get paid. This could be a problem considering some of them leave their jobs just to appear on the reality show and get their shot at love—or at least 15 minutes of fame. According to Hollywood Life, one of the highest-paid Bachelorette stars was Emily Maynard, who reportedly received $250,000.
How some of the contestants make money
Before appearing on The Bachelorette, Rachel Lindsay (The Bachelorette season 13) worked as an attorney. Shayne Lamas (The Bachelor season 12) earns some of her money from acting. This is no surprise considering her father and grandparents were also actors. Jillian Harris (The Bachelorette season five) is a Canadian television personality and interior designer.
How Much Do Producers on ‘The Bachelor’ Make?
Producers at ABC, home of The Bachelor, make an average of $87,000 a year, according to Glassdoor. The highest estimated salary is about $121,000. According to the website, 80% of employees would recommend ABC to a friend and 90% approve of the company’s CEO.
What employees thought about working for ABC
If you’re wondering about the benefits, there are plenty. Some of the perks of working for ABC include employee discounts and a pension plan. One employee on Glassdoor described the pension plan as “amazing.” Another said the plan was “good” and that ABC is “a great company to work for.”
As can be expected, not all the reviews were glowing. One employee said the company’s work-life balance was “really bad.” Overall, ABC’s Glassdoor review was a 3.7 out of a possible 5 stars. It seems like there’s room for improvement, but most employees are happy—at least that’s what it looks like from the Glassdoor reviews. These comments are anonymous so there’s always the possibility that a manager or someone from human resources is filling out some of the surveys and giving overly positive reviews.
