Cast Of Hot In Cleveland: How Much Are They Worth Now?

Hot in Cleveland was TV Land’s first original scripted series, and it’s safe to say the show was a huge success! The popular sitcom ended after a generous six season run, but still remains relevant with weekly re-runs and a well remembered cast. The show hilariously tackled the taboo topics around single women over the age of 40 as they struggle through relationships and careers, with the support of a tight knit group of girlfriends. Recorded in front of a live studio audience, the show produced a lot of laughs for viewers over the years and gained a huge fan following, but where are the popular cast members today? This list takes a look at the main members of the cast of Hot in Cleveland and how much they are worth today!

Estimated Net Worth: $20 million. This 55-year-old American actress, is probably best known for her role on the sitcom, One Day At A Time, she appeared in over 200 episodes and also starred in Sydney and Cafe Americain. Her career moved further when she joined the cast of Touched by an Angel for the last two seasons and more so when she appeared  in numerous television films before settling into her popular role as Melanie Moretti on Hot in Cleveland. Her large net worth might be as a result of the fact that she was at one point married to music producer and lead guitarist of Van Halen, Eddie Van Halen, who’s net worth is around $85 million. But on her own, Valerie’s career has been validated with two Golden Globes wins and two additional nominations. She also wrote an autobiography and a follow up book in 2009.
