How Rich Is Rudy Giuliani?

Rudy Giuliani, who is being sued by his ex-wife for more than a quarter of a million dollars, has an estimated net worth of $40 million.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, the former mayor of New York City publicly disclosed his earnings when he was running for president in 2007.

At the time, documents showed his net worth was at least $18 million, and could be as high as $70 million. The disclosure showed Giuliani earned $11.4 million in 2006 alone after performing 124 paid speeches. 

More details about the 78-year-old’s wealth came to light during his divorce proceedings with his second wife, Judith. The couple reportedly had six homes, and typically spent $230,000 per month to fund their lifestyle. Immediately after their separation in 2018, Giuliani agreed to pay Judith $43,000 per month in support. However, she was seeking an increase to $63,000 per month, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

On Tuesday, the New York Post’s Page Six revealed Judith filed documents in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, alleging her former husband was withholding $262,000 he should have paid her under the terms of their divorce settlement. The payment was for their Palm Beach, Florida, house, housekeeper and private club fees.

In a sworn affidavit, Judith accused Giuliani of owing her $140,000 for their South Lake Drive, Palm Beach, property alone. In 2019, the house was listed on the market in 2019 for $3.3 million. While the sale of the lux condo did not go through, Judith claims in the documents Giuliani “is required to pay me $200,000 regardless of whether or not the property has been sold” per the divorce agreement. According to Judith, Giuliani has so far only given her $60,000.

Giuliani “has made inconsistent and sporadic payments to me, including a $10,000 check in June 2021 that was returned due to insufficient funds,” the filing read. 

Judith also accused her ex-husband of allegedly failing to “pay his half of the annual club membership dues.”

“I had no choice but to pay his share of the dues… in order to remain in good standing with the clubs,” she says in court papers.

According to Judith, Giuliani is capable of paying her the $262,000 she is demanding.

“He owns multiple properties in New York City and Palm Beach [and it seems] he has significant earnings from his media-related contracts and deals,” she said.
