What Is Sofía Vergara’s Net Worth? See How the ‘Modern Family’ Star Earned Her Fortune

Sofía Vergara is the definition of fabulous.

Aside from giving us all the fashion inspiration on our IG feeds (have you seen this star-studded selfie?!), the model and actress also gave us the gift of Gloria Delgado-Pritchett—by far one of the most memorable characters on Modern Family. But did you know that the famous role made Vergara the highest-paid actress in Hollywood? If, like us, you’re curious to see a full breakdown of Sofía Vergara’s net worth, keep reading for details on her salary, business ventures and more.

According to Celebrity Net Worth, Vergara is currently worth $180 million—a significant increase from her net worth of $43 million in 2020. Forbes included her among the World’s 100 Most Powerful Women in 2015, and in 2020, she was listed among the highest-paid celebrities in the world, making her one of just two actresses who made the top 100.

Believe it or not, Vergara earned just $30,000 per episode during the first three seasons, but her salary got some major boosts over time. By season six, she was making over $190,000 for each episode (roughly $4 million per season). And in 2018, Vergara started earning $500,000 for each episode, which means she brought in a cool $12 million each year for the final three seasons.

According to Forbes, the Colombian star has an eight-figure annual income, which means she earns at least $10 million per year as a judge. Vergara officially joined the show in February 2020, during its 15th season.

From Pepsi and CoverGirl to Head & Shoulders, Vergara has landed endorsements with nearly two dozen brands, which accounted for roughly half of her income in 2016 alone. And according to Forbes, out of her total earnings between 2011 and 2016 ($158 million), over 60 percent came from endorsement and licensing deals.

With her licensing agreements, Vergara actually gets a royalty fee, plus a percentage of the total revenue if a certain number of products are sold. Per Forbes, this was the case during her collaboration with Ninja, a coffee-maker brand that wound up with a cool $197 million in revenue during the partnership.

Vergara partnered with Kmart and announced her new clothing line for women in 2011, which earned her at least seven figures each year before she ended the deal four years later. But fortunately for us, Vergara returned to the retail business in 2019 and teamed up with Walmart to launch her denim line, Sofia Jeans. In the words of Forbes, her brand “sold enough jeans to be four times taller than the Eiffel Tower.” Translation? This makes up a huge amount of her total net worth.
