Top reality television stars earn between $5,000 and $15,000 for a single Instagram post, according to research conducted by Mediakix. The average reality TV star in this tier posted 7.4 sponsored posts per month, which means on the low end they would earn $37,000 per month, or $444,000 in a year, from social media marketing. If their sponsored posts pay in the mid-to-high range, they could earn even more: $888,000 to $1.33 million per year. See how much these high-powered reality stars can really make from social media.

She has 1.1 million followers on Instagram alone.

Tilley has gained sponsorships from brands that include Charmin and Mural Cerveza. In the past, she has posted an average of three sponsored posts every month, according to Mediakix, which means she can earn up to $45,000 in a given month.

Lauren Bushnell

* Estimated cost per post: $5,000 to $15,000

Lauren Bushnell won over viewers — and “Bachelor” Ben Higgins — when she appeared on season 20 of the show.

The lifestyle blogger is one of the most followed “Bachelor” contestants, with 1.3 million followers.

Bushnell posts an average of four sponsored posts per month, according to Mediakix. That’s an average monthly income of up to $60,000 just for her Instagram activity. That adds up to $720,000 per year — so she’s definitely made up for the high cost of being on “The Bachelor.” In the past, her sponsors have included Secret, ThirdLove, McDonald’s and ThredUP.

Jade Roper

Fans loved her redemptive love story, and the reality-star-turned-podcast-host now has over 1.2 million followers.
