Actor Jensen Ackles has amassed a sizable net worth through acting. He was paid well early on in his carrer for his roles of Eric Brady in Days of Our Lives, Alec McDowell in Dark Angel, and Dean Winchester in Supernatural. His appearances in Supernatural earned him a $175,000 salary per episode. Jensen Ackles’ net worth is estimated to b $8 million, as of 2023.
Ackles originally planned to pursue a college degree in sports medicine at Texas Tech University. He had thought that he could become a physical therapist, yet later he changed his mind. He set his life on the path of acting and put everything he could into it, including moving to Hollywood when he could hardly afford it. It proved to be the right decision and after some struggle he began to be cast in small roles and earn enough to support himself.
Even before he became famous, let alone rich, Jensen dated several attractive women, including Jessica Simpson, Joanna Krupa and Tania Saulnier. Then in 2009, Jensen became engaged with his long-term girlfriend Danneel Harris. A year later in 2010, Jensen and Danneel were married and remain together in 2022. In 2013 Danneel gave birth to their daughter, Justice Jay Ackles. Then in 2016, they were blessed with twins, Zeppelin Bram Ackles and Arrow Rhodes Ackles.
Jensen and Danneel have invested large portions of their earnings into luxury real estates and renovations, an appropriate way to grow their net worth as they both focused on their careers. In 2012, they listed their Los Angeles mansion for $3.5 million. They originally bought the property in 2009 for $2.4 million.
Jensen and Danneel later purchased a property in the prestigious area of Malibu, California. The couple bought the home for $4.8 million and after renovating it, in 2014, they listed it for $7 million.
