Ayesha Curry has an estimated net worth of $16 million, built on top of an up-and-coming TV career.

Aside from being a cookbook author, Stephen Curry’s wife has appeared on several TV shows. Although she did not receive any formal training, her love for food and cooking paved the way for her own Food Network show in 2016 called “Ayesha's Home Kitchen,” per Celebrity Net Worth.

Ayesha authored the book "The Seasoned Life: Food, Family, Faith, and the Joy of Eating Well,” in the same year. She also has her own Youtube channel, which currently has 574,000 subscribers.

She has expanded her online success to building a restaurant. In 2017, Curry collaborated with chef Michael Mina and debuted International Smoke, a pop-up restaurant that offers cuisines influenced by Mexico, South Korea, India and Thailand. International Smoke has branches in Las Vegas, Houston, Florida and San Francisco.

Aside from food programs, the 31-year-old appeared on “Hannah Montana” and “Good Luck Charlie,” “Guy's Grocery Games,” “Chopped Junior,” “FabLife,” “The Real,” “The Chew,” “Rachael Ray,” and “Ballers,” among others.

Curry made the headlines recently after posting a picture on her social media account showing off her new platinum blonde hair. The post gained polarizing comments as bashers claimed she was trying hard to rock the “Caucasian look.” Meanwhile, when Ayesha posted a bikini photo earlier this year, which showed her weight transformation, bashers quickly took a swipe at her previous comments about people who barely wear clothes, a report from Women’s Health revealed.

Curry also received backlash last year when she tweeted that the NBA finals were “rigged.” The Golden State Warriors battled the Cleveland Cavaliers at the time. The Warriors held a 3-1 series advantage but the LeBron James-led squad managed a miracle of a comeback to win the championship to the tune of 4-3.

Curry later claimed in an interview published by NBC Sports that she got carried away by the moment. “I regret the way that I voiced how hurt I was. I felt hurt for [Steph], and I didn’t mean to offend anybody,” she added.

Steph Curry and the Warriors are looking to bounce back next season. Experts are claiming Golden State is one of the teams fighting for the championship next season if everyone in the lineup is healthy and focused.
