Here's How Much Ant Anstead Is Really Worth

Ant Anstead is best known to Americans as the new husband of Christina Anstead, whose HGTV mega-hits Flip or Flop and spin-off Christina on the Coast catapulted her to stardom. But, in the UK, Ant Anstead is a beloved TV presenter, car enthusiast, author, and semi-professional soccer player, and is a celeb in his own right.

The Devon native first came to prominence on Channel 4 series For the Love of Cars before joining Wheeler Dealers as co-host in 2017, and is also featured on Building Cars Live and Most Expensive Cars. In 2018, his book, Cops and Robbers: The Story of the British Police Car, was released. He actually worked as a police constable himself, and later, as a member of the Tactical Firearms Team, was commended for two acts of bravery during his service, so the man has certainly kept busy.

Ant Anstead has worked several different jobs over the years

Speaking to UK publication Influx, Anstead credits the force with making him into the man he is today. "I can honestly say, it's the best decision I have ever made. I loved being in the police," he remembered, crediting his time there with helping him to mature quicker. It prepared him for a life on TV, too, as Anstead reasons, "When you're standing in-front of someone armed — that's real fear — it kind of makes standing on stage or in front of a camera easy. I always remind myself of that, and how lucky I am to being doing what I do."

Anstead left the police following the birth of his daughter, whom he shares, along with his son, with first wife Louise. Christina's kids, meanwhile, can't get enough of their new stepfather. "My kids love him," she gushed to People, noting her two song particularly enjoy "doing boy stuff" with Anstead while daughter Taylor encouraged her to marry him even while the car enthusiast's divorce was still being finalized. They all settled down as one big happy family in the couple's new $4.1 million home, which they purchased in 2018 according to The OC Register. The happy couple can certainly afford it, as Celebrity Net Worth puts Ant Anstead's current value at $5 million.
