Kendall Jenner and Cristiano Ronaldo are revealed as Instagram’s highest earners

It looks like Kendall Jenner and not Kylie Jenner will be topping the list of Instagram’s highest earning women this year, as the supermodel, 24, is revealed as the highest ranking female on the list of the year’s biggest social media money-makers.

A list, compiled by Buzzbingo.com , puts the stunning model at a fortune of around £12.7 million from Instagram over the last 12 months, which is four times more than her younger sister Kylie.

As well as this, each post of Kendall’s is said to be worth a whopping £489,000, meaning the Instagram sensation and sister of Kim Kardashian has been raking in huge sums of money on each sponsored post.

Kendall’s big earnings put her behind Cristiano Ronaldo who topped the charts with £38.3 million as Instagram earnings.

But, perhaps surprisingly, Kylie falls in at eighth place, with the billionaire makeup tycoon achieving earnings of £3 million from Instagram.

Kylie, however, does make more money per post than Kendall, with fees amounting to around £1.01 million.

The top Brit on the list was David Beckham, who landed in fourth place behind Kendall.



Becks is said to have made around £8.6 million from Instagram with every post reportedly bringing him in around £286,000.
