Chantelle Houghton leaving Funky Buddha nightclub, London, Britain - 21 Aug 2007

OMG! CBB's Chantelle Houghton's a millionaire

She's now nearly as rich as Jade Goody

Thursday, 25 October 2007

Chantelle Houghton has reportedly become a millionaire.

The 24-year-old made her name on Celeb BB, where she hooked up with ex-hubby Samuel Preston.

Figures from Companies House show Chantelle has earned £925,615 in just a year – making her well on the way to becoming as wealthy as BB's motormouth Jade Goody.

With her other ventures, Chantelle's got a pot of over £1m.

The Cinderella-to-celeb's fortune - which started with £25,000 from CBB - is believed to have come from TV appearances, a fashion magazine column and a £300,000 autobiography deal.

'She's done incredibly well to maximise earnings,' a source tells the Sun. 'I don't think any business analyst would have said she could make so much so quickly with so little business experience.'

See Chantelle Houghton sing on Celebrity Big Brother in this video - maybe a single is next...
