Pop icon Dua Lipa tops Heat Rich List as Bridget Jones star Leo Woodall and actress Anya Taylor-Joy rise through the ranks — with a Love Island favourite breaking into the top 30

Pop superstar Dua Lipa topped the Heat Rich List 2025 on Tuesday – as the UK and Ireland’s 30 wealthiest under 30 celebrities were named.

The singer, 30, – now worth a whopping £129m – has had a huge year with her ongoing Radical Optimism tour and an engagement to actor Callum Turner.

‘Manifesting is a big thing for me’ said Dua last year and it’s clearly working as she has well and truly levitated herself into the mega-rich club.

The last year has been her biggest money-spinner yet, thanks to her £83m-grossing tour.

She’s also got her own podcast and book club, acting career, plus partnerships with Porsche and Versace.

Nine new entries in the top 30 include singer Holly Humberstone, actress Anya Taylor-Joy and actor Leo Woodall while elsewhere Steven Bartlett was crowned the UK’s richest podcaster.

Meanwhile, as podcasting booms, many voices are proving there’s big money in the mic.

Steven Bartlett tops the list at £36m with Diary of A CEO making £15m annually from advertising, with Steven revealing he personally pockets nearly £1m yearly from the podcast.

Trailing behind is Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch at £30m with That Peter Crouch Podcast being the UK’s sixth most popular with the footballing legend also co-hosting The Therapy Crouch with wife Abbey.

The list also includes Chris and Rosie Ramsey, the savvy South Shields couple who have turned the success of their Sh**ged Married Annoyed married life podcast into a franchise, James Acaster and Ed Gamble, the comedy duo whose podcast Off Menu has been downloaded 120m times since 2018 and Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook who have the world’s most listened-to history pod, The Rest is History.

Love Islander Amber recently hit headlines after her Strictly partner Nikita Kuzmin was spotted kissing her on the forehead.

The star, who is in a relationship with West End actor Ben Joyce, was pictured sharing a warm embrace with Ukrainian professional Nikita, 27, on Friday during a break from rehearsals at a north London studio.

Bundled up in warm clothes, the pair paused for coffee, and Nikita gave Amber an affectionate kiss on the head ahead of Saturday night’s Icon Week.

Amber previously told the Daily Mail that she and Nikita had quickly struck up a close bond, having only hours to learn their first routine together when the actress replaced Dani Dyer at the last minute following her ankle injury.

The star avoided a shock early exit during Sunday’s results show, when all four judges chose to keep Amber in the competition over Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, the latest celebrity to leave the series.

Now, sources close to Amber have reacted to the intimate photographs, saying any suggestion she has fallen victim to the show’s ‘curse’ is nonsense.

A source close to Amber told the Daily Mail: ‘Everyone thought Amber would be panicked and worried about being in the dance-off, but that’s not the case.

‘She was not surprised to be there at all. With Strictly it’s an entertainment show, it’s anyone’s game. She actually had a feeling on Saturday that it would be her time in the bottom two.

‘But she’s going into this week feeling positive. There’s no concern or panic from her at all, and she’s still really enjoying her Strictly experience.

‘For Amber, it has never been about winning the show, she’s working hard, she’s humbled, and she feels particularly grateful for all the support she is receiving from the theatre community.’

They added: ‘It’s ridiculous for anyone to believe there’s anything going on between Amber and Nikita.

‘The pictures didn’t affect them at all because they know the truth. Amber was unfazed by it.’

Nikita, who is in a relationship with model Lauren Jaine, was photographed kissing Amber on the head following reports the pair have ‘sizzling chemistry.’

The pictures were taken last Friday after the duo spent more than eight hours training the Cha Cha Cha at a studio in north London.

The full heat Rich List appears in this week’s heat magazine, on sale from Tuesday 28 October and online at heatworld.com.
