Former model Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell have been married for 18 years. On July 17, the couple sat down with Andy Cohen on Sirius XM, where they made an interesting revelation about their financial arrangement. During the conversation, Cohen asked Rebecca if they had a joint bank account, to which she replied,
“We keep our money completely separate.”
She went on:
“I mean there’s like a community pot.”
Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell got hitched in 2007. They welcomed twin girls, Charlie Tamara Tulip and Dolly Rebecca Rose, in 2008. According to Celebrity Net Worth, both Jerry and Rebecca have a net worth of $20 million. Besides acting, Jerry is also a show host and director.
Rebecca purchased a townhouse in New York City in 2013 for $1.95 million. This property has been put on rent with monthly earnings amounting to $22,000. The current value of the property is said to be $4 million.
Rebecca Romijn was previously married to John Stamos for almost seven years. After their legal separation, she received a 16-acre house, which is presently worth approximately $3 million.
Besides her career in acting, Rebecca also runs her jewelry line, which she introduced in 2020. The name of her venture is Charlie Dolly, after her daughters. The jewelry items are priced mostly below $1,000.
Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell have a shared fund for their children
When Andy Cohen asked Rebecca Romijn about how she and Jerry O'Connell handled their finances, she said it was one of the first serious conversations they had. Cohen mentioned the idea of keeping separate accounts, and Rebecca explained that while they did that, they also had a shared fund for their kids.
She added that they both contributed to this fund on a quarterly basis. Meanwhile, Jerry O’Connell chimed in:
“These are the best questions, Andy. This is why you are number one. I have to say we actually throttle how much money we put into that account sometimes depending on who's working more.”
Rebecca Romijn added:
“The one who’s not working gets a little bit of a break and the one who is working puts in a little more. And we really tag team with work. You know, we also decided when our girls were born that one of us would always stay home with our daughters. So, no one else is ever going to raise them.”
Andy Cohen commented that it worked well because she was busy filming Star Trek in Canada for six months each year.
Rebecca and Jerry O'Connell had their engagement in 2005. Per People Magazine, during a 2019 show, Rebecca said:
“We had a couple dates in Las Vegas and then I flew home and I needed a ride home from the airport. And I called Jerry and he drove me home and basically never left.”
During a reality show in 2022, Jerry O'Connell shared that when he first met Rebecca Romijn, he instantly loved her energy and felt a strong connection right away. She said they quickly realized they wanted to be with each other more than anyone else, making the decision clear and simple.
