What is Leah McSweeney's net worth? Fortune explored as RHONY star sues Bravo and Andy Cohen

Former Real Housewives of New York City star Leah McSweeney filed a lawsuit on February 27 against Bravo Media, Andy Cohen, NBC Universal Media, Warner Bros., Discovery, Shed Media US, and producers John Paparazzo, Lisa Shannon, and Darren Ward.

McSweeney, whose net worth is estimated to be $3.5 million, accused the defendants of creating a "rotted" workplace culture and claimed the employees being coerced into consuming alcohol. The lawsuit reads:

"Cohen's preferred workplace environment, which is fueled with substances and illicit behavior, permeates every aspect of Defendant Bravo productions."

She claimed that her producers, despite knowing about her mental health and alcohol issues, supplied her with alcohol and convinced her to take part in activities that could harm her sobriety.

Additionally, she accused Andy Cohen of using cocaine with some of the Housewives and giving them better edits on RHONY in return.
