Celebrity TV chef and author, “Irish cooking queen” Rachel Allen’s net worth is estimated to be over $2 million (£1.6 million).

Born in Dublin to Hallfríður Reichenfeld (a native of Iceland) and Brian O’Neill on March 21, 1972, Irish celebrity chef Rachel Allen had a ‘silver-spoon’ childhood. Her Irish dad had inherited a shoe manufacturing business called Winstanley, while her mum ran two garment stores in Dublin.
