Sanela’s net worth is out of this world

According to celebrity net worth, Sanela’s estimated to be worth, wait for it… $300,000,000. Yes, you read that right. While the majority of this fortune has come through her divorce from her ex-husband Rodger, she has also made a lot of it herself through her different businesses.

Sanela now lives a lavish lifestyle in Malibu, California in a beautiful 3-acre clifftop home with many celebrity neighbours. No wonder Bravo nabbed her up as a new housewife!

The philanthropist was married to Barclay’s banker Rodger Jenkins for over a decade and during this time they had three beautiful children together. Sanela described their divorce as “the happiest divorce ever” – and no wonder, she made close to 300 million dollars out of it.

Sanela is a philanthropist and actively involved in charity work

Aside from running and owning multiple businesses, Sanela dedicates a lot of her spare time to being a philanthropist and helping others in need. In 2002 she opened the Iris Catic Foundation in memory of her brother who was killed during the war by the Serbians.

Aside from this, in 2010 she also founded another organisation with actor Sean Penn called the Jenkins-Penn Haitian Relief Organization which was created to provide emergency medical care for victims of the earthquake.

Jenkins has also held fundraisers for the Elton John Aids Foundation and even posted bail for the former Bosnian president who was detained in the UK on a Serbian extradition request.
