Back in 2013, Tv Guide mentioned that RuPaul was on the list of highest-paid reality tv-stars because of the whopping $50,000 per episode that he makes on Drag Race. Each season has about 14 to 16 episodes each season which is about $700,000 per season.

The 14-time Emmy Award winner, who presides over the mega successful “RuPaul's Drag Race” TV empire, has been married for over seven years to Wyoming ranch owner Georges LeBar. The longtime couple, who have been together since meeting at the now-defunct New York City Limelight nightclub in 1994, have an open marriage.
That's because RuPaul's husband is much more low-key than his spouse. While many celeb couples consist of two megastars, this marriage is a little different: one partner is a drag star and reality TV host, and the other is a rancher.
RuPaul met painter Georges LeBar in 1994 at the Limelight nightclub in New York City. They married in January 2017. They have an open marriage; RuPaul has said he would not want to "put restraints" on the person he loves.
