Niall’s €35m fortune – and 13 more Irish celebs who are RAKING it in

Feb 22, 2016

He's currently on a break from music, but Niall Horan is under no pressure to get back to work anytime soon.

Thanks to four years at the helm of one of the world's biggest pop groups, One Direction, Mullingar man Niall has amassed a fortune worth around €35m.

That's according to the annual Sunday Independent Rich List, the latest instalment of which was published yesterday. The yearly list is a who's who of Ireland's 300 wealthiest people, from property tycoons to tech giants to film stars.

Indian-born businessman Pallonji Mistry topped the list again this year – his €14.9bn fortune from companies like Tetley Tea and Jaguar places him €6bn above his nearest rival – but of course there are some faces on there that may be a LOT more familiar to you.

Let's take a look…

U2 – €755m

Danielle Ryan – €164m
Tudors actress Danielle shares her €164m inheritance with her brother Cillian. Their late father Cathal had a share in the Ryanair fortune, started by his own dad, Tony Ryan.
