Who could’ve imagined that a sitcom featuring four elderly friends would change the course of a whole network. NBC had been having a tough time gaining traction, but that’s when it happened. Susan Harris broke the stereotype of television entertainment mostly featuring younger actors by creating Golden Girls.

She took interest in the concept saying it was a demographic that was never explored. Showing the bond of friendship between a group of women in their golden years turned out to be her best idea yet.

After airing for seven years, the critically acclaimed sitcom Golden Girls finished its run. You might be late to the party, but I’ve got you covered. Below you’ll find who exactly were the Golden Girls, how old they were, and what was their net worth.

Beatrice Arthur began her career as a stage performer. She later rose to fame after starring in the popular sitcom All in the Family. That wouldn’t be it though, she went on to feature in her biggest work yet, Golden Girls.

The Golden Girls star played the lead role of Dorothy Zbornak, a teacher. She was born on May 13, 1922, in New York City. That makes her the second oldest among the cast.

The First Lady of Hollywood was the most adored amongst the cast. She was the eldest amongst the Golden Girls and lived the longest as well.

She led a hearty career, appearing in all the latest films like Toy Story, Trouble, and The Lorax. She portrayed Rose Nylund, a Norwegian American woman who moved to Miami after her Husband’sdeath.

The Golden Girls star passed away recently on New Year’s Eve 2021. You might not get to see her anymore on TV, but her innumerable works will always be there to fill in that void.

Net Worth — $75 million

Betty White appeared on multiple TV shows and feature films. She had the longest TV career of any woman in America. You might say she had a lot of time to make that $75 million fortune.

2. Estelle Getty

Age: 84 (July 25, 1923 - July 22, 2008)

Estella Gettleman played the veteran Sophia Petrillo in Golden Girls. She won a Primetime Emmy for her splendid performance.

Being born in 1923 makes her the third oldest among her bunch. Aside from her famed sitcom, she appeared in multiple notable projects such as the film Mask, and Stuart Little.

Net Worth — $8 million

In comparison with Betty, Estelle’s career wasn’t as long. Estelle still managed to make a pretty penny of $8 million due to her plentiful roles. She capped off her acting career by appearing in the drama series It's Like, You Know...

1. Rue McClanahan

Age: 76 (February 21, 1934 – June 3, 2010)

Rue was the youngest member of the Golden Girls’ cast. Intriguingly, she already had a knack for comedic acts before getting the chance to star in the sitcom.

Rue played the licentious Blanche Elizabeth Devereaux. You might say that her initials didn’t add up to “BED” for nothing. Her eccentric character ended up being received pretty well, leading her to win a much-deserved Emmy.

Net Worth — $5 million

Rue had a pretty decorated career as well, but she leaned mostly towards guest appearances and cameos. That still was able to nag her an impressive sum of $5 million.
