Where Did Darcey And Stacey Get Their Money?
Darcey and Stacey’s career as reality TV stars is surely one of their sources of income, which helped them accumulate an estimated net worth of $6 million. The duo first came about back in 2010 when they got their own reality series, The Twin Life. Although they filmed a single season, the show never made it on-air.
In 2017, Darcey and Stacey were cast in the Before The 90 Days series of the blockbuster TLC series 90 Day Fiancé. The twin sisters drew a lot of attention from fans because of their cheery attitudes, Barbie appearances, and wild romances. Then, they got their own show in 2020, Darcey & Stacey, after failing to find love on 90 Day Fiancé.
Fans can't get enough of TLC's on-screen antics, so it's no surprise that the show was extended for another season, and currently, it’s on its third installment. As Darcey joined the show for over four seasons, from 2017 to 2020, with a total of 51 episodes spanning those seasons, anyone can imagine that she had made a fair amount of money.
A source close to the production revealed that the cast makes around $1,000 to $1,500 per episode.
The source revealed, “90 Day Fiancé pays their American cast members $1,000 to $1,500 per episode. Even if a person is able to land a spot on the spinoff 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? Their pay doesn’t go up much more.”
For their own show, Darcey & Stacey, it is likely that the twins made quite a bit more money. Most sources state that TLC pays cast members about $15,000 per season, but given the Silva sisters’ success, odds are, their paychecks have grown significantly.

What Do Darcey And Stacey Do Apart From Reality TV?
Besides bagging cash from reality TV shows, Darcey and Stacey make a lot of money from their own business ventures. In October 2010, the twins created their fashion line House of Eleven, which started out as a store in Los Angeles. They lived there for about eight years to get the business going.
Darcey said on the TLC show, “We were in stores and stuff, we started as a high-end tier brand. Kind of known for our leggings and our joggers. Lot of celebrities wore it, we did a lot of editorials when we were in L.A.” Even though they reside in Connecticut now, their store is still open in LA.
Their brand to this day has amassed over 56, 000 followers on Instagram. Not only does it catch people’s attention, but the fashion brand has also been worn by several A-list celebrities including Jessica Alba, Demi Lovato, Nicki Minaj, and Jeannie Mai, to name a few.
After joining TLC’s reality TV shows, Darcey and Stacey have made a lot of money since then. On top of their business getting more publicity and customers, they are also co-founders of a production company Eleventh Entertainment with their father, Mike Silva. The firm produced the 2013 comedy film, White T, and a drama based on Tee Ashira’s novel, Soul Ties.
Aside from getting money from their thriving career as reality TV stars and from business ventures, it is possible that they also make cash from their promotions on social media. It is not uncommon for reality stars to generate more income this way, so it certainly would not be the first. With Darcey’s 1.2 million followers and Stacey’s 500K followers on Instagram, it is no surprise that they earn a lot as social media influencers, without having to rely on a traditional job to their bills paid.
