Kristine Leahy Net Worth $2 Million
From an early age, Kristine was interested in sports, but not a good enough player, so she started learning about reporting sports. She went to Prairie Ridge High School located in Chrystal Lake, Illinois, and after matriculation enrolled at Boston University, finishing her studies with a Bachelor of Science in Journalism degree.
Following her graduation, Kristine sent applications to a number of stations, and landed a position with sports radio station WEEI in Boston. She remained there for the next two years, gaining greatly needed knowledge for her career, and then became an official reporter of the Boston Celtics and Celtics.com. Soon after, Kristine found her place at FOX Boston, covering all Boston sports teams.
After her portfolio was rich enough with experience, Kristine left for Los Angeles and found herself working for a number of stations, including Turner Sports, covering March Madness as a sideline reporter, among other engagements. She then became a part of several CB affiliated sports stations, such as CBS LA news, which helped increased her net worth.
Then she attained her first television position, as a sideline reporter for American Ninja Warrior on NBC, and after a couple of successful years was promoted to the position of a co-host of the popular show, further increasing her net worth. In 2015 she became Colin Heard’s co-host in his own show “The Herd”, and since then has become one of the most prominent women sports reporters and hosts. Because of her new position, she got into a feud with LaVar Ball, after Ball’s appearance in the popular show, when he made sexist comments towards Kristine. The feud has continued, and in November 2017 she also made critiques towards CNN for them inviting Ball to one of their shows, in order to discuss his feud with US President Donald Trump. Many have supported her, encouraging her to stay true in the pursuit of an apology from the USA President.
When it comes to her personal life, Kristine is in a relationship with Aaron Hines, a professional health and fitness trainer. Though there were rumors that she and her colleague Collin were in a relationship, both denied those speculations.
