7 Little Johnstons celebs Amber Johnston and Trent Johnston have been cashing TLC checks since the show first aired in 2015. However, are they keeping all the TLC money from their kids?
7 Little Johnstons: Amber Johnston And Trent Johnston Have Been Cashing TLC Checks A Long Time
As longtime 7 Little Johnstons fans know, the TLC show has been on the air since 2015. Nearly a decade and 14 seasons later, that amounts to a lot of TLC checks to cash. When you’re on TLC this long, it’s an incredibly lucrative endeavor. This is especially true when the checks all go to one family, as is the case with the Johnstons.
On average, TLC cuts a check that amounts to roughly ten percent of the production budget per episode. This comes out to roughly $25k to $40k that goes into Trent Johnston and Amber Johnston’s pockets per episode. When you multiply that by ten or more episodes per season, the money certainly adds up.
Are TLC Mom And Dad Keeping The Money From Kids?
After 14 seasons of 7 Little Johnstons so far, a lot of viewers question where all the money has gone. More specifically, many viewers wonder if TLC pays Trent and Amber with one fat check. If so, viewers also question how that money is distributed, if at all.
As 7 Little Johnstons fans have seen, both Trent Johnston and Amber Johnston are controlling parents. So, it would surprise no one if Trent and Amber are hoarding the TLC cash. Perhaps they dish it out in small doses like an allowance, even with their now adult children.
With 7 Little Johnstons being on the air for as long as it has, it’s clear the TLC money is going somewhere. Naturally, viewers are curious about how that money is split.
