Tricia Helfer Net Worth in 2026: The Honest Answer
There is no publicly available audited figure for Tricia Helfer’s net worth.
No tax return, court filing, or audited financial statement confirms a total. Celebrity wealth sites publish estimates only, and those estimates change over time.
- The old version of this article stated $10 million.
- Celebrity Net Worth now lists Tricia Helfer at $5 million.
- That $5 million figure is still an estimate, not a verified fact.
Readers should treat any single net-worth number for Helfer as an estimate. What can be verified is a modelling and acting career spanning more than 30 years.

What Is Tricia Helfer Doing in 2026?
Helfer plays Molly Pigeon in USA Network’s Anna Pigeon.
The series premiered on August 7, 2026, with Tracy Spiridakos in the title role as a National Park Service ranger. Helfer plays Anna’s sister, Molly.
USA Network renewed Anna Pigeon for a second season on October 7, 2026, two days before the season 1 finale aired on October 9, 2026. No season 2 premiere date or confirmed returning cast beyond the renewal announcement has been verified for this update, so no return date is stated here.
Helfer was also announced in October 2026 as the lead in Devour, an upcoming body-horror film directed by Erica Orofino. She plays Luisa, a former professional figure skater. No release date has been set for Devour.
Her recent film work also includes Primitive War (2025) and voice work as Mila in Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft (2024–2025).
How Does Tricia Helfer Earn Money?
Her income comes from modelling, television acting, film acting, and voice work.
The main sources are:
- A decade of international fashion modelling (1992–2002)
- A regular role across four seasons of Battlestar Galactica
- Series-regular and recurring television roles, including Lucifer and Van Helsing
- Voice roles in major video game series

No salary, contract, or per-episode pay figure for Helfer has been publicly verified.
Is Tricia Helfer Still Married?
No. Helfer is divorced.
She married lawyer Jonathan Marshall in 2003, after meeting him at a mutual friend’s birthday party. They separated in May 2017.
Helfer filed for divorce in January 2018, citing irreconcilable differences. The divorce was settled in 2019.
This corrects the old article, which contradicted itself in three places. One section said she had never been married. Another said she was still married to Marshall since 2002. A third said she had been married since 2009 and had two children. None of those versions is correct.
Marshall is a lawyer, not an actor. The old article’s claim that he was an actor is removed.
Does Tricia Helfer Have Children?
No children are listed in Helfer’s public biographies.
This update does not repeat the old article’s contradictory claims — that she had no children, and, in another section, that she had two children with Marshall. Neither claim was sourced, and no reliable source confirms children.
