Judge Judy, whose real name is Judith Sheindlin, has already said goodbye to her show "Judge Judy" after their final taping in early April.

Currently, the host has been relaxing in her Naples, Florida, home with her husband Jerry.

Judge Judy's court show made her a cultural icon after becoming the longest-serving judge in courtroom-themed show history since it aired in 1996.

In 2015, Sheindlin even earned herself a spot on the Guinness World Records.

Judge Judy Salary and Net Worth 2021

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Judge Judy's salary is $47 million per season with 52 days of filming. She is TV's highest-paid host.

The four-time Emmy Award-winning host also talked about how she was able to secure that kind of salary, compared to other TV hosts.

She told the outlet, "Almost 20 years ago, I told the company that I worked for this: 'I want to be more of a partner. Don't treat me as a paid employee. I could make this show without you.'"

The 78-year-old even recalled telling the executives that they couldn't make history without her.

"I can take Judy Sheindlin anywhere else. And good luck with you if you can find somebody else. Otherwise, let's share the gift that this program has brought to both of us."

As of 2021, Judge Judy Sheindlin has a reported net worth of $445 million.
