Bradley Walsh has given his son Barney half of his fortune.
The Chase host has a close bond with 25-year-old Barney so much so that he has made his a director at two of his companies. The 62-year-old owns Barnstormer Holdings Ltd and Wingit Productions Ltd and they are not short of cash.
According to The Mirror, at the start of this month, Barney was added to the board of Barnstormer Holdings as a director and was put in joint control of the business alongside his dad. It is believed that the company has assets worth around £1.86 million.
Barney was added a director to Bradley's other business, Wingit Productions, in March 2020.
Wingit Productions is the company which is behind the former Wheel of Fortune host's TV earnings - such as The Chase and its spin-offs. The last set of accounts showed that the business had over £12.5 million of assets.
Bradley and Barney have their own series on ITV - Bradley Walsh and Son: Breaking Dad, which has the synopsis of their "coming of age road trip" around the world. The first two seasons saw the duo drive across the United States and partaking in various wild adventures along the way.
Those activities include a skydive, feeding alligators, ghost hunting and attempting to rodeo to hysterical results. The most recent two seasons saw the pair embark on a 3,000-mile trip around Europe, still with their crazy antics.
Last month, Bradley joked he "had enough" of popular ITV quiz show The Chase during an episode, with Mark Labbett quick to quip that he has already lined up his replacement. The comedic moment came when, after a wrong answer was given by a contestant, Walsh said he had "had enough" of the hit game show.
In April, he was forced to apologise after breaking part of the show's set after becoming overexcited during a high-stakes moment. The gaffe had all the contestants in hysterics as he quickly apologised.
"I've cracked it, I'm so sorry. Have we got a spare?" after smashing his hand down onto a table. If you win the £35k, can you lend me a couple of quid?" Bradley joked to the contestant as he admitted his error.
