So just how rich is Daniela Ruah at present? According to sources, Ruah’s net worth reaches $10 million, as of early 2018, acquired mostly through her acting career, which began as a child actor in the early ’90s.
Ruah was the only child of her parents; when she was five-years-old, her family moved back to Portugal, but after her parents divorced, her father remarried and she got a stepbrother. She was raised in her parents’ Jewish religion, attended an international English-medium school, and later St. Julian School in Carcavelos, near Lisbon. She subsequently obtained her Bachelor of Arts degree in Performing Arts from London Metropolitan University in England, earning first class Honors.

The following year she took the role of Constança Valadas in the soap opera “Filha do Mar”, but then went on hiatus at the age of 18 to attend college in London, then after graduation she returned to Portugal, and went on to appear in various soap operas and series, such as “Inspector Max”, “Dei-te Quase Tudo”, “Tu e Eu” and “Casos da Vida”. In 2006 she won the “Danca Comigo” contest, the Portuguese version of “Dancing with the Stars”, then the following year she moved to the US to study acting at New York City’s Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute.
In 2009 Ruah was cast in a starring role as Special Agent Kensi Blye in the CBS television action series “NCIS: Los Angeles”, a police procedural series portraying The Naval Criminal Investigation Service’s Office of Special Projects, with the teams going undercover to spot criminal acts around LA. The series has been aired for eight seasons so far, an indication of its popularity, and Ruah’s role in the series has brought her enormous fame and has greatly contributed to her net worth, while also earning her the Portuguese Golden Globe award for Newcomer of the Year, and TV Action Icon Award 2011 of Celebrity & Stuntwomen’s Awards. She was also nominated for Teen Choice Award for Choice TV Action Actress.
In the mean time, Ruah has also participated in other projects.

In 2011 she made a guest appearance as Kensi Blye in an episode of “Hawaii Five-O, then the following year she took the role of Sofia in the World War II film “Red Tails”, all adding steadily to her net worth.
In 2013 Ruah made her theater debut as Catherine in the play “Proof”, held at LA’s Hayworth Theatre. While continuing in “NCIS”, Ruah also appeared in the short film “Excuse” in 2016, in the role of Brenda, all added to her net worth.
When it comes to her private life, Ruah has been married to stuntman David Paul Olsen since 2014; he is the brother and stunt double of Ruah’s co-star from “NCIS: Los Angeles”, Eric Christian Olsen. The couple has a son and a daughter, and the family resides in Los Angeles, California.
