Gary Valentine Net Worth is $3 Million (as of 2020)
Gary Valentine net worth is currently estimated at $2.5 million and you may think this is a huge fortune. But it seems like pocket-money, compared to the fortune of Gary’s younger brother, Kevin James. You may know Kevin from his role on television series The King of Queens (for the portrayal of Doug Heffernan, the leading character, he has been nominated for Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series) and numerous movies, like I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry, Paul Blart: Mall Cop (also written and produced by Kevin), Here Comes the Boom, Grown Ups and Zookeeper (also writer and producer). The younger brother has been way more successful in both the movie industry and on television, hence it is not surprising that his fortune is much bigger than Gary Valentine net worth: as for the day, Kevin has some $80 million in capital and assets. But enough about him, let’s talk about Gary.
