Has Abigail Shapiro's Career And Net Worth Benefited From Her Brother Ben's Support? (2024)

Ben Shapiro's sister Abigail Shapiro is a super successful YouTuber and social media influencer who shares her life as a mother and wife under the brand Classically Abby. While Abigail Shapiro has been controversial at times, she has remained in the public eye for quite a long time.

Even though people are endlessly fascinated by this famous family, they don't share every single tiny detail of their lives. Ben Shapiro's wife Mor values her privacy, for example. Abigail Shapiro might be posting videos and reels on a regular basis, but there are still some things about her that people are eager to know about. Since Abigail has always seemed to be close to her brother Ben, people wonder if his celebrity and influence have been a good thing for her career and the amount of money that she makes.

What Is Abigail Shapiro's Net Worth?

Abigail Shapiro is definitely a public figure at this point. She has almost 96,000 Instagram followers and over 110,000 subscribers on YouTube.

Still, while there is some information about her brother Ben Shapiro's net worth, there isn't as much out there about his sister's finances.

Ben Shapiro gets paid a lot from The Daily Wire, the website that he runs alongside Jordan Peterson, and according to Celebrity Net Worth, he has a $50 million net worth.

However, the publication doesn't have net worth information available for Abigail Shapiro. Since she has almost 100,000 followers on Instagram, though, people can guess that she is making good money from her platform.

In a 2018 interview with Vox, Joe Gagliese, who runs the company Viral National alongside Mathew Micheli, talked about the kind of cash that people can earn on social media. Gagliese said, "People with smaller followings [who are known as nanoinfluencers] can make between $30,000 and $60,000 a year. The micro-influencers can make anywhere from $40,000 to $100,000. Celeb influencers make way, way more."

Has Abigail Shapiro's Brother Ben Shapiro's Celebrity Helped Her Career?

Since Abigail Shapiro has built a successful brand, it's possible to say that she would still be doing well even if she wasn't related to Ben Shapiro. At the same time, though, it's hard to argue with the fact that being Ben Shapiro's sister has given her a permanent place in the spotlight.

The Classically Abby YouTube Channel and Instagram brand is all about "Classic Living" and "Traditional Values," as Abigail wrote in her Instagram bio.

In the "About" section of her YouTube Channel, Abigail shared her hope for the platform. She wrote, "I started Classically Abby with a dream of creating a community that I never had while I was in college. I had always wanted to find influencers who viewed the world from a classic perspective. I wanted to watch women who cared about their appearance, demeanor, and character, rather than glorifying their 'mess.'"

She continued, ""I wanted to learn how to embrace womanhood COMPLETELY in the modern era! It was then that I knew I needed to use my experience to give other women the community I lacked. As a wife, mama, fashion enthusiast, and self-taught makeup artist, I knew that I could be the first woman to bring you the feminine content you craved with a classic twist."

Abigail shares videos about dating, motherhood, fashion, and home decor. She has a video about living in a small house and going on a plane trip with her toddler son without using an iPad to entertain him. She also sometimes answers questions from fans.

Abigail's brand involves sharing her perspective on being a woman. In August 2023, she shared a clip from one of her YouTube videos on Instagram called "The problem with the girl boss mentality." She explained, "I put my self worth in my career success... You build up in your mind that your only sign of worthiness is having been successful in your job."

She explained, "And that was really upsetting because that meant that every time I didn't get an audition or I didn't get a part I felt awful about myself."

Abigail continued that, in her opinion, it's a bad idea for women to think this way because of how they will feel if something goes wrong.

When she mentioned getting disappointing news about auditions in her video, Abigail Shapiro was talking about her background as a singer. While she doesn't focus on this part of her life on her platform, she does mention it from time to time. According to The Sun, she went to the Manhattan School of Music and the University of Southern California.

While Ben Shapiro has said a few things about his sister over the years, Abigail Shapiro doesn't seem to talk about her brother much. She did mention his business partner Jordan Peterson, though.

In December 2022, Abigail posted a photo of herself, her husband Jacob, and Jordan Peterson on Instagram. She wrote in the caption "Would you believe we saw Jordan Peterson speak the same day we had our civil wedding?" She continued, "Jacob and I had to get civilly married three months before our religious wedding because we lived long-distance from each other. It was a whole complicated mess, but we ended up getting legally married in March."

She added, "But that day, we also chose to celebrate by seeing Jordan Peterson speak, which was pretty awesome. Haven't seen him since then, but man, I'd like to! He's a pretty cool dude."

Since Abigail Shapiro mentioned waiting to hear back about auditions, it's possible that she worked toward a singing career. It sounds like she decided to make a big career change and felt that sharing on her platform Classically Abby would be a good fit for her. She definitely seems happy posting about her life with her family and sharing her opinions on various topics, whether she's giving her fanbase advice about going on dates or talking about stay-at-home motherhood.
