After breaking into what was once an all-boys club in the 1980s. Female rappers really came into their own in the ’90s. The ladies of hip-hop began influencing everything from fashion, attitudes, and the culture of music. Two women who were giants in the industry for several years were Lil’ Kim and Foxy Brown. Then, just before the decade came to an end, a rapper named Eve stepped into the game and started topping the charts with her tracks.

Eve became one of the best-selling female rappers of all time and only the third woman in history to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200. After four albums and her own TV show, fans wanted to know what else Eve has been up to.

Today, the “pitbull in a skirt” is married to a successful entrepreneur. Here’s more about the “Love Is Blind” hitmaker and her husband, Maximillion Cooper, including who has the higher net worth.

Eve’s net worth

Eve and Cooper began dating in 2010 after meeting at a party he hosted in London. They got engaged on Christmas Day in 2013 and the following year, the Philadelphia-born rapper and the Gumball 3000 founder tied the knot in Ibiza, Spain. Cooper has four children from his previous marriage to Julie Brangstrup. In 2022, he and Eve welcomed their first child together — a son named Wilde Wolf. But before she was a wife, a mother, and dividing her time between London, Los Angeles, and New York, Eve was branching out into several different ventures beyond music.

She sang in choirs growing up and even formed an all-female singing group called Dope Girl Posse/EDGP. They covered songs by En Vogue and Color Me Badd. The group had a manager who suggested that Eve start rapping. The group ended up splitting, but Eve decided to push ahead with her solo career.

In 1998, she was signed to Dr. Dre’s record label, Aftermath Entertainment, before releasing her debut album in 1999 titled Let There Be Eve…Ruff Ryders’ First Lady with Ruff Ryders Entertainment and Interscope Records. The album spawned a number of hits including “What Ya Want” and “Gotta Man.” Eve recorded a total of four studio albums and won a Grammy for the single “Let Me Blow Ya Mind,” in which she collaborated with Gwen Stefani.

With a successful music career under her belt, Eve got into acting. She appeared in the films Barbershop and its sequels, and in TV shows like Third Watch, Glee, and Single Ladies, and starred in the series Queens. Eve had her own sitcom from 2003 to 2006 as well and co-hosted the programThe Talk. She launched a clothing line and had endorsement deals with several top companies too including Pepsi, Sprite, Tommy Hilfiger, and MAC Cosmetics.

These days, Eve has an estimated net worth of $25 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth.

Cooper’s net worth

Before marrying Eve, Cooper was modeling and pursuing a career in fashion design, having attended the prestigious Central St. Martins College of Art in London, with Alexander McQueen and Stella McCartney. Next, Cooper went to the University of Sussex, where he earned a degree in Law & Film. 

He was signed to a modeling agency in the ’90s and did ad campaigns for Giorgio Armani and Ralph Lauren. He then became a racecar driver for McLaren and Porsche teams throughout Europe. 

But he’s best known for establishing Gumball 3000, a celebrity motor rally he created in 1999. Gumball 3000 has become a leading lifestyle brand and entertainment group. The rallies usually have 120 drivers. Those drivers are often celebrities. Past participants have included Lewis Hamilton, Usher, and David Hasselhoff. Cooper has been voted into the “Top 50 Most Influential People in the Automotive Industry” by Complex magazine. He later formed the Gumball 3000 Foundation, which is a charity organization that helps underprivileged youth across the United Kingdom.

Today, Cooper has a net worth of $60 million per Celebrity Net Worth.
