This breaks down to around £4,438 per week, a £40,000 increase compared to her earnings in 2023.
McDermott, who fronted the BBC documentary Ibiza: Secrets of the Party Island, also made headlines in 2024 after ending her five-year relationship with TV personality Sam Thompson, 34.

According to The Sun, documents filed at Companies House reveal that McDermott’s firm, Zara Nicole McDermott Limited, holds £523,030 in cash reserves, £161,431 in investments, and £6,298 in tangible assets.
The same report adds that Zara took out a £122,798 loan from the company, which she founded in 2018, with £14,929 still outstanding.
The Dailymail reported Zara's main aim for the documentary is to discover why thousands of young Brits flock to the exotic location every year.
From backpackers to those seeking longer-term roots, the new documentary will uncover the secrets of the vast and varied country.
Speaking to the BBC, Zara revealed that she is excited to explore a new country
“I'm excited to discover a country that so many young people like me are heading to right now.
“There’s clearly a fascination with the nightlife, parties, and stunning beaches, but there seem to be other intriguing reasons why people are going to Thailand and staying.”
“Zara has brought a range of thought-provoking and critically acclaimed documentaries to the BBC over the last few years.
The star has spoken about several important topics including revenge porn, sexism, and 'rape culture' in UK schools as well as the rise of young people experiencing eating disorders.
