I was a child star & multi-millionaire before turning 10 – it’s not all it’s cracked up to be, my friends are so jealous
A YOUNG woman who is already a multi-millionaire before reaching 18 has revealed it’s not all it’s cracked up to be.
Isabella Barrett started earning her fortune as a child star on the hit TV show Toddlers and Tiaras where she performed across beauty pageants in the US.
Since then Isabella, 17, has gone on to own jewellery line called Glitzy Girl and became one of the youngest self-made millionaires in America.
And that’s not all – before hitting the milestone birthday the young beauty queen also earns millions of dollars through modelling jobs and brand endorsements, not forgetting her own successful clothing and lifestyle brand, House of Barretti.
Now the child star, who made her first million before turning six years old has spoken out about the trials and tribulations of being a in the top 1% of earners.
It’s a life most of us dream of – but Isabella says it hasn’t come without hard work and difficulty forming true relationships.
She has spoken out after a suspected romance with YouTube sensation Gavin Magnus, also 17 years old.
Keeping things private when you’re constantly in the spotlight is tricky

She exclusively told Fabulous: “I met Gavin two-and-a-half years ago at New York Fashion Week,” the House of Barretti founder said.
“We instantly clicked, bonding over our shared passions for cars, fashion, and the early taste of fame.”
“Keeping things private when you’re constantly in the spotlight is tricky,” she admitted.
“But being with Gavin means having someone who truly understands the pressures, the challenges, and everything else that comes with living life under intense public scrutiny.
“We’re still figuring out exactly what we are to each other, but our friendship is incredibly strong.”
The multi-millionaire revealed her wealth made it difficult to find true friendships.
She said it was a struggle to find people who truly support your achievements without any jealousy.
But thankfully, her new relationship seems to be going well – and says the fact both of them are in the public eye helps.
“Gavin frequently attends my runway shows and has even performed twice at my New York Fashion Week show,” she said.
“Then, when he went on tour recently, I was right there to support him and share in his journey.
“It’s about giving each other strength where it counts,” she noted.
