What is Ellie Zeiler’s net worth?
Ellie Zeiler is a teen sensation on TikTok who has a net worth of $1.5 million.
She looks a lot like TikTok queen Charli D’Amelio, who was the first-ever TikTok kid to reach 100 million followers.
Ellie isn’t a fan of the comparisons, often clapping back at people who comment on the resemblance between the two.
But whatever she feels about making it on social media as a Charli lookalike, you can’t deny her success—she’s so far amassed more than 10.7 million followers on the massive social media platform.
She’s also got another 1.7 million Instagram followers.
She’s a dancer, a foodie, a fitness enthusiast, and even a non-profit founder.
Here’s what we found out about the content creator teen who hasn’t even graduated high school yet.
The Origin Story
Ellie Zeiler was born on March 6, 2004, in San Diego, California.
Her parents, Rick and Sarah Zeiler, also have twin boys named Ben and Will.
The family also has a fifth member, pup Teddy.
Zeiler comes from a tight-knit family and is very close to her parents and younger brothers.
It’s probably for the best, since she’s had to move high schools four times.
During a GRWM video posted to her YouTube channel—where she also talks about the Charli D’Amelio comparisons and “boy problems”—Ellie says that switching schools so much doesn’t faze her.
In fact, her parents raised her to be an optimist, and to make the most of every opportunity that comes her way.
She credits all the moves with helping expose her to different experiences and environments—something that would inspire her charitable foundation later in life.
Zeiler enjoys sports and the outdoors, and has played basketball for six years.
She also loves golf.
The diminutive teen may almost be a household name amongst the Gen Z set, but being a social media celebrity isn’t her goal in life.
What she really wants is to study at NYU in the Big Apple, and start investing in real estate.
Ellie Zeiler may be kind of a celebrity in her own right, but that doesn’t stop her from getting giddy over her crush.
She hasn’t got a boyfriend—and says she’s definitely not focused on dating right now—but her celeb crush is actor Timothee Chalamet.
Ellie’s parents might be 100% behind her now, but it was a process.
They initially only allowed her to scroll TikTok for one minute a day.
Together As One
In 2020, Ellie and a friend founded Together As One—also known on social media as the Together As One Movement.
The move came after the pair were impacted by a shooting at their synagogue, and its goal is to start a conversation around accepting diversity, equality of race, and eliminating prejudice and discrimination.
High School Drama
Teens on social media, it seems, have the same kind of issues every other teenager faces.
Zeiler has experienced crushes, peer pressure, and even bullying, at the hands of other teens on TikTok and Instagram.
Case in point, she once called fellow TikToker Cynthia Parker’s ex-boyfriend—influencer Quinton Griggs—“cute.”
Seems harmless, but apparently, that’s all it takes to kick off some drama amongst the high school set.
IG Live drama ensued, and was revived again a few months later when Parker accused her ex of cheating on her with Zeiler.
In September 2020 the beef was reignited when Zeiler wished Cynthia a happy 30th birthday—Cynthia was turning 16 at the time.
In response, Parker called Ellie “Charli,” taking a jab at Zeiler’s biggest insecurity as a social media star.

That Comparison
Despite how Ellie feels about being compared to the uber-famous D’Amelio sisters, she’s learned to take the comparisons in her stride and use them to fuel her creativity.
Ever graceful, Charli D’Amelio doesn’t feel any kind of way about it, and instead empathizes with what the Zeiler family are probably experiencing now that their teen daughter is in the public eye.
Charli said in the sisters’ podcast, “She blew up and she’s getting hate for how she did it. We get hate for how we did it. We’re all in the same position.”
In May 2024, Zeiler has signed with CAA.
Height
Ellie Zeiler is about 5 ft 3 in (160 cm) tall.

Net Worth 2024
So, how much is Ellie Zeiler worth? Zeiler earned most of his wealth from posting on TikTok and sponsors (such as Amazon, Levi’s, and Lancôme). Therefore, TikTok celebrity Ellie Zeiler has an estimated net worth of $1.5 million.
Ellie also got a lot of plans up her sleeve—and they’re pretty big ones.
She started taking acting classes in 2021, and is hoping to gain some more experience behind the camera, too.
One of her bucket list goals—and it’s at the top of the list—is to score a role in a Netflix show.
If she manages to check this goal off the list, it won’t be the first time she’s been on mainstream TV.
In 2016 she was cast on Chopped Junior, a cooking show for kids. The show was filmed in New York City, and that was where her love of the Big Apple was born.
She’s also got a passion for fashion—something you wouldn’t expect based on the launch of her two pieces of merchandise in 2021: two crewneck sweaters.
The youngster claims that she trawls Instagram, Vogue, and Pinterest for style inspiration, and would love to do more in the fashion space.
