Hollywood actress Sally Kirkland has sparked concerns among fans after the news of her severe health crisis came out. Friends of the 83-year-old actress have started a GoFundMe campaign to help her with her treatment expenses. Kirkland has been acting since the 1960s and has starred in over 250 movies and television shows. Though she earned a decent amount of money during her long and illustrious career, her need for funding for her hospitalization has left fans wondering about her net worth.
Sally Kirkland’s Net Worth
According to the website Celebrity Net Worth, Sally Kirkland’s last recorded net worth was $5.5 million. However, her wealth has significantly dwindled in recent years. According to her GoFundMe post, the actress’ net worth took a massive hit during the 2007–2008 market crash. Additionally, in 2021, SAG-AFTRA canceled medical insurance for actors over the age of 65, which led to Kirkland paying for hospital expenses with her own money.
The post also highlighted that the actress has suffered several health scares, including fractures and infections, in the last year, leading to her hospitalization for over 100 days, which will not be covered by insurance. Hence, the actress’ friends are trying to crowdfund her treatment, with a target amount of $65k.
