Best known for her role as Edie Britt on Desperate Housewives, British television actress Nicolette Sheridan has an estimated net worth of $25 million.

Last April, Sheridan filed a bombshell $20 million lawsuit- alleging that she was hit in the face by Cherry and was wrongfully terminated from the series because, among other reasons, she is a woman. Sheridan later dropped her causes of action for intentional infliction of emotional distress and discrimination based on sexual orientation and age. But the rest of the case is now heating up, with a key summary judgment hearing set for May 3.

Sheridan was making $175,000 per episode in Season 5 of the show, when she was told in February 2009 that her character Edie Britt was being killed off. But ABC and Cherry argue in their motion that the decision to kill Sheridan’s character was actually made nine months earlier, in May 2008, when “after discussing the death of Edie with the other staff writers and producers,” Cherry got the green light from both producer Touchstone Television and ABC to dump the character.
