Robert Sean Leonard’s Wife Is 50 Years Old and Was Raised in Hidden Valley, Southern California
Most reports you would find about Gabriella Salick would state that much isn’t known about her early life and family background. But Showbizers has uncovered a lot about the family she hails from, upbringing, and what not. For starters, we can confirm that she is 50 years old at the moment.
Salick was born sometime in March 1974. She is five years younger than her husband who was born in Westwood, New Jersey on the 28th of February 1969. He is currently 55 years old. Her parents are Gloria and Bernard Salick. The latter is a doctor and scientist, the founder of Salick Health Centers. He would later devote his time to sport horse genetics.
Salick’s parents are now elderly but are still involved in running the activities of Sandstone Horse Sales LLC which they established in 1987, and Sandstone Ranch, a horse breeding and training center that the Salick family owns in Thousand Oaks, California. Gabriella isn’t the only child of her parents but the oldest of their three daughters. She has two younger sisters named Elizabeth Salick and Anna-Martine Salick. The siblings spent most of their childhood in Hidden Valley, Southern California.
Gabriella Salick Began Riding Horses as a Kid and Became a Professional Show Jumper in 1996
If you ask Robert Sean Leonard’s wife, she started riding horses when she was either 9 or 10 years old. Growing up in Southern California, her parents acquired a farm around the Hidden Valley area. If we are not mistaken, this was sometime in 1983. Showbizers gathered that the farm had an aged Quarter Horse. Salick nurtured a bond with the horse and it marked the beginning of her attachment to the creatures.
While she started riding as a kid, she didn’t take show jumping seriously until she became a teenager. In 1990 and 1991, she respectively won gold at the North American Young Riders Championship and the United States Olympic Festival. A few years later (in 1995), she represented the United States Equestrian Team in a Nations Cup that was held in Ireland. The next year saw her become a professional show jumper and in 1999, she helped the U.S. team bag two Nations Cup wins.
Pursuing a career as an equestrian didn’t make Gabriella Salick forsake her education. She was serious about her studies and proceeded to Princeton University in New Jersey to further her education after high school. At the private Ivy League research university, she bagged a bachelor’s degree in the classics. She studied Indo-European linguistics and it was said that she was working towards acquiring master’s and doctoral degrees as well.
Thanks to her education, the American equestrian who also holds a black belt in tae kwon do is fluent in Sanskrit, ancient Greek, archaic Greek, and Latin.
She Has a Net Worth Estimated at $2 Million and Her Husband Is Believed to be Worth $10 Million
Robert Sean Leonard’s wife Gabriella Salick is estimated to be worth at least $2 million at the moment. Needless to say, most of her wealth comes from her career as an equestrian. She has participated in various events in the sport, including the 2014 Summer Festival Grand Prix where she won $30,000.
Apart from winnings from her outings, she has various business interests built around the sport; including Gabriella Salick, LLC. The assets associated with these businesses are worth over $1 million. Given all of these, it is not hard to believe that the equestrian is worth $2 million. Be that as it may, it is important to state that this is only a guesstimate of her wealth.
If Salick is truly worth $2 million, then one could say that her husband Robert Sean Leonard is four times richer than her. But this would only be true if the actor is indeed worth the $10 million believed to be the overall value of his wealth. One thing is certain though: Leonard made most of his money from his acting career.
