Earnings From Music Industry
Barbara believes she doesn't need to step away from modeling to pursue her career in music. As a result, at the time she was studying music in New York, Fialho was also making a name in the fashion world.

Be it singing or featuring in music videos, Fialho must have earned quite a good fortune. Her songs have been quite successful in her home country, Brazil which has helped increase Barbara Fialho's net worth.
Moreover, she is now married to Rohan Marley, son of Bob Marley, and combined with her own, the couple might have relatively high earnings.
