Zachery Ty Bryan, who starred as Brad Taylor on the 1990s sitcom Home Improvement, is estimated to be worth $5 million.
Career Highlights
Bryan’s acting career started with commercials and small TV appearances before he secured his role on “Home Improvement.” He portrayed the eldest son of Tim Allen’s character for all eight seasons of the show, from 1991 to 1999, and that sitcom helped to ensure him a financial windfall.
After “Home Improvement,” Bryan had roles in several television shows and movies, including “ER,” “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” “Smallville,” and “The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.” But he has not appeared on screen since 2009.
Legal Troubles and Recent Developments
In recent years, Bryan has faced legal issues that have kept him in the public eye. In October 2020, authorities arrested him in Oregon, connecting him to charges of felony strangulation and fourth-degree assault during an incident involving his girlfriend. He later pleaded guilty to two charges and received a sentence of probation and a batterer’s intervention program.
In 2024, authorities arrested him multiple times in California and Oklahoma for driving under the influence of alcohol. In January 2025, authorities arrested Bryan again in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, as he faced second-degree domestic violence charges. It was his third arrest in the last year.
Financial Impact
Bryan achieved success and wealth early in his music career, but recent court cases might impact his finances. Legal fees, possible settlements, and a shortage of recent acting gigs could, over time, impact his net worth.
His net worth reflects his success as a child actor on “Home Improvement.” But his recent legal troubles underscore challenges that could affect his finances going forward.
