Rudi Bakhtiar, one of the most fascinating news anchors of all time, has been a media contributor for the last two decades.
She has achieved great success despite having an exquisite appearance and fantastic presentation skills. What’s more surprising is that Rudi has worked in dangerous countries such as Iran, Iraq, Rwanda, Israel, and Palestine.
Bio and Net Worth of Rudi Bakhtiar
Rudi, who stands at 5 feet (1.52m), was born on June 21, 1966. She has a younger-looking face and a perfect physique despite being 52 years old.
Rudi has always prioritized education since her childhood. As a result, in 1992, she earned a bachelor’s degree in Applied Science from the University of California, Los Angeles.
Rudi’s main motivation for majoring in Science was her desire to become a dentist. She later changed her mind and transferred to Harvard School of Design to pursue a career in architecture through the Career Discovery Program.
Rudi began her career as a CNN broadcaster in June 1996. Rudi left the channel after nine years to become the Director of Communications for the International Campaign for Human Rights in Iran.
Rudi worked as the Senior Advisor Voice of America for nearly two years after working there for two years. Rudi’s career took off after she joined Reuters News Agency as a producer, where she earned a salary ranging from $89,000 to $97,000.
Rudi’s net worth, on the other hand, has yet to be revealed. She is currently employed as a producer for I Am Peshmerga.
Career and Net Worth
Rudi’s career was not always prosperous, as she experienced sexual harassment while working for Fox News. Brian Wilson, the former Fox bureau chief, harassed her in 2006. He made an appropriate approach to Rudi, telling her that they would meet inside a hotel room. She complained about the channel as a solution to the problem, but things did not go as planned. Rudi was fired from Fox instead of assisting her.
Relationship Status, Husband
Rudi has always kept a low profile when it comes to her love life. She was thought to be a single woman. Rudi was rumored to be a lesbian due to her lack of a husband.
However, her rumors were debunked when she claimed to be a married woman while speaking about her harassment in 2006. There is no news about Rudi’s marriage after the interview.
She was, however, linked to Steve Overmyer several times. Rudi’s alleged affair gained traction after Steve divorced his wife, Tracy. In the present, Rudi does not prefer discussing her personal life, so it is unclear whether she is married, divorced, or single.
