They are largely considered to be the most hated couple in reality television history. But for Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, the rumor mill didn't matter so much as the paychecks continued to roll in. The couple, who is most known for their time appearing on the hit MTV show "The Hills", remember their glory days of getting six-figure paychecks for episode appearances fondly. Those days are long over, however, as greed got the best of their fortune, once valued at $10 million dollars.
"I felt like I was someone I wasn't. We had business managers who told us to stop spending but we acted like we knew what we were doing," Montag told People. Her luxury wardrobe, a team of bodyguards, thousands of dollars in wine, and a million-dollar crystal collection are just some of the items Montag and Pratt were accustomed to spending money on during the peak of their reality TV careers.
Their hunger for fame and their expensive taste ultimately got the best of them, as the couple had to move into Pratt's family home to live rent-free after squandering their million-dollar accounts. Having tasted the bitter consequences of their greedy endeavors, the couple has admitted to resorting to desperate measures to make money. In 2010, they revealed that they staged a media ploy faking their breakup and divorce in order to make money.
