“Heartstopper” has managed to have three seasons on Netflix so far, all thanks to the incredible talent of its main stars in bringing Alice Oseman‘s graphic novel to life. The new episodes are scheduled to arrive on October 3, 2024.

Kit Connor (Rocketman) plays Nick Nelson, while Joe Locke portrays Charlie Spring. Both have been present for 24 episodes and have risen to international fame through these roles in the popular romantic series.

Recently, several cast members (especially the younger actors) have been asking for a pay raise, as the drama has achieved massive worldwide success, and many salaries have remained relatively low.

Who is richer: Joe Locke or Kit Connor?

Kit Connor, who plays Nick Nelson in Heartstopper, has had a longer career in the entertainment industry compared to Joe Locke. As a result, he is currently the wealthier of the two, with a net worth of $5 million.

Joe’s career took off with the success of the TV drama, which debuted in 2022. By October 2024, his fortune is estimated to be $2 million, reflecting his growing career and recent success, though this figure has not been confirmed.

Despite the three-million-dollar difference, both actors are expected to continue increasing their fortunes as their careers flourish, especially with the ongoing success of the Netflix series and their new projects.

In Locke’s case, he recently completed the first season of “Agatha All Along”, a project for which he earned a good salary. Meanwhile, Connor is currently performing in the play “Romeo + Juliet” alongside Rachel Zegler.
