Early Life

Susan Boyle was born on April 01, 1961, in West Lothian, Scotland. She was named Susan Magdalene Boyle at birth and was born to Patrick and Bridget. There’s not a lot of elaborate information about her parents but reports suggest that her father was a miner while her mother was a shorthand typist.

Boyle’s passion for music comes from her father, who was an amateur singer and would perform now and then. She grew up alongside her eight other siblings, so it’s safe to say that her home life was pretty chaotic.

Although there isn’t any information about Boyle’s formal education and where she acquired it, a few reports claim that she was bullied by her peers due to her appearance. She was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome and didn’t have the smoothest schooling experience.

Personal Life

Susan Boyle is extremely private about her personal life. There were rumors that she met a doctor and the two have been dating privately but nothing was confirmed. She isn’t married or doesn’t have any children, as far as public knowledge goes. Susan prefers keeping her personal affairs away from the media.

Career

With a budding passion for creating music, Susan brought out her savings and recorded a demo by herself to send to the recording companies.

She recorded a series of songs, including Cry Me a River, Don’t Cry for me Argentina, Killing Me Softly, etc. in the demo. However, she later went and auditioned for Britain’s Got Talent, which ended up being her biggest career shift.

One of the reasons Susan Boyle didn’t want to audition for The X-Factor was because she thought the contestants were being selected based on their appearance alone. While she was pretty close to dropping her audition for Britain’s Got Talent, she later changed her mind after her music coach convinced her.

Boyle’s audition came after a big tragedy in her life. It was after she lost her mother and dedicated her audition to her late mother. She qualified until the televised series on the show. When her audition aired on television and YouTube, it was watched by 10+ million people.

Following the completion of Britain’s Got Talent, Susan soon released her debut album, “I Dreamed a Dream.” The album secured #1 in both the U.K and the U.S. Her second album, “The Gift” also ended up being a commercial success. Over the years, she has acquired multiple awards and accolades and is a Grammy nominee as well.

Net Worth

Susan Boyle has an estimated net worth of $40 million, the majority of which comes from her music career. She has sold several hundred thousand records, bringing her millions of dollars. She has also performed her albums, further raking in a good amount of money from her performances as well. There are reports that she indulges in brand endorsements too.
