Just when we thought Netflix's reality TV offerings couldn’t get any better, along came Selling Sunset in 2019 - the show which follows a group of super glam, super rich realtors as they sell properties around LA. The agents work for The Oppenheim Group and their main interest is flogging the insanely priced properties to their insanely rich clients. (Absolutely no modesty here, thank you very much.)

While the series might seem like an audacious bragging of wealth to some, for most of us its appeal hasn't worn off with the eighth season set to land on Netflix imminently.

And in anticipation of the upcoming season, we're taking a trip down memory land and doing a deep dive into the life of Maya Vander.

Who is Maya Vander?

Maya Vander was - she left the show in June 2022 - one of the ultra-glamorous sellers on Selling Sunset. She grew up in Israel and moved to LA in 2002, but now resides in Miami. She no longer works at The Oppenheim Group and has instead established her own brokerage: The Maya Vander Group, in partnership with Compass.

Is Maya Vander married?

Yes, since June 2017 to a man called David Miller.

Speaking about how they met in a tribute post to her husband of eight years on Instagram Maya revealed, 'I was single in Los Angeles, for like 5 years (post bad breakup) met David in a bar in Santa Monica... well we actually met randomly before in different places but nothing never happened. It goes to show that sometimes in life, it’s about timing. It’s about finding the right partner without giving up your dreams and goals.'

Does Maya Vander have kids?

Together, David and Maya have three children: Aidan, five, Ellie, four, and Emma, one.

The happy news of baby number three - born in May 2023 - came after she suffered a miscarriage in June 2022, and a late-term pregnancy loss in December 2021.

Opening up about the difficult time that her family had faced Maya bravely shared on Instagram, 'Yesterday was the hardest day of my life. I had a stillbirth at 38 weeks. I always heard of it but never imagined I'll be part of the statistics. Instead of delivering a baby, I get to go home with a memory box… I do not wish this on anyone. What was a regular weekly checkup turned into a nightmare that I never imagine will happen to me.

'Given I share my pregnancies in the show I knew I'll have to post about this and avoid the "when is your due date 'question." You will always be in our heart baby Mason.'

How old is Maya Vander?

Born on 12 March 1982, Maya is 41 years old.

What is Maya Vander's net worth?

Cheeky to be asking, but seeing how you asked nicely we’ll tell you - Selling Sunset is all about money! Maya is thought to be worth a cool $1million (£800,000).

Is Maya Vander on social media?
