Accounts from the companies revealed that Ant and Dec raked in £23,000 a day. The duo pocketed £8.4million between them from hosting "Saturday Night Takeaway," "Britain’s Got Talent" and "I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here!"
The accounts do not indicate how much the pair are paid individually, however they each put around £5million into investments last year.
One TV source said: “It’s little surprise they are raking it in given they are fronting three of the biggest and most popular shows on TV, with huge ratings to boot."
“For the big cheeses at the top of ITV, they are worth every penny.”
The 39-year-olds are locked in a 'golden handcuffs deal' with ITV. They have extended their relationship with the channel to 18 years after signing the contract in 2013.
"Ant and Dec are incredibly popular and this is reflected in their earnings," a source told The Sun. "They earn as much as a lot of top footballers, but their careers should last longer."
They reportedly made £15 million by selling the rights to Saturday Night Takeaway to American network NBC.
It is a far cry from the pair’s humble beginnings on council estates in Newcastle.
They met playing PJ and Duncan on BBC, in a Newcastle-based teen drama Byker Grove in 1989. Now they manage their earnings through private firms Teecourt, Deecourt and Hurley Promotions.
Hurley, is jointly owned by the pair, was incorporated in 2013 profitted £1.97million during its first trading period. Teecourt, which is owned by Ant, made £3.2million last year, while Dec’s company Deecourt posted identical profits.
Anthony 'Ant' McPartlin and Declan 'Dec' Donnelly picked up two gongs at this year's BAFTA Awards for Entertainment Programme and Entertainment Performers.
Ant, who is married to Lisa Armstrong, spends his spare time golfing at exclusive clubs.
Dec, engaged to Ali Astall, previously splashed out £50,000 on an engagement ring. He is worth around £60 million.
