Cote de Pablo Net Worth $4 Million
At the age of 10, Cote de Pablo moved to live in US as her mother was offered a job in Miami. She was educated at Arvida Middle School, and New World School of the Arts, where ‘Cote’ became her nickname, actually a common one in Chile. Meantime she opened her net worth account being 15 years old as a co-host of the Latin-American talk show ‘Control’. In 2000, she graduated from Carnegie Mellon University with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in musical theatre.
As with many actors, she began her full-time professional career on television, taking parts in commercials. In 2000, Cote appeared in the episode of the television drama series ‘The $treet’ created by Jeff Rake and Darren Star, then a year later, de Pablo increased her net worth with the role of Gina in an episode of the drama series ‘The Education of Max Bickford’ written by David Black and Linda Burstyn.
Branching out, in 2001 Cote De Pablo voiced Melanie Sanchez in the video game ‘TOCA Race Driver’, but Cote really added to her net worth after she appeared in the main cast of the legal drama series created by James Yoshimura, Tom Fontana and Barry Levinson named ‘The Jury’, although because of low ratings only ten episodes of the series were shown.
Then Cote De Pablo became prominent for her major role in the drama series ‘NCIS’ created by Donald P. Bellisario and Don McGill, which brought Cote a number of nominations including for an Imagen Award for Best Actress, an ALMA Award and others. The actress won an Imagen Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2006 and an ALMA Award for the Favourite Television Actress in the Leading Role in a Drama in 2011. These honours have undoubtedly helped increase Cote De Pablo’s net worth and popularity.
In 2010, she appeared on the big screen in the action-western film “The Last Rites of Ransom Pride” directed by Tiller Russell. More recently, Cote is one of the cast members of the drama film “The 33” directed by Patricia Riggen, and released in 2014.
In addition to being a noted actress, Pablo is a singer too. Her first recorded song ‘Temptation’ was used in an episode of television series ‘NCIS’ and is listed in the music album “NCIS: The Official TV Soundtrack”. Cote also sings several songs in the album “Vivo en vida” of Roberto Pitre. It is expected that the net worth of the actress will be rising in the future.
In her personal life, the media reported that Cote De Pablo was in a long-term relationship with actor Diego Serrano, but they apparently separated in 2015.
