RHOSLC: What Does Bronwyn Newport’s Husband Todd Bradley Do for a Living?

2 days ago 6

In the first half of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Season 5, new Housewife Bronwyn Newport made a major, and mostly positive, impression on viewers. Initially, her husband Todd Bradley didn’t appear as much as some of the other RHOSLC star spouses. Even when he wasn’t on screen, Bronwyn talked about him quite a bit. Sometimes she made jokes about their age difference. Other times, she defended herself against gold digger accusations.

Midway through the season, Todd started to take center stage, especially when Bronwyn hosted a trip for the married couples in the RHOSLC cast. Todd’s wealth and career sparked lots of speculation about their marriage. Cast members like Britani Bateman and Heather Gay were especially bothered they didn’t have a prenup. Now that Todd’s appearing on screen more, viewers are curious to learn more about his career. Here’s everything we know about what Bronwyn’s husband Todd does for a living.

Everything we know about Bronwyn Newport’s husband Todd Bradley’s education and early career

Bronwyn mentioned Todd’s early days in the workforce when they visited the Miller Brewing Company on the Milwaukee cast trip. In one of her many jokes about their 26-year age difference, Bronwyn made sure to mention that this was all before she was born.

Todd graduated from Maryland’s Towson University in 1980, with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration. By the time Bronwyn was born, Todd had worked as a Vice President at FedEx, a position he held from 1984-1993. After that, he worked in Brussels for three years as President and General Manager of AC Nielsen, overseeing medical data centers.

Todd held major positions at Gateway, Palm Pilot, Hewlett-Packard, and other technology companies

Throughout his career, Todd worked various jobs in Silicon Valley, serving as an executive in marketing and digital technology. Based on his LinkedIn page, where Todd refers to himself as an “Experienced Global Technology Executive”, we can understand why people might be confused about what exactly he does. Silicon Valley is where people make lots and lots of money doing jobs that seem like a word salad of things none of us know about. But we can tell that Todd’s resume is very impressive.

While introducing her husband to viewers, Bronwyn mentioned his past job as the CEO of Palm Pilot, a position he held from 2001-2005. She also made an “ask your grandparents” joke. While Gen Z may not know about Palm Pilots, they were a very popular personal digital assistant in the early aughts. So much so, in fact, the plot of the 2005 Brittany Murphy rom-com Little Black Book revolved around a character’s Palm Pilot! Alas, the popularity of this gadget fell by the wayside once smartphones came on the scene.

After moving on from Palm Pilot, Todd worked as an Executive Vice President at Hewlett-Packard from 2005 to 2014. While at HP, Todd specialized in innovation and marketing in the personal computing space. In her anniversary tribute, Bronwyn praised her husband as “an inspiration and pioneer” in his industry.

In 2014, he met Bronwyn, and they married two years later. At the time, she was also working in finance. They met while having lunch and she found him “hysterically funny.” Bronwyn joked that she thought he wanted to mentor her because he gave her his email. But that was his way of making a romantic connection.

What is Todd’s current job and net worth?

Since 2020, Todd has worked part-time as a board member of Commvault, a data protection and management software company. He is also on the board of Mattel and TruCar, and works in private equity. Todd frequently has to travel for his job. Which allows Bronwyn to show off her many, many costumes. In an interview with BravoTV, Bronwyn said they made Salt Lake City their home base so Todd could have a better tax basis. Before that, they had a ski home in Park City.

According to Benzinga, Todd’s current net worth is estimated to be $24.6 million. I guess that explains how he can afford such a pricey necklace as Bronwyn’s anniversary gift. To quote Bronwyn defending their marriage, “Todd is such a savvy businessman, do you think my snarky lame ass hoodwinked him? Todd is so successful that he has all these assets to protect and he didn’t see that I was coming as a gold digger?”

Todd is currently a partner at Niobrara Capital, a technology-based private equity firm, alongside Mike Pompeo. Yes, as in Donald Trump’s former Secretary of State. Meanwhile, Bronwyn is very outspoken about her political beliefs and does not support Trump. She highlights liberal charities and proudly supports drag queens and teachers, two groups of people constantly attacked by Trump, his administration, and his supporters. Todd accompanied her to Kamala Harris’ closing speech, but we don’t know his politics for sure. Then again, people work closely with those who share completely different political beliefs all the time.
