An English musician and composer named Mike Oldfield has a net worth of $45 million.
In 1953, Mike Oldfield was born in Reading, Berkshire, England.
The Sallyangie, a folk band formed in 1967 by him and his sister, began playing in local venues.
They put out an album together and then split up afterward.
While collaborating with The Whole World on “Tubular Bells”, Oldfield released it in 1973, making it one of his most well-known albums.
He has released over two dozen studio albums, including 1982’s “Five Miles Out”, 1989’s “Earth Moving”, 1992’s “Tubular Bells II”, 1998’s “Tubular Bells III”, 1999’s “The Millennium Bell”, 2008’s “Music of the Spheres” and 2014’s “Man on the Rocks”.
After moving to Warner Bros. in the early ’90s, Oldfield released “Tubular Bells II” to try and sway his former record company, Virgin.
Oldfield’s expertise extends to a range of instruments, with the guitar being the most prominent.
He has experience playing various musical instruments such as banjo, ukulele, piano, organ, spinet, bouzouki, sitar, recorder, accordion, tambourine, glockenspiel, jaw harp, triangle, and sleigh bells.
Throughout all of his musical releases, he can be heard playing more than 40 instruments.
Diana D’Aubigny was the first woman Oldfield married in the late ’70s, and she has since been married twice.
During the 2000s, he and Fanny Vandekerckhove got married, but they ended their relationship in 2013.
Several women have given birth to seven children under Oldfield’s care.
