Russell Wilson and Ciara make up one of the most powerful couples across sports and entertainment.
The NFL quarterback and R&B star are worth many millions of dollars combined.

Russell Wilson and Ciara are two halves of one of America's most impressive power couples.

The Denver Broncos quarterback and "1, 2 Step" singer first met in 2015 and married the following year. Now, they share two kids — with a third on the way — and a life of luxury.

The Wilsons also share a significant fortune between them. The Super Bowl champion is among the highest-paid NFL players of all-time, and the R&B artist has sold tens of millions of records and singles.

Here's how the husband and wife make and spend their millions.
