His current net worth sits around $9 million, built largely from earning up to $200,000 per episode on The Flash. He has been happily married to physical therapist Andrea “LA” Thoma since 2018 and they now have two young children. Before marriage he dated dancer Hannah Douglass. Here’s the complete updated story.
Early Life & Rise from Virginia Theater Kid to Broadway
Thomas Grant Gustin was born on January 14, 1990, in Norfolk, Virginia. The middle child of a college professor dad and a pediatric nurse mom, Grant grew up singing and dancing around the house. At just eight years old he fell in love with Singin’ in the Rain and started tap lessons the next week. By high school he was already deep in the Governor’s School for the Arts program and performing with Hurrah Players.
He left Elon University’s prestigious musical-theater program after two years when he landed the national tour of West Side Story revival at age 20 — a risky but life-changing move that took him straight to Broadway stages before most of his classmates had even graduated.
Grant Gustin Height, Weight & Staying in Superhero Shape
Standing 6 feet tall and weighing roughly 165 pounds, Grant has the ideal lean, athletic build for Barry Allen. During the nine seasons of The Flash he followed a mix of HIIT circuits, yoga, and functional training to handle wire work and sprint scenes without injury.
He once joked in an interview, “Being The Flash means you can’t live on pizza — at least not every day.” Fans still love his relatable fitness posts on Instagram (@grantgust).
Net Worth & Salary Evolution (2025 Updated)
Grant Gustin’s net worth is estimated at $9 million in 2025. His salary jumped from about $20,000 per episode on Glee to $100,000 mid-run on The Flash, and reportedly hit $200,000 per episode for the final seasons. That alone brought in roughly $20 million before taxes and agents.
Add residuals, voice work for DC animation, brand deals, and smart real-estate moves in Los Angeles, and the number keeps climbing even after the show ended.
