Jane Kaczmarek | 41, 44, & 46

Despite playing the ever controlling mother in the hit TV show Malcolm in the Middle, Jane Kaczmarek showed her softer side with her own growing family. The actress has three children, who were all born in her 40s. The Emmy-nominated actress is wed to The West Wing star, Bradley Whitford, and it took them five years before they started a family, which meant that she was already in her forties.

Kaczmarek was quite open about the difficulties in her career when she was pregnant during the decade as she had to hide her growing bump from the camera. However, it seems that her will to perform and become a mother at the same time helped her make smart investment planning for the future of her children. She has a decent net worth today and her husband has been adding to the pile as well.
