What Is Georgina Bloomberg's Net Worth?

Georgina Bloomberg is an American entrepreneur and professional equestrian who has a net worth of $100 million.

Georgina Bloomberg is the daughter of Michael Bloomberg, the former mayor of New York City and the founder of Bloomberg LP, as well as one of the richest people in the world.

Georgina started riding horses at age four and began competing at six. At 18, she won the United States Equestrian Team Talent Derby, and two years later, in 2003, she won the individual gold medal. Bloomberg was the owner of Team Miami Glory of the Global Champions League and then became team owner and a rider for the New York Empire. Georgina also co-authored the young adult novels "The A Circuit" (2011), "My Favorite Mistake" (2012), "Off Course" (2012), and "Rein It In" (2013), which are about the equestrian show circuit.

Early Life

Georgina Bloomberg was born Georgina Leigh Bloomberg on January 20, 1983, in New York City. She is the daughter of Susan Brown and billionaire Michael Bloomberg, and she has an older sister named Emma. Georgina attended The Spence School, then she enrolled at the Gallatin School of Individualized Study at New York University, graduating in 2010 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Individualized Studies with a concentration in Studio Arts and Sports Business, and Marketing. In 2012, she studied fashion design at the Parsons School of Design at The New School. Bloomberg was born with a spinal condition called spondylolisthesis. She broke her back in 2002 while she was training for the Hampton Classic, and she had to wear a back brace for six months. Georgina later fractured her back and suffered a mild concussion after she fell off a horse, and in 2011, she underwent spinal surgery.

Early Riding Career

Georgina Bloomberg began riding horses in 1987 at the age of four. By the time she was six, she was already competing, quickly establishing herself as one of the most promising young riders on the East Coast. As a child and junior competitor, she dominated her age group, earning the title of Best Child Rider at every major East Coast horse show, an unusually consistent achievement that marked her as a serious long-term prospect in the sport.

Her early success was driven by a combination of disciplined training, natural athleticism, and early exposure to elite competition. Unlike many junior riders who transition slowly into higher levels, Bloomberg moved aggressively through the ranks, laying the groundwork for a professional show jumping career.

Transition to Jumpers and National Recognition

In 2000, Bloomberg began competing in jumper divisions, a pivotal step that placed her directly on the professional track. Just one year later, at age 18, she won the United States Equestrian Team's Talent Derby, a prestigious competition designed to identify and develop future international riders.

Her momentum continued in 2003, when she captured the individual gold medal at a major national competition, further solidifying her reputation. In 2004, she officially turned professional and was honored with the Maxine Beard Award, which recognizes outstanding young American show jumping talent.

Grand Prix Success and Major Wins

Over the next decade, Bloomberg compiled an extensive list of Grand Prix victories and high-profile wins across the United States. Her notable victories include the Metropolitan Cup and Las Vegas Invitational Knockout in 2005, the WEF Challenge Cup in 2007, the Bluegrass Festival Grand Prix and Empire State Grand Prix in 2010, and the Central Park Grand Prix CSI 3 in 2014.

She continued winning into the mid-2010s, capturing the Adequan Grand Prix CSI 3 in 2015 and the Royalton Farms Open Jumper 1.40 m class in 2016. These victories established her as a consistent contender at the sport's highest domestic levels rather than a rider defined by brief peaks.

International Competition and Team Events

Bloomberg also competed extensively on the international stage. In 2005, she qualified for the World Cup Finals and was a member of the Samsung Super League team that won the Nations' Cup, placing her among an elite group of riders representing the United States in top global competition.

Her most significant team achievement came in 2015, when she was a member of the U.S. Equestrian Team that won a bronze medal at the Pan American Games. While she never competed in the Olympics, the Pan American Games medal remains a major career milestone and one of the highest international honors in equestrian sport.

Global Champions League and Team Ownership

In addition to competing, Bloomberg expanded into team ownership, reflecting her growing influence within the sport. In 2016, she won the Hermes Sellier Classic at the American Gold Cup and competed in the Global Champions League both as a rider and as the owner of Team Miami Glory.

Two years later, in 2018, she became a team owner for the New York Empire, further cementing her role as both an athlete and a business figure within professional show jumping. Her ownership roles placed her alongside major international investors and riders in one of the sport's most commercially ambitious leagues.

Horses and Training Operations

Throughout her career, Bloomberg has owned and competed with numerous top-level show jumping horses, including Paola 233, Calista, Manodie, and South Street. She has been closely involved in the training, development, and management of her horses, emphasizing long-term performance and soundness rather than short competitive cycles.

Her approach reflects a professional operation more akin to a stable manager and investor than a rider focused solely on competition.

Writing and Media Work

In 2011, Bloomberg expanded her career into publishing with the release of her first young adult novel, "The A Circuit," co-written with Catherine Hapka. The book drew heavily from her experiences in the competitive equestrian world and was followed by three sequels: "My Favorite Mistake" and "Off Course" in 2012, and "Rein It In" in 2013.

The series introduced competitive riding to a younger audience and marked Bloomberg's transition into media and storytelling alongside her athletic career.

Personal Life

On December 24, 2013, Georgina welcomed a son, Jasper, with her then-boyfriend, Olympic show jumping rider Ramiro Quintana. After Bloomberg and Quintana split up, she told Cricket's Circle, "Jasper's father will always be in his life and be a friend figure to him, but he is not involved in the day-to-day. It's hard, but it's much easier to do it by yourself than with the wrong person." She also spoke about the idea of marriage in the interview, saying, "Marriage was coined at a time when people died when they were 30. That stability would be nice, and I am definitely open-minded about it, but I don't need it in that way some women do." In 2022, Bloomberg became engaged to Justin Waterman, an investment banker. The couple has two children together: Sebastian (born 2023) and Scarlett (born 2025).

Georgina has adopted several rescue animals, and she has served as a vice president for Animal Aid USA. She co-founded the Humane Generation/Friends of Finn committee, an organization that works with the Humane Society of the United States on its Stop Puppy Mills campaign. In 2016, the Humane Society of the United States honored Georgina with the Compassion in Action Award. When she was 23, she founded the Riders' Closet to "ensure that riding apparel is accessible to scholastic riding programs, pony clubs, therapeutic and veterans programs, equine charities, equestrian camp programs, and individual riders in need." Bloomberg has been a member of the U.S. Equestrian Team's board of trustees as well of the boards of the Bloomberg Family Foundation, the Emma and Georgina Bloomberg Foundation, and the Hampton Classic Horse Show.

Real Estate

In June 2025, it was reported that Georgina's father, Michael, bought her a $4 million home in the Hamptons. The 3,000-square-foot waterfront home was built in 2012 and includes four bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a chef's kitchen, and a butler's pantry. According to Georgina's official website, she owns a farm in North Salem, New York, and her sport horses live there with "retired horses (including a former New York City carriage horse), her rescue dogs, and other rescued animals such as goats, rabbits, miniature horses, mules, and her endearing pig, Wilbur."
