You might know him as overgrown skateboard kid slinging commentary on videos of people falling down waterslides, but Rob Dyrdek is so much more than what he shows us in his role as the host of MTV's Ridiculousness, a long-running clip show that seems to be the only show on MTV these days (seriously, read up on that). The MTV star, worth approximately $100 million, is also a doting husband to wife Bryiana Noelle Flores Dyrdek and a proud papa bear to their two children, son Kodah Dash, born in September 2016, and daughter Nala Ryan, born in December 2017.
