According to The Sun, they are earning an astonishing £7,142 per second!
The famous four apparently only speak for about 14 seconds each – that’s some quick and easy cash!
A source told The Sun: “It’s a win-win for everyone involved.
“It’s been a great marketing coup for M&S as they kept the celeb voices a secret until launch day so the impact has been great – and really got shoppers talking.
“And obviously there’s no such things as a free lunch – even from Marks and Spencer – so Ant, Dec, Alesha and Amanda all get paid as part of their BGT package.”
