American Amber Frey has an estimated net worth of $400 thousand. She was born Amber Dawn Frey on February 10, 1975 in Los Angeles, California. She gained her net worth after the publication of her book about her affair with Scott Peterson. She came to national prominence as the prosecution witness during the well-publicized investigation to the disappearance of his wife Lisa Peterson who was pregnant at that time. Peterson was charged for the murder of his wife and unborn child in 2002. He is currently in the death row of San Quentin prison.

Frey was a beauty therapist who runs a Clovis day spa and maintains a simple life with her daughter in California before she met Peterson. She met him through her best friend and she did not know that he was dating a married man. Her best friend found out that he was actually married and threatened him to expose everything unless he told Frey about it. However, Amber discovered new information from her very good friend John Byrd who is a homicide detective. He told her that her boyfriend was indeed married and her pregnant wife was reported missing. Peterson was the prime suspect and with this information, Frey agreed to help the police with the investigation. She will have to record future conversations with him. One of the recorded conversations revealed that Peterson admitted to his wife’s disappearance, the investigation and his innocence in murdering his wife.

Amber Frey then came out to testify at Peterson’s trial giving in detailed account of their six-week relationship. The recorded conversations were made public and this gave her a time to fight to keep her business and home. With her experience, she wrote a book called Witness For Prosecution of Scott Peterson. There were plans to do a screenplay. Myths of the Flesh and another book, Memoirs of a Sex Addict, detailed her short-lived relationship with Peterson. However, Frey is being sued by author and artist Robert Reynosa for $250,000 for breaking her end of the contract. She is said to have refused to credit her name to all written materials.

Frey is a former client of Gloria Allred. She has two children: Ayianna with ex-boyfriend Christopher Funch, and Justin with ex-boyfriend/boss David Markovich.
