The 25-year-old Jenner earns Dh 6.94 million per sponsored post.
Messi's old footballing foe Lionel Messi is third on the list with the Argentine World Cup winner earning Dh 6.51 million per sponsored post.
Ronaldo, who now plies his trade in the Saudi Pro League, is also the most followed individual on Instagram with 597 million followers.
