Dysfunctional family
Jeremy was born in the small town of Tacoma, Washington. Besides him, there were 2 more girls and a boy growing up in the family. Sister Michelle took care of the younger children, since their mother Catherine Angier only had enough time for drugs and altercations with the law. His father was in prison at that time, and besides, the parents of his large family separated when Mix was still very young.

Brother Jeremy also did not find a common language with the law. Their mother's second husband had some positive influence on the children. He was the only adult who raised them. Understandably, with such an environment, Jeremy had little interest in studying. And having found himself in bad company, he began to live according to the laws of the street.

Arrest as a path to glory
The guy became acquainted with the police station at the age of 18. Since then he has become a regular there. Paradoxically, it was the police department that became a kind of impetus for the development of its popularity. After another arrest in the summer of 2014, Jeremy’s photo was posted by department employees on the Facebook page. He was accused of illegal possession of weapons, and the photo was a report on a successful fight against crime.

The man whom the media and social media users called the most handsome criminal, Jeremy Meeks, was detained in 2014 on charges of illegal possession of weapons. At that time he was 30 years old and already had many offenses on his record. At the same time, the California police posted his photo on Facebook - within a few hours this post received tens of thousands of likes, after which Meeks literally woke up famous. His photo went viral on the Internet, and modeling agencies began offering contracts to the criminal.
Adding to the charm of his image was the fact that Mix had three children and a wife waiting for him at home - a prison nurse who did not leave her husband, despite his problems with the law. Mix immediately announced that after his release he intended to return to his wife and children, and all problems with the law were in the past for him. In 2015, he was released, where his own manager and personal agent were already waiting for him, who were supposed to arrange the fate of the ex-criminal in the modeling business.
But his fame played a cruel joke on the family of the former prisoner - in 2017, Meeks was spotted by paparazzi in the company of Chloe Green, heir to the fashion brand Topshop, and after some time it became known that his wife filed for divorce. Now Meeks is engaged to the daughter of billionaire Green, and the couple often appears on the pages of glossy publications. Mix's ex-wife said in an interview with reporters that "her world was destroyed."
The most striking projects with the participation of Jeremy Meeks
With the rising wave of incredible popularity, a new, law-abiding lifestyle came to Mix. While still behind bars, he began receiving invitations from various modeling agencies. And the former adult film actress and now producer Gina Rodriguez undertook to represent the interests of the brutal prisoner in the fashion world.
After his release, his first contract was with the White Cross Management agency. At the beginning of 2021, Jeremy has already graced the catwalk of New York Fashion Week, and in the spring - the cover of the men's magazine Man About Town. Since then, Mix has constantly participated in photo shoots and shows, and has become the advertising face of headphones. According to him, he is forever tied to the world of crime.
In 2021, he visited Russia at the invitation of Olga Buzova’s team and became the hero of her video for the song “Wi-Fi”.
Mix’s plans include more than just modeling. The man wants to take part in some major Hollywood project, to star in a cool action movie. He practices acting every day and diligently stays in shape.
Previously, Jeremy wanted to star in the film Xxx: Return of Xander Cage, but did not manage to leave prison before completing work on the film.
Jeremy Meeks now
The first appearance of the tall (Jeremy’s height is 183 cm), athletic, dark-skinned handsome man with blue eyes took place at Milan Fashion Week. Moreover, the podium and the prison cell were separated by only a few weeks.
The ex-convict’s appearance at New York Fashion Week in February 2017 was no less triumphant. Mix's tattoos fit perfectly into the style of Philipp Plein's collection. The same specific tattoos do not give the police any reason to remove surveillance of Jeremy, since they continue to suspect the guy of belonging to a local gang called the Crips.
In between communicating with celebrities, shows and shooting for glossy magazines, Mix travels, improves his acting skills, works out his muscles in the gym and is slowly getting rid of tattoos.

Coming out of the cell, the guy said that he had firmly decided to give up his criminal past, and for now he was keeping his word. But the handsome man forgot about his paternal responsibilities: from Melissa’s interview with the British Daily Mail, it turned out that Jeremy stopped paying child support for his son.
In January 2018, Jeremy accepted Olga Buzova’s invitation to appear in the video for the song Wi-Fi. Mix was also seen in the company of Victoria Boni.
Personal life of Jeremy Meeks: first wife, Chloe Green and children
Jeremy Meeks' return from prison was eagerly awaited not only by the modeling business, but also by his family - his wife Melissa and 3 children, one of whom the couple shared. But the woman could not withstand the glory that fell on her husband, and then his betrayal. In early July 2021, paparazzi caught Jeremy passionately kissing Chloe Green, the daughter of Topshop owner Philip Green.

After Mix confirmed his relationship with Chloe Green, he was accused of wanting to become a gigolo. To which the American model retorted that he had no idea who this sweet and kind girl was before meeting her.
In August, Jeremy became a divorced man. And at the end of the year he became engaged to Chloe. And on May 29, 2021, Jaden Meeks-Green was born. Despite everything, the celebrity's new relationship turned out to be short-lived. The general photo of the couple, which appeared on Instagram in May 2019, turned out to be the last.

Jeremy's personal life
Many people know that the guy was married to a girl named Melissa. They had a son together, whom they named after Jeremy's father, and Melissa also had two more children from a previous marriage. All the children were raised by the two of them. The girl was the only one who was sincerely not happy that their family had become very popular overnight.
In addition, after the guy left prison, he completely immersed himself in social events, after which information thundered throughout the media that the man left his wife and children and went to Chloe Green, the heiress to a billion-dollar fortune. Melissa, having learned about this, told the press that she was filing for divorce, but according to the media, Jeremy was the first to do it, and the man did not forget to submit documents for the division of common property.
