The American model was born on February 7th, 1984 in Tacoma, Washington Dc, USA. He is one of Katherine Angier’s two children. He has a brother named Emery Meeks and is from Stockton, California.

In most cases, adolescents find it difficult to cope with thetrials of life and often some of them tend to take the wrong path. Such was the case for Jeremy, who was serving a two-year sentence at the age of 18 for abusing and injuring a much younger child. In prison he became a member of the North Side Gangster Crips.

After serving his prison sentence, he was arrested again on June 18, 2014 after being caught in his car in possession of ammunition and marijuana. He was charged with five criminal weapons and a gang and sentenced to 27 months in prison.

By that time he had gained notoriety as one of the most violent criminals in Stockton, California. Upon his arrest, investigations conducted revealed that he was convicted of theft in 2005 and counterfeiting in 2007, serving less than 75 days for both crimes.

Jeremy Meeks never knew that despite his problems, there was always a light at the end of the tunnel. While he was held as an inmate, tongues wagged at his appearance and most headlines about his arrest were sold for their headline; as he was often tagged as a hotshot felon. Within a short time, he caught the attention of Jim Jordan, who subsequently got him to sign a deal with White Cross Management. After his prison sentence, Meeks began a career as a model that brought him worldwide recognition.

He made his first runway debut during New York Fashion Week in February 2017 and then Vogue Magazine got him on their cover, describing him as a buff bad boy. In June of the same year, he was one of the catwalk models attending Milan Fashion Week, working under the direction of fashion designer Philipp Plein. He followed up his exploits by appearing in a campaign for Israeli sunglasses fashion house Carolina Lemke. In 2018, Meeks was the face of the FashionNova Men brand.
