Jeremy Meeks, the "Hot Felon" whose mugshot catapulted him to fame in 2014, is embracing a chill vibe in the bedroom. In an interview with journalist Shirley Ju, posted on X on August 6th, he confessed to being single and abstinent. "I'm currently without a lady in my life," Jeremy revealed. "I've been celibate for close to three years now."
When quizzed about his decision to lead a celibate existence, the 41-year-old, affectionately known as "Prison Bae," remarked, "'Cause I need to stay focused." Jeremy was previously married to Melissa Meeks for nearly a decade before their divorce in 2018, following a scandalous incident where he was seen kissing Topshop heiress Chloe Green. Jeremy shares a 16-year-old son with Melissa, named Jeremy Jr., and a seven-year-old son, Jayden, with Chloe, whom he parted ways with after two years together.
Though he's not currently involved in any romantic relationships, Jeremy has expressed the profound importance of his past partnerships. "I share an amazing bond with Chloe," he told Extra in 2020. "And I now have a wonderful relationship with the mother of my eldest son." He further added, "We're all co-parenting. They are both extraordinary mothers."
Eleven years have passed since Jeremy's mugshot went viral, captured after his arrest on firearm possession charges. This journey has given him a fresh perspective on his life's trajectory and the acting and modeling opportunities that have come his way. Inspired by this journey, Jeremy penned his 2024 autobiography, titled Model Citizen. "I'm at a stage in my life where I'm incredibly vulnerable and yearn to share my story," he explained in a statement to People in 2024. "I hope people can relate to it and comprehend how I arrived at this point in my life."
The book delves deeply into the 13 months he spent behind bars following his 2015 conviction. According to its synopsis, it's a "personal narrative about his struggles with gang violence, poverty, racial issues, and the pivotal, life-altering moments that turned his world upside down."
