Early Life and Education

Jeremy McConnell is now 35 years old and was born on 22 February 1990 in Dublin, Ireland. His parents separated when he was just a year old and his mother died of a brain haemorrhage when he was 15. Within the span of around 15 months he also lost his brother in a motorcycle accident and his sister due to a heart attack after having suffered epilepsy. His early upbringing involved coping with very difficult family circumstances and profound loss.

Personal Life

Jeremy McConnell became a father in January 2017 when his son Caben was born to his then-girlfriend, actress and television personality Stephanie Davis. The pair had a highly publicised relationship which ended acrimoniously, and in August 2017 he received a suspended prison sentence for assaulting Davis.

Later, in November 2019 McConnell’s girlfriend Katie McCreath gave birth to their daughter Storm. He has not been officially married. He continues to raise his two children amidst his career and public life.

Career

Jeremy McConnell began his modelling career and in 2012 he took part in the Mr Ireland contest and was runner-up (though some reports claimed otherwise). He did win the title Mr Dublin. He then starred on MTV’s reality show Beauty School Cop Outs alongside fellow models and reality personalities, which helped him gain recognition beyond modelling.

In January 2016 he entered the Celebrity Big Brother house for the 17th series, where he stayed 26 days before being evicted after receiving the fewest public votes. Following his time on reality television, McConnell’s visibility has been sustained through social media endorsements, modelling assignments and public appearances, though he has not yet established a conventional acting or music career.

Net worth

Jeremy McConnell’s estimated net worth stands at approximately £500,000, derived from his modelling work, television appearances, brand endorsements and social media activity.

Controversy

Jeremy McConnell has been involved in multiple controversies. In August 2017 he was sentenced to 20 weeks in prison (suspended for 12 months) and ordered to complete 200 hours of community service after pleading guilty to assaulting his then-girlfriend Stephanie Davis.

Later in November 2017 he was jailed when the suspended sentence was activated due to his failure to attend community service appointments, while he travelled abroad for cosmetic procedures (hair and beard transplant). These legal issues attracted extensive media coverage and public scrutiny. The relationship with Stephanie Davis and subsequent legal proceedings remain key parts of his public narrative.
