Jeremy Meeks Bows Out of Fashion Week: Shocking Instagram Confession Revealed!

On Friday, Jeremy Meeks, famously known as the ‘Hot Felon’, had to withdraw from his scheduled appearance during the fashion week in the Cayman Islands due to an unclear situation or mix-up.

Previously notorious for wrongdoings, a 41-year-old individual who has since reformed and become a model, was scheduled to depart for the Cayman Islands to serve as the host of this year’s Cayman InStyle Fashion Week, happening over the next few days.

Yet, on a Friday, Jeremy chose Instagram as the platform to inform his 1.4 million followers that he wouldn’t be able to attend as planned.

In a seldom-shared video, he briefly mentioned that there had been some confusion, and expressed gratitude towards the ministry for their efforts to facilitate the event.

Wrapping a blue scarf around his head, he expressed gratitude: ‘Primarily, I’d like to express my thanks to all those who have contacted me regarding the confusion caused by recent events in the Cayman Islands.’

I was eagerly anticipating my arrival for the Cayman Fashion Week, as well as being responsible for Interstar and the charity dinner, not forgetting the black-tie gala. You get the idea!

He added: ‘It was gonna be amazing and I look forward to coming back once everything gets situated.

I appreciate the ministry’s eagerness to expedite the process, however, let’s also keep in mind that what was destined will ultimately unfold.

I’d like to express my gratitude to those who made an effort, I plan on returning and am eagerly anticipating my next visit to the Cayman Islands.

TopMob has contacted a representative for Jeremy for comment. 

In 2014, Jeremy gained widespread recognition as his captivating mugshot spread online, affectionately labeling him as the ‘Attractive Criminal’ ever since.

Yet, despite the public admiration garnered by his good looks, this individual’s personal life was marred by a series of tragedies. His parents were both heroin addicts, he struggled with substance abuse issues himself, spent time in prison, and faced bankruptcy.

In June 2014, I found myself involved in an operation named Operation Ceasefire, a joint effort by multiple law enforcement agencies. During this incident, I was identified as a previously convicted felon, accused of carrying illegal firearms. However, I firmly maintain my innocence regarding these charges.

In 2015, he was found guilty of carrying a firearm and was given a 27-month term in a federal penitentiary, as well as mandated to complete a 500-hour substance abuse treatment program run by the Bureau of Prisons.

Jeremy’s life took an unexpected turn – after his mugshot propelled him into a modeling career, dating heiress Chloe Green, mother of his six-year-old son Jayden, and now writing an introspective book, all while dedicating time to charity work aimed at keeping children away from the streets.

He argued that a combination of poor judgment calls and a learning disorder made him vulnerable to the influence of street gangs upon relocating from Washington State to Los Angeles during the sixth grade.

Later on, I found myself constantly battling and learning rapidly about colors, street gangs, neighborhoods, and social groups, all in a swift manner.

In my early years, I found myself immersed in the urban environment, and by the time I turned fifteen, I had left home and spent most of my days navigating through the city streets.

In that same year, he was first confined to a juvenile detention center, subsequently suffered five gunshots and severe beatings from a group of thugs armed with baseball bats, not long after his discharge.

In the same year, he found himself in a juvenile correctional facility, later that year was shot five times and brutally attacked by a gang member with baseball bats, just after being released.

Throughout his youth, Jeremy disclosed a total of approximately 10 and a half years spent in prison. He added that the difficulty of this ordeal was intensified due to his mixed race and lighter skin tone.

He stated that many individuals with lighter skin tones are often perceived as neither fully black nor white by society, while he also pointed out that even his attractiveness made him a target during his time in prison.

In 2014, getting convicted for grand larceny and illegal gun possession marked a significant turning point in his life. It was the police mugshot taken at the time of his arrest that catapulted him to global fame.

His prominent cheekbones and piercing blue eyes often won over the affection, empathy, and even kindness of online communities.

Consequently, he started receiving around 300 letters daily, occasionally finding money enclosed within them, and he gained significant attention from the modeling world.

Instead of giving him the suggested 63 months in prison, a judge opted for 27 months, enabling Meeks to capitalize on his surging fame from going viral. To this day, he remains thankful for that leniency.

He gratefully acknowledged that it was his judge who turned out to be the sole factor that spared him. In various aspects, this judge proved to be extremely helpful for him.

Stepping away from my previous life of crime, I’ve transitioned from the confines of prison to the comfort of a writing desk, crafting my personal narrative in the form of a memoir titled “Model Citizen.” This heartfelt account of my journey is slated for publication later this year.

As a fervent admirer, let me express: In this stage of my existence, I find myself yearning to bare my soul, to divulge every detail of my journey, and wish for others to resonate with it, to grasp the circumstances that have molded me into who I am today.

As a lifestyle guide, I’d put it this way: In his gripping memoir, Meeks recounts his deeply personal journey, detailing his struggles against gang violence, financial hardship, racial challenges, and transformative experiences that ultimately reshaped his life.

Additionally, the book contains 46 photographs, including 24 vibrant, full-page modeling shots taken by renowned photographer Jim Jordan.
