‘Hot mugshot guy’ Jeremy Meeks flaunts his luxury lifestyle on Instagram

HE shot to fame in 2014 for his sexy mugshot. Now “hot criminal” turned model Jeremy Meeks is living the high life and hasn’t looked back.

TWO years ago, Jeremy Meeks was dubbed the world’s hottest criminal after his police mugshot went viral.

Now the ex-con has been posting pictures of a luxury lifestyle that proves that life after crime does pay, The Sun reports.

The gang member turned male model from California was jailed in 2014 on weapons charges but his sexy mugshot, posted on the Stockton police Facebook page, had women begging to be “locked up with him” and had model agencies queuing at his cell door.

After being released in March last year, “hot mugshot guy” has been keeping his 612,000 Instagram followers up to date with his new career — and it’s clearly going well.

Two months ago, the 32-year-old has shared a picture of him posing with a Maserati in front of his huge mansion with the caption, “Good to be home.” In another shot, he posed topless in front of the luxury home.

In addition to his sultry modelling pics, Meeks shared touching snaps of him with his wife Melissa and their children.

“Celebrating our 8 year anniversary today and 50 more to go. Through thick and thin! #blessed #loved #anniversary #marriage,” he captioned one picture.

Another seasonal snap shows the couple with three children by a Christmas tree.

Fans were happy to see that Meeks’s life of crime was behind him.

On the Maserati picture, one posted: “Moving on up!”

Another added: “Very nice, proud you are doing well. Your Boys and Wife need you.”

One admirer commented: “No matter what you did always remember, every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future.”

After being jailed in Nevada in 2014, Meeks was signed by White Cross Management.

“I’m in a place where I will be able to provide for my family and really change my life,” he told ABC News in the US.

“I never thought that everyone in the world would recognise me for my looks, so I feel extremely blessed and very thankful.”
