Jeremy Meeks: Niece Says He ‘Gave His Heart To God,’ Not Crime
Jeremy’s niece, who lives in Florida, is opening up about her Internet-famous uncle. “He is a loving father, husband, brother and uncle,” Jeremy’s niece tells Mail Online. “He has a past and because of it he is being stereotyped. We wish all the judgement would stop… He just wants to get home to his family.”
Jeremy’s niece claims her uncles life of crime ended when he settled down with his wife, had a son and discovered a higher power. “He gave his heart to God, that is why he changed,” she reveals. When pressed about why Jeremy was carrying a gun the night he was put in the slammer, his niece admits she’s not sure, but doesn’t think it wasn’t for anything deadly. “I assure you IF it was his he wasn’t using it for terrorism or anything remotely close,” she explains. Well — that’s good.
The niece also opens up about what Jeremy’s wife thinks of his newfound sex symbol status. “She just wants everything to go back to normal,” she confesses. With Jeremy’s female fanbase growing bigger by the day, we’re guessing Jeremy’s “normal” after-jail life will still be VERY different from the past.
