Jaime King Net Worth $8 Million
Jaime King was raised with three siblings in her hometown by her father, Robert King, and her mother, Nancy King, who was a beauty queen. She went to modeling school Nancy Bounds’ Studios – and Westside High School – from which she dropped out in 1995 to concentrate on her modeling career. She was later home-schooled through the University of Nebraska’s program.
Speaking about her modeling career, it began in 1993, when she was spotted by model agent Michael Flutie, after which she signed a contract to Company Management and appeared in advertising commercials for Abercrombie & Fitch. She has also appeared in such magazines as Vogue, Seventeen and Glamour, as well as on the cover of the New York Times Magazine in 1996, which marked the beginning of an increase of her net worth. Moreover, she was hired as the co-host of the TV series “House Of Style” on the MTV channel, along with actress Rebecca Romijn, in 1998.
Jaime’s professional acting career began in 2001, when she made her debut film appearance in the role of Pixel in “Happy Campers”, for which she won a nomination in the category for Best Actress at the DVD Exclusive Awards. During the same year, she was cast as Kristina Jung in the film “Blow”, and starred as Betty Bayer along with Johnny Depp, and in the film entitled “Pearl Harbor”, directed by Michael Bay. However, her breakthrough year was 2005, when she appeared in such film titles as “Pretty Persuasion” in the role of Kathy Joyce, “Sin City” portraying twins Goldie and Wendy, and in Al Pacino’s “Two For The Money” as Alexandria. In the following year, she featured as Samantha in the film “The Tripper” and by the end of the decade, Jaime was also cast as Vanessa Flood in the TV series “Gary Unmarried” (2008-2009) and as Sarah Palmer in the 2009 film “My Bloody Valentine”. All of these roles added a considerable amount to her net worth.
In 2011, Jaime was chosen to portray Lemon Breeland in the TV series “Hart Of Dixie”, which lasted until 2015, increasing enormously her popularity as well as her net worth. Parallel with filming it, she starred in the role of Aubrey Bradimore in the 2012 film “Silent Night”, played Toni Jo Henry in the film entitled “The Pardon” (2013), and appeared as Analyst Knight in the film “Barely Lethal” in 2015.
Most recently, Jaime featured as Elise in the TV film “The Mistletoe Promise” (2016), and as Beth in the 2017 film “Bitch”, directed by Marianna Palka. It‘s been announced that she will appear in such titles as “Escape Plan 2: Hades” and “Ice Cream In The Cupboard”, so her net worth will certainly increase in the following years.
Regarding her personal life, Jaime King has been married to director, producer and screenwriter Kyle Newman since 2007; the couple has two children together. She previously dated musician Kid Rock and fashion photographer Davide Sorrenti. Her current residence is in Los Angeles, California. In her spare time, Jaime is active on her official Twitter and Instagram accounts.

I've always been really athletic, which really helped, because when I first started doing the training for Bulletproof Monk, it required so much strength that if I didn't have a base I don't really know what I would have done.

But the funny thing is, I broke my finger not on set doing kung fu. I broke my finger when I fell down the stairs prior to going on set.

I think that's what's great about being an actress is you get to learn so many different things like that, like learning a little bit of Tibetan here, learning a Southern accent there.

I like doing accents and I like learning as much as I can learn.

I felt like the dark hair added like a toughness to my face also, which was really important.
