Heidi Mark’s Age and Family Background
Heidi Mark was born Heidi Lynn Marke on February 18, 1971, in Columbus, Ohio, USA. She is 57 old and 10 years younger than her former husband Vince Neil. Vince was born on February 8, 1961. The Motley Crue leadman is 63 years old at the moment.
It is said that Heidi’s father, John Emil Marke, a citizen of Finland, moved to the United States, where he most likely met and married Heidi’s mum Kathleen Dennison. Heidi Mark enjoys dual citizenship in both Finland and the USA. She attended and graduated from Santaluces Community High School in Lantana, Florida. That was in 1989. Years later, she bagged a bachelor’s degree from Palm Beach State College, Lake Worth, Florida.
What Does She Do For a Living?
Heidi Mark once worked as a waitress with Hooters, an American restaurant where the servers dress in revealing outfits. She was selected as Miss July (Playmate of the Month in 1995) after she appeared in Playboy’s Girls of Hooters pictorial. According to her, ridiculous offers began to flood in, urging her to act in Xrated films. Heidi turned them down and turned to performing in TV series and movies.
Heidi got her first taste of the film industry when she appeared in an episode of Red Shoe Diaries in 1994. She went on to play Allison Wilson in Thunder in Paradise (1994) and Sharon Collins-Newman in The Young & The Restless that same year. This was also the year she posed nude for the magazine cover of Playboy Playmate. She was axed from The Young and Restless crew thereafter as the showrunners deemed it necessary to disassociate from a possible scandal.
Heidi Mark’s IMDb page shows she has been involved in over 30 movies and TV series. She played Kirk’s wife in the 2017 movie The Women Behind the Women: Behind Steel Dragon. Some of her other notable roles are in Ocean Ave (2002-2003), Man of the Year (2002), and Rock Star (2001). She has also performed alongside big acts like Mark Wahlberg, Jennifer Aniston, and Dominic West.
What’s Heidi Mark’s Net Worth?
Heidi has spent a considerable amount of time working in showbiz. It isn’t surprising that her net worth is estimated to be around $1 million. Some speculate that her divorce from Motley Crue star man Vince Neil contributed to her net worth. While people are permitted to assume, caution should be exercised because the contents of the settlement weren’t revealed.
Heidi Mark’s ex-husband Vince has an impressive net worth valued at $50 million. Thanks to the royalty streaming from album sales and concerts, Vince can live lavishly. In addition to income from his music career, Neil has a couple of businesses, including a bar, a restaurant, and a clothing line.
Heidi Mark and Vince Neil Got Married In 2000
The two first met in 1993 through a blind date initiated by Heidi Mark’s makeup artist. Satisfied with what he had seen, Neil went the extra mile to convince Heidi to date him. At the time, she was married to Terry Mark. Not able to withstand Vince’s irresistible charm, Heidi found a perfect getaway from her then-hubby. In 1994, she divorced Terry and dated Vince for seven years.
They eventually tied the knot on May 28, 2000. Her marriage to Vince made her the third woman to be called his wife. He was previously married to Beth Lynn (first wife) and Sharise Ruddell (second wife). When fans watched Heidi Mark and Vince Neil exchange marital vows, they weren’t prepared for the breakup that would follow shortly.
They Divorced In August 2001
Heidi Mark and Vince Neil might have hoped for a marriage filled with butterflies and bliss, but it never happened. Heidi accused Vince of cheating and being invested heavily in drug and alcohol use. She also accused him of domestic violence. Due to the nature of his job, it isn’t surprising that Vince found comfort in abusing substances and living a chaotic lifestyle. One wonders if Heidi was blind to his excesses after spending seven years dating him. Vince didn’t let Heidi’s allegations slide; he fought back with counteraccusations, resulting in a bitter drama that climaxed into their divorce in August 2001.
Where Is Heidi Mark Now?
If not for records, one wouldn’t believe Heidi Mark had anything to do with Vince Neil. The former model and actress has moved on with her life, leaving no traces of her ties with Neil. Even though she had had two failed marriages, it didn’t discourage her from taking another shot at matrimony. Mark is currently married to a fellow named Jim James, with whom she exchanged vows in January 2004.
The couple has two children: a son, Deuce, and a daughter, Georgia, born on July 4, 2013. She’s now committed to spending quality time with her family while keeping them away from the public’s prying eyes. Heidi Mark hasn’t been seen in any movie or TV show since 2017; Showbizers can confirm she has relegated her career to the background to focus on being a mother and a wife.
