Who are Jeffree Star parents?

Jeffrey Steininger Sr. (father)

Jeffree Star’s father committed a suicide, when the boy was just 6, so most part of his son’s growing up process he wasn’t near him. The boy resided with his grandparents in their Huntington Beach house. In one of his videos Jeffree explained, that considered his uncle Phil, his father’s brother, as his “second father”.

Jeffree has troubled relationships with his mother. In one of his videos he confessed, that they had always quarreled a lot and he hadn’t speak to her during 10 years. “One third of my life I didn’t speak to her”, Star said. Then he made his fans sure, that she is back in his life. The woman used to work as a model. At home she had lots of fashion magazines, like “Cosmopolitan”. Suddenly her teen son started to read these magazines and copy looks from there. “I was obsessed with makeup”, the boy said. At first his mother couldn’t accept such an idea. But then she let her son wear makeup to school.

During many years Star told that his mother’s name is Laurie Steininger. In one of his recent videos Star opened up to his fans that Laurie, whom he previously introduced as his mother, is actually his aunt and she is not blood-related to him. She was the wife of his paternal uncle Phil. They were married during 33 years till his death in 2011. Star’s uncle was the only man in his aunt’s life.

Laurie Steininger and Jeffree got very close after his serious conflict with his mother. He started to post pics with her, and his followers began to send him compliments, telling, that he looks exactly like his beautiful mother. And he told that Laurie is his mom to keep the ratings high.

In fact, most part of his life Jeffree spent with his grandparents. His grandmother is 100 years old as for now. Her three sons and a husband passed away.

Laurie looks attractive in her not so young age (she doesn’t publicize the exact year of her birth).

She is a person of a complicated fate. As a girl she attended Pacifica High School. She married her first husband, Phil, Jeffree’s uncle, in 1978. They were school sweethearts. It seems that they had no children, because Star told, after her husband’s death Laurie was very lonely, and they both treated each other as a mother and a son.

Nowadays she lives in Garden Grove, CA. Laurie works at the local company “Philip B. Steininger Welding & Fab”, founded by her late husband. She is engaged to Gary Atchison.

At the same time, Star’s biological mother has been homeless for 4 years already and lived in her car. But the things changed for better, when she reconnected with her son.
