Kevin Selleck Tom Selleck’s son: Net worth, background, career, family, drug addiction

What is Kevin Selleck net worth?

Kevin Selleck, born Kevin S. Shepard in 1966 in the United States, is an actor best known for being the adopted son of Tom Selleck, a well-known American actor.

Background

Kevin was born to former model and actress Jacqueline Ray, while his biological father is only known by his surname – Shepard. Kevin was adopted by Tom Selleck when he was 21 years old, after Tom married his mother Jacqueline; the two divorced in the summer of 1992, but Tom remained in Kevin’s life and helped him land roles and advance in the film industry. Hannah is Kevin’s step-sister.

Kevin graduated from high school in Los Angeles, California, and then joined a local rock band instead of attending college.

Career

Kevin began his career as a drummer in 1993, when he and four friends formed the Tonic rock band, which also included Emerson Hart, the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist, Jeff Ruso, the lead guitarist, Dan Lavery, the bass guitarist, and Dan Rothchild, who is also a bass guitarist. Their debut album, “Lemon Parade,” was released in July 1996, and its singles “Open Up Your Eyes” and “Soldier’s Daughter” both charted on the Billboard 200 and the Hot 100; the album eventually went platinum.

Kevin left the band in December 1996, citing family problems, following a fight with another member of the band. After leaving Tonic, he attempted to form another band, but it was unsuccessful, and the venture was short-lived. In 1980, he appeared in the TV series “Magnum, P.I.” starring his stepfather Tom Selleck, which helped launch his acting career. In 1997, he assisted him in appearing in the horror film “Scream 2,” for which Kevin also wrote the soundtrack.

Kevin has dabbled in modeling over the years, but only as a hobby rather than a profession. He has been interested in music and acting since he was a child, and he is a big fan of the old rock music scene, with Aerosmith and Guns ‘n’ Roses among his favorite bands.

Being raised by his stepfather Tom got him into the film industry, which he still enjoys – he mostly watches comedy action movies starring actors like Jim Carrey and Johnny Depp – some of his favorite movies include “Ace Ventura” and the “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise.

Kevin has traveled extensively over the years, with his dream travel destination being Berlin, Germany. He has also visited several Asian countries with his father, including Japan and China.

Kevin was sent to the Betty Ford rehabilitation center at the age of 22 due to his drug addiction; while he initially refused, he was persuaded by Tom, and it appears that the rehabilitation program helped Kevin get clean. Kevin was facing charges in 2011 after accumulating a $6,000 bill with a credit card company.

Relationships and love life

Kevin and Annabel Selleck allegedly met while attending the same high school; they dated for over a decade before marrying in the 1990s.

Kevin and Annabel are attempting to keep their family out of the spotlight despite the fact that they have six children together.
