Jeremy Paxman’s Bio: Family Ups And Downs To Professional Details

Jeremy Dickson Paxman, also known as Jeremy Paxman, was born on 11 May 1950 in West Riding of Yorkshire, England. He is the son of Arthur Keith Paxman, an industrial worker, and Joan McKay.

Jeremy grew up as the eldest of four children in his family. His brother, Giles Paxman, served as the British Ambassador to Spain. Meanwhile, his other younger brother, James Paxman, is the chief executive of the Dartmoor Preservation Association. Jeremy’s only sister, Jenny, is a producer at BBC Radio.

Jeremy’s father always created a hard time for him growing up. He stood firm in his statement that reporting was not a worthwhile career for Jeremy. Besides, the relationship between father and son went cold as Keith left Jeremy and his family to later get remarried in Australia.

Despite the hard times, Jeremy aimed to carry his journalism career to a new height. After graduating from Malvern Colege, Jeremy went on to read English at St Catharine’s College in Cambridge. Meantime, he edited the undergraduate newspaper Varsity while in Cambridge.

Jeremy was the BBC’s highest-paid presenters in 2010 when he signed the contract worth £3.2 million for four years. Meanwhile, he amassed a hefty salary as a Newsnight presenter, which undoubtedly has boosted his already appealing net worth.
