Jodie Marsh was born in 1979, Brentwood, Essex, England. While one wouldn't normally think that being a scaffolding contractor could be especially lucrative, it certainly was for Jodie's father John. Along with her mother Kris and younger brother Jordan, she benefitted from an affluent lifestyle.
She quoted:"I've got much more style than Jordan. I don't just go out in a bra and knickers and I don't think I dress like a tart."

Bio
From a young age, Jodie was sent to an expensive private establishment known as the Brentwood School. While she was a smart kid who earned good grades, her school years were made difficult by persistent teasing and bullying.
Jodie claims that it all started when an older boy, the most popular kid in school, asked her out. She declined because she wanted to focus on her studies instead of her social life. This event signaled the beginning of tough times for Jodie.
Still, the bullying at school didn't cease, and it culminated in a punch in the face from a male student in her senior year. This incident was the last straw -- Jodie transferred to South East Essex College in Southend where she took classes in media studies, English, and photography.
Career
She found work as a stripper, in short time, she was discovered by people from the British tabloid The Sun, and was invited to become one of their Page 3 girls.
Her big break came in January 2003, when she was featured on the TV documentary Essex Wives. This show was about the lives of rich women who are both glossy and determined to make it in life. The show earned a lot of attention, as did Jodie, who was both hated and loved by the general public.
From there, Jodie further established herself as a glamour model. She made the front page of British magazine Front in August 2003, and her tabloid appearances became almost daily occurrences.
In July 2004, Jodie became the sex expert for Zoo magazine, kicking off the announcement with an 8-page pictorial.
