Does Jake Harris have a wife?

Considering the fact that Jake has no publicly available social media pages, it's quite hard to keep up with details surrounding his personal life. Some sites have reported that Jake is supposedly married to a woman named Jenna, but it doesn't look like there's any confirmation.

Josh told TV Show Ace in 2021 a few details about his brother's relationship status.

"[Jake's] in a new relationship. His girl has a couple of kids, and he loves being a dad, and he’s really good at it," he said at the time. "He’s really good with kids. That keeps him really busy. He’s been hanging out with my kid a lot too. He’s the awesome uncle, and whenever he’s over at my house, my daughter doesn’t even talk to me. It’s like, 'OK, Dad…'"

However, it's unclear if Jake is still currently in a relationship with this same person.

What has Jake Harris been in trouble for?

Although we may not know a whole lot about Jake's private life as of the time of writing, there is plenty of information about his past mishaps.

After his father, Phil Harris, passed away on Feb. 9, 2010, from a pulmonary embolism, Jake started using drugs and alcohol to cope with the loss.

In the time since his father died, Jake has been charged with three DUIs as well as one reduced DUI. His 2019 arrest, which came as a result of a police chase that stemmed from his having a motor home with half an ounce of heroin and distribution materials, landed him in jail for 18 months.

After being released, Jake unfortunately was arrested once again in 2021 for the third DUI.
