Jonathan Scott Life

Jonathan Silver Scott (born John Ian Scott, 28 April 1978) is a Canadian reality television presenter, model, and film director.

He is best known as the co-host and twin brother Drew of the TV show Property Brothers, as well as the program's spin-offs Buying and Selling Brother Vs. On HGTV, Brothers and Property Brothers: At Home, which are shown in the United States.

Scott Brothers Entertainment, a North American and international broadcaster, is also a co-founder and executive producer.

The twins have launched Scott Living and Dream Homes, in addition to entertainment.

He lives in Las Vegas, Nevada, with his twin brother Drew.

Early life

Jonathan Scott was born in Vancouver, British Columbia, four minutes before his identical twin brother Drew Drew. He has an older brother, JD, and he is the second son of Jim and Joanne Scott. Jim had aspirations of being a cowboy as he had seen on television, and he so moved from Scotland to Canada as an adolescent. He worked in film as an actor, stuntman, and assistant director from the late 1970s to the present day. It was around this time when he decided to concentrate on raising his family, and the two families moved to a horse farm in Maple Ridge, British Columbia. While James served as a youth counselor, she and Joanne began her work as a paralegal in downtown Vancouver. Their father, who died on the twins' seventh birthday, encouraged them to work. They scouted through the help wanted ads, but they found JAM (for Jon, Andrew, and Mom), making nylon-wrapped clothes hangers. They have recalled selling them door to door, eventually selling thousands to a woman who sold American paraphernalia in Japan.

The boys' continuing schooling lead to their discovery of an advert that recruits child clowns to compete in parades. They were recruited at C$10 a week after completing classes with the local parks and recreation department, and eventually made more than $100,000 per hour. Jonathan grew tired of being made up and started to transition as a performer. He had attended a magic show one New Year's Eve that inspired him, and by the age of ten, he was designing his own magic props; by 15, he was using a barn as a workshop to create large-scale illusions. He consulted the definitive volumes of the Tarbell Course in Magic and sought out master illusionists David Wilson and Shawn Farquhar, who became mentors and acquaintances. He joined the Vancouver Magic Circle and the International Brotherhood of Magicians, and over the next decade, he received many accolades, including the third Best Stage Performer of the Pacific Coast Association of Magicians at 16.

When the boys were younger than eight years old, James would often rebuild and repair fences, decks, and barns. Even as children, the twins would often rearrange the furniture in their family's house. Jonathan and his father immigrated to Alberta, where they began to erect the parents' dream house. He spent his sophomore year there. Jonathan Silver was used as a stage name during that time, and he continues to use it more often. Jonathan returned to Maple Ridge to complete high school after his grades dropped, and his family and best friend Pedro helped with the installation.

Jonathan was at Thomas Haney Secondary School, and although they both played on the basketball and volleyball teams, Jonathan gravitated more to theater and clubs, where he served on several committees, including student government and the graduation committee. Following graduation, the family moved to a newly built house, just as the twins were headed to university in Calgary.

Personal life

Scott has two small dogs, Gracie and Stewie, who he refers to as his "kids." In a People interview, he said he wanted to have children before he was 45 years old and that if he is not in a relationship, he would adopt if he is not in a relationship.

Jonathan was feeling depressed, not socializing for more than six months, which Drew helped him with during his first season of Property Brothers. The twins, as well as their brother JD, maintain a "no B.S." They are always honest with each other if something bothers them, and then go about doing it; they praise it for helping them get along.

Scott appeared in a Nevada political ad advocating an amendment to the Nevada constitution that would have regulated the state's electricity market.

Scott married Kelsy Ully, a WestJet crew scheduler, in the summer of 2007. He wrote later that her model/waitress job at a day club soured their friendship when they moved to Las Vegas. They divorced in 2010 and then divorced.

He dated Jacinta Kuznetsov, a Canadian radio producer, from 2016 to April 2018.

Scott revealed that he and Zooey Deschanel had started dating after meeting on a Carpool Karaoke segment in August 2019. Deschanel revealed that she and her husband, Jacob Pechenik, were divorcing just one week after Deschanel revealed that she and her husband, Jacob Pechenik, were divorcing.

Jonathan Scott Career

Career

After graduation, Scott enrolled at the University of Calgary majoring in corporate administration. Despite being involved in entertainment, the twins did not want to be "starving artists" at all. Real estate would "ease the financial purgatory of being out-of-work actors" after investigating the issue and getting advice from their mother's law firm. They made a $250 down payment and bought a seven-bedroom house across the street from their university during their first semester of college, using a vendor take-back mortgage. They cleaned and repaired it, then sublet the remaining five rooms for $800 a month. They sold the house a year later for $50,000. They continued to buy and "flip" homes by making only modest improvements themselves, often living in the homes they were renovating.

With the intention of establishing a touring theater performance show, Scott moved to Vancouver at 19 years old. When he was looking for a management firm to work with, a fellow magician who appeared to be a friend of a friend who was out of the country approached him. Scott decided to rent multiple of his illusions after talks; the guy took the entire show and left Scott $80,000 in debt, effectively ending the show and leaving Scott $80,000 in debt. Despite a fruitful litigation, Scott was unable to recover what he owed even after a successful trial. He didn't inform his parents about what had happened and filed for bankruptcy, which he regrets. At the time a small, startup airline, Drew convinced Jonathan to join him as a flight attendant, giving them more time to devote to flipping houses.

Scott studied building and design at the Southern Alberta Institute of Technology and the Professional Home Builders Institute and then became licensed as a contractor. In those capacities, the twins restored and sold houses for 15 years. They supported themselves with a variety of jobs along the way, including busboy, mall security guard, flight attendant, store manager, and website designer. The twins and their older brother co-founded Dividian Production Group, an independent film production company in 2002, when they were still planning to pursue careers in entertainment.

Drew became a licensed realtor after several bad experiences with real estate brokers, and Jonathan obtained his own license shortly after. Scott Real Estate Inc., a business that would provide customers with a "one stop shop" for buying, selling, and renovating houses, as well as in architecture consulting and staging open houses, was established in the same year. Drew left Vancouver in January 2006 to pursue his acting career in earnest. As the year came to an end, he took out a license in Vancouver and opened a Scott Real Estate branch there. Scott stayed in Calgary to operate the company alone, with some employees requiring as many as 18 hours per day. In July 2007, he married his fiancée.

Scott and his wife were on a daily basis in Las Vegas, attracted to the city's live entertainment scene long before getting married. When the Canadian real estate market collapsed in 2008, Scott saw a chance to buy cheap real estate in the United States, where the recession was still present. If persuading JD to join them, Scott and his wife moved to Las Vegas in December, buying their house in the nearby suburb of Summerlin, Nevada. Scott Real Estate's third branch opened, but at only 80% of market rates to help renters who were still recovering from the ongoing recession. At the same time, the move to Las Vegas put him in close proximity to live venues and opportunities to perform magic. He began to look at ways to revive his career as an illusionist, at least on a part-time basis.

Drew was invited to audition for a show called Realtor Idol, which is based on the American Idol style. The pilot never arrived, but the producers learned he had a brother who was a builder, and they created a show about the pair, called My Dream Home; the company would later film the pilot for Property Brothers. Multiple North American networks refused to air the show before it was picked up by the W Network in Canada for a full season. HGTV (under Scripps Networks Interactive), the network's top-rated show, has signed on as a distributor after being long-served on the program. In the meantime, the twins delegated their private clients to colleagues in their network of traders and trade professionals, and Scott put his dreams on hold, but his magical aspirations were on hold.

Dividian Production Group became Scott Brothers Entertainment in 2010 and the brothers converted it into a television, film, and digital media firm with offices in the United States and Canada. Many spinoffs have arisen from Property Brothers' success, including Buying and Selling (2012-present) and Brother vs. Presenter (2013 – Present) Brother (2013 – Present). By 2014, the shows' total viewership had grown to more than 26 million. They stopped welcoming private clients as their filming schedules increased. Brothers Take New Orleans and the 2016 web series In the Scott Seat have since been extended to include other one-off series.

In 2011, the twins decided to sell their homes and jointly purchase a house with the intention of creating a hub for their extended family and friends. Scott, who is now separated from his wife, started looking for a house that met all of their criteria (mainly within 20 minutes of the airport). They later purchased a foreclosed house for $400,000. Scott was in first place, and they didn't live alone for three years before starting to improve. The project became the foundation of a fourth television series, Property Brothers: At Home, with a US$2 million renovation budget. It was also the first production under Scott Brothers Entertainment's banner. The show premiered in 2014 in the United States and on the W Network in Canada, as well as in 2015. Scott and his brothers created Property Brothers: At Home on the Ranch, their second spin-off show; they returned to Alberta to finish a 10-week renovation on a family friend's Rocky Mountain home. In Drew's Honeymoon House, a five-episode chronicle of Drew and his fiancée Linda Phan's renovation of their Los Angeles home, Scott co-starred. In November 2017, it debuted. Jonathan appeared in Drew and Linda Say I Do, the TLC special that chronicled Drew's wedding. Jonathan was portrayed in a moving way in this best man address by the time.

Property Brothers: Forever Home debuted on May 28, 2019, the latest in the franchise that focuses on home improvement, according to the brothers' restoration of the house that was used on the 1970s program The Brady Bunch.
