Born into a Jewish family

Casey Neistat was born Casey Owen Neistat on March 25, 1981, in Gales Ferry, a small town in Connecticut. A Jewish family raised him by his father, Barry Neistat and his mother, Amy Neistat. Interestingly, his mother was watching horror movies at the time of Casey’s birth. His dad was a restaurant supplies salesman who sold fork knives and dishwashers.

As per Casey himself, his Youtube career was wonderfully unsupervised. He grew up alongside three siblings, Dean Neistat, sister Jordan Neistat and a brother Van Neistat with whom he later worked together in his struggling days. Casey grew up in the poor, middle-class part of Connecticut.

Currently, 36-year-old Casey attended Grammar schools and later joined Ledyard high school. By the time he was in his senior year, his parents had divorced, for which he blames his mother. Following his parent’s separation, he started living with his mother, whom he didn’t like since she was always dominating. At one time, she told him to do as she said or get out of the house. Eventually, he left the house on Tuesday at 9 pm when he was 15.

Early fatherhood and Struggle

Upon leaving his family, he moved to a friend’s house for a while before moving to his girlfriend’s apartment. His girlfriend lived with her friend, but after some months, they got into a fight, so his girlfriend’s friend left the house. So Casey and his girlfriend got a Honda and went to Virginia when his younger brother was studying in college.

During his stay in Virginia, his girlfriend got pregnant, so he moved back to his hometown and dropped out of high school. Casey and his girlfriend lived in a friend’s basement and started working in a restaurant as a dishwasher for $8 an hour.

At 17, he moved to Brooklyn and stayed at his brother’s apartment, who had recently brought an iMac. Sadly, he broke up with his girlfriend the same year his son was born. It was the hardest time for Casey, but since he had Imac, he started shooting his son’s video for fun.

Nevertheless, he moved to Newyork in June 2001 at 20 years of age and met a guy named Tom Sacks, his brother’s friend. He worked as an assistant to Tom, who was a movie maker, and later started working with his brother Van making birthday videos. In 2003 he got his first iPod, but since the battery died in a year and a half, he decided to make a video about electronic defects. It was his first video which Casey uploaded on video, which eventually turned out to be a big hit.

Additionally, his life changed after meeting a guy named Tom Scott, who ran a local TV channel group and hired Casey and his brother to make videos. He made eight movies at a time, later sold them to HBO, and decided to shift his focus to Youtube. Eventually, there was no stopping him after that since he started getting views and became a popular figure on Youtube.

Marriage and Affairs

Casey married creative director and jewelry designer Candice Pool. The couple eloped and got married in 2005 in Houston, Texas. Sadly soon after tieing the knot, it ended with an annulment in about a month. Annulment is the legal procedure that cancels a marriage and declares that the marriage never technically existed and was never valid. The reason behind the legal annulment is still a mystery.

However, fortunately, the couple reconciled after he called her and asked her to get engaged, which they did on February 18, 2013. They walked down the aisle for the second time on December 29, 2019, in a Jewish tradition in Capetown, South Africa. As of now, the couple is happily married and shares two daughters.

Furthermore, Casey was previously in relation at age 15 with a girl from his hometown named Robin Harris. They met each other when he had left his house. He started living with her, and they went on a vacation to New York together. They remained together until the child’s birth and separated after she left her in 2001.

Father of three

Casey is the father of one son and two daughters from his two partners. He became a father to a son named Owen Nesitat at 17 on April 14, 1998. Owen is a YouTuber who shares a close relationship with his father, more like friends. He is currently studying at the University of San Francisco as per his Linkedin account.

Additionally, Neistat welcomed two beautiful girls with his marriage to Candice. The couple welcomed their first daughter Francine Neistat on December 6, 2014. She made her YouTube debut in her father’s video “Her Water Broke.” Likewise, she frequently appears in photos on her father’s insanely popular Instagram account.
