Jason Priestley

Best known for his role as Brandon Walsh on the original Beverly Hills, 90210, Jason Priestley grew up in Canada before relocating to California amid his early acting success.

Priestley, who earned two Golden Globe nominations for his Beverly Hills, 90210 gig, ultimately exited the series in 1998. Despite his early departure from the show, the actor directed 15 episodes of Beverly Hills, 90210 and an episode of The CW’s 90210 spinoff.

The Order alum continued acting, landing roles in Call Me Fitz, Tombstone, I Want to Marry Ryan Banks and Enter the Dangerous Mind. 

Priestley reunited with his Beverly Hills, 90210 castmates on the BH90210 reboot, which aired on FOX in 2019. The revival, which followed a sensationalized version of the OG stars planning to mount a spinoff, was canceled after one season.

The Calendar Girl actor married Ashlee Petersen in 1999, one year before they called it quits. Later in 2000, Priestley moved on with Naomi Lowde after meeting at a crosswalk in London, where he was acting in a West End production of Side Man. The Private Eyes alum and the makeup artist — who wed in 2005 after four years together — share daughter Ava and son Dashiell.
