Born in Gateshade in Newcastle, Jay Gardner joined MTV UK’s hit reality series Geordie Shore when it premiered in May 2011. Gardner appeared from season one through to season three. He later returned in season six and seven, appearing in 28 episodes in total.
So how did Gardner earn his money?
Gardner attended university before landing a job as a surveyor. He also played football, which he gave up when his social life started to gain traction.
After his appearance on Geordie Show, Gardner teamed up with a world-leading producer of high quality tans to launch his own range of tanning products, ‘Jay Tan’ which hit the internet in June 2013.
He also opened Attico and Verve, a bar in Sunderland on Sunderland’s Green Terrace alongside cast mate Ricci Guarnaccio. However after the bar was linked to the show, the pair sold the bar.
