Background

Harry Jowsey was born on May 24, 1997, in Queensland, Australia. He spent considerable time caring for his favorite pet bull on a farm in the tiny town, Yeppoon. He lived most of his life in New Zealand with his family, but moved to Los Angeles, California, to pursue his career.

Jowsey began his career as a model and worked with some big brands. Notably, he worked as an undergarment model for Tommy Hilfiger. In 2019, Jowsey appeared in the Australian dating show “Heartbreak Island” where he won $100,000 with his then-partner, Georgia Bryers. They confirmed their split on the day the finale was broadcast. In 2020, he appeared in season one of Netflix’s “Too Hot to Handle” and featured alongside Canadian model Francesca Farago. The duo was by far the most “handsy” pair in the series, and their actions cost them almost $20,000 in cash prize deductions. However, they each received a portion of the $75,000 and had an on-off relationship, which included an engagement, before calling it quits in 2021.

In 2023, he appeared in season 32 of “Dancing With the Stars” alongside dance partner Rylee Arnold. Rumors began to swirl that the two were dating and while they neither confirmed nor denied it, they admitted they just enjoy being together.
