Jaclyn Roxanne Eilers was born on July 20, 1990 to Robin and James Eilers with two older siblings Rachel and Nicholas. The Eilers family lived in Mineral, Illinois. Jaclyn’s father was a farmer and her mother was a manager. When Jaclyn was seven years old her family was struck with tragedy when her father got into a horrible car accident and had to have metal leg braces. The Eilers family found out that they couldn’t live in Illinois anymore because their fathers leg braces could not be in the cold. So the family relocated to Tampa, Florida. Jaclyn was homeschool until she got her high school diploma at the age of 16. Jaclyn has said there her dad would not let her go out often and was very strict. Jaclyn went to college for photography.
