Hey guys, what’s up.
Welcome back to Film Read.
And today,
we’ll be diving into Danielle Colby’s private life
and uncovering some hidden facts.
But before we begin,
tell us about your favorite reality TV show
in the comments below.
Danielle Colby was born on December 3rd of 1975
in Davenport, Iowa.
Her single mother, Sue,
was the one who raised her
along with her sister.
What’s tragic
is that Danielle revealed to the media
that she was sexually abused by an older man
at a young age.
She did not disclose
the identity of that sick person.
Danielle was brought up as a Jehovah’s Witness,
but with time,
she left those beliefs behind,
which caused a dent in her relationship with her family.

Danielle Colby is also a professional
and passionate burlesque dancer.
The flames of this passion
were first kindled in her heart
when she attended a burlesque performance
starring the comedian Margaret Cho
and dancer Angel Cecilia Helene Walker,
also known as Satan’s Angel.
She went on to pursue her passion
and become a burlesque dancer herself.
She set up her own professional burlesque dancing troupe
back in Iowa.
She called it
Burlesque Le Moustache.
It had nine dancers,
including Danielle herself.
She chose for herself
the stage name Danielle Diesel.
She performed in numerous shows as Danielle Diesel
and toured eastern Iowa
and western Illinois with her troupe.
She did not want to keep
the art of burlesque dancing to herself.
To pass it on to others,
she established Danielle Diesel’s Bump and Grind Academy
in Chicago’s Rogers Park neighborhood.
Danielle is a fun personality
who loves to try different activities.
She didn’t stop there
and became a part of a female roller derby team
called Big Mouth Mickies.
However,
her career did not last long,
as she had to bid farewell to the sport
due to injuries.
But her big hit came
when she starred in the super successful reality TV series
American Pickers.
She had been friends with Mike Wolfe
almost a decade
before Wolfe pitched the idea for the show
to the History Channel.
They accepted it.
Mike offered Danielle
the role of manager
at his shop, Antique Archaeology.
She worked behind the scenes,
managed the shop,
and gave leads about possible locations
with valuable items
to the show’s two main stars,
Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz.
The show follows the two co-hosts
as they travel around America
and discover hidden treasures
and antique items
that they later sell in their shops
or keep for their personal collections.
Even though Danielle’s role
was not that prominent,
it made her career take off.
She became known to the world
as American Pickers reached new heights
and became the top-rated non-fiction series of the year
when it first premiered.
However,
her success came at a huge cost.
It drove rifts
between her and her husband,
the father of her two children,
whom she had been married to since 2014.
He was not okay
with how much time she was spending away from home
and growing her fame.
Eventually,
they separated.
She founded her own retro clothing brand
called Four Miles to Memphis.
She acquired the services
of Alexander De Meyer,
a French artist and graphic designer.
But guess what.
She ended up marrying him.
Yes,
you heard it right.
Danielle Colby married Alexander De Meyer
in 2012.
However,
this marriage was not long-lived.
She quietly filed for divorce
in 2015.
According to The Sun,
she is now engaged
to her longtime boyfriend,
Jeremy Scheuch.
She announced her engagement
in an Instagram post,
saying,
“I did a thing.
Almost six long years,
I finally made an honest man out of my king.”
She added that she actually proposed to him
on her birthday
while they were filming
her birthday burlesque show.
Danielle is now
a very active social media personality.
She has over
232 thousand followers on Instagram,
where she posts regularly.
Her Facebook audience
exceeds six hundred thousand.
Her Twitter follower count
is almost a hundred thousand.
She is worth approximately
1.5 million dollars
as of August of 2021.
