A renowned Hollywood actor and father of three has experienced the ups and downs of life, including a divorce. However, it’s his dashing looks that have everyone on the internet buzzing.
The celebrity is best known for his roles on “General Hospital” and “Melrose Place.” But his talents don’t stop there—he’s also pursued a career in music, establishing himself as a singer alongside his successful acting roles.
Throughout his career, this ’90s heartthrob has faced life’s challenges, from personal loss to a difficult divorce. Here’s a look at the evolution of this blue-eyed, blond-haired Hollywood star over the years.
In images from this period, “The Bold and the Beautiful” alum had a clean-cut look with neatly styled dark hair. He wore a simple black T-shirt in one photo.
For the next picture, the veteran actor sported a casual gray sweatshirt with jeans paired with blue shoes, embodying a classic ’80s style.
Moving into 1984, in one photo from July, he wore a light-colored, striped button-up shirt, his hair casually swept to the side as he sat in a thoughtful pose.
By September, the public figure embraced a more polished look, donning a patterned blazer, white shirt, and slim black tie. His expression reflected the confident charisma he became known for.
Fast forward to 1987, and his passion for music took center stage. He once performed live, wearing a sleeveless shirt as he strummed his guitar and sang into the microphone.
By the time 1990 rolled around, his style had taken on a more relaxed, yet mature look. In one portrait, he sported a light denim button-up shirt, casually open at the collar, and his hair styled with a natural, effortless wave.
The celebrity later appeared with his signature tousled hair and piercing blue eyes, wearing a vibrant blue shirt. This was also a period when he and his now-ex-wife, went public with their relationship when she fell pregnant with the couple’s first child, Peter, in 1990 and they welcomed him later that year.
By 1995, the singer was seen at a “Melrose Place” celebration, casually dressed in a light beige sweater and jeans as he mingled with fellow cast members. During this period, his second son, Harrison, came into the world. It was also a time when his marriage to an actress faced its own set of challenges.
By February 1996, the public figure appeared on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” wearing a casual yet stylish dark jacket over a beige shirt, and had his hair neatly trimmed.
As the new millennium arrived, his style evolved once more. In 2000, at the 54th Annual Tony Awards, he sported a sophisticated look with a tuxedo, a bow tie, and tinted glasses, paired with a neatly trimmed beard.
As 2004 unfolded, the television star continued to showcase his versatility and charm. In January, he was seen with a casual, yet artistic vibe, holding a guitar and wearing a relaxed purple sweater.
By February, the Hollywood public figure embraced a bolder, edgier look, sporting a black leather jacket and jeans at a pre-Oscar party.
Then, in July, the veteran stepped out in classic elegance, donning a sleek tuxedo while attending an event in Monte Carlo with a guest, exuding timeless sophistication.
By March 2005, he attended a movie premiere with his hair styled in a natural, swept-back manner, wearing a casual yet polished black shirt.
As 2006 progressed, his style showcased both his playful side and classic coolness as he rocked a casual yet edgy look with a black leather jacket and tinted glasses in March.
By April, at the Daytime Emmy Awards, the actor displayed a more light-hearted vibe, seen in a striped blazer as he playfully interacted with fans and posed with various props.
As the summer of 2006 unfolded, his family moments came into the spotlight. In May, he attended the NRDC’s Day of Discovery, posing happily with his family.
By July, he embraced his sporty side, seen at the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship in a vibrant red polo shirt, proudly standing alongside his loved ones on the golf course. This period also marked a time when the Hollywood star and the mother of his two sons finalized their divorce after rekindling their romance years prior.
By June 2008, the actor’s look had taken on a more vibrant edge. At the 35th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards, his face showed a few lines of maturity.
In 2009, the celebrity’s appearances highlighted both his elegance and relaxed demeanor. In May, he attended a charity event alongside fellow stars, wearing a crisp white shirt paired with brown pants.
By October, he embraced a more casual vibe, enjoying a Lakers game in a relaxed white button-down shirt, while sitting next to his former fiancée, Heather Locklear.
As we move into the summer of 2020, Jack shared a light-hearted post from quarantine, reflecting his humorous side. Despite the casual look, social media users couldn’t help but comment on how he remains the most attractive years after his stint on “Melrose Place.”
“Looking great,” wrote one user. Another added, “No matter how you look like in the morning, you will always be the most handsome men [sic] on earth.” Someone else shared a similar view, “Best looking man on the planet!” More praises from his followers flooded the comments section with some writing, “Sexy, bedhead,” “Such a handsome guy,” and “[…] You are the best like Bill Avery.”
Fast forward to May 2021, Jack shared a cheerful group selfie with the cast of “Wedding March 6,” capturing the joyous camaraderie on set.
By early 2022, Jack continued to embrace moments with loved ones as he shared a heartwarming photo of himself with his 101-year-old mother, who looked vibrant in a pink hoodie.
The celebrity admitted in an April 2024 interview, “I’m able to let go of things I used to attach to, obsess about and that disturbed me. […] That’s what age has given me.”
In addition to being a father of two sons, the 65-year-old also discovered he had a long-lost daughter, Kerry Wagner, in 2011, which he described as a “real blessing.” Kerry was the result of a one-night stand in the late 1980s, and her mother had made the difficult decision to put her up for adoption.
Though Jack, whose recent project is “When Calls the Heart,” had learned of Kerry’s birth in 1998, circumstances prevented him from being part of her life.
Jack Wagner’s life has been filled with moments of both joy and heartache. Despite the challenges, he continues to cherish the bonds he shares with his children, embracing every unexpected turn life brings.
