Her third studio album, Blame Me, was released in May 2024 and debuted at number one in over ten countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Canada.

## Early Life

Juliet was born on November 16, 1996 in Dallas, Texas to Isabelle and Tony Vasquez. She has an older brother named Cory Vasquez. Though her parents were both Catholic, she said many times that she herself was agnostic. She later stated, however, that in December of 2023 she began to find her faith and reconnected with her Catholic upbringings.

Juliet's parents divorced shortly after her birth and both she and her brother were raised by their father in Lima, Ohio. When she was two, Juliet met John Brown, who was just a year older and lived in the same neighborhood as her. They became best friends and began taking guitar lessons together. Juliet also took gymnastics at a neighborhood center from ages 6 to 12.

Juliet attended Harding Middle School from 2008 to 2011 and was a part of the school's guitar club and soccer team. In 2011, Juliet began attending William McKinley High School, and joined the school's glee club in 2013. Through show choir, she realized her passion for performing and songwriting.

She graduated in 2015 and attended Stanford University, where she majored in creative writing and graduated in 2019. During her time in college, she sold a few songs to notable artists such as Mercedes Jones. She then moved back to Lima, where she lived for a year before founding Blackbird Records with Sebastian Smythe in 2020.

## Personal Life

### Residence

After graduating college, Juliet moved to Lima where she rented an apartment with friends Luke Walters and Albany Boynton. In October 2020, she moved in with longtime friend Alex Zimmerman, whom she lived with for a year. On her 25th birthday, Juliet received the house she grew up in as a gift from Sam Evans, who purchased it for her when he saw that it had gone up on sale. As of 2024, she lives there with her two daughters and husband Alex.

### Dating

Juliet dated Sam Evans, whom she met while they both attended McKinley, from February to March 2013. In May 2013, she briefly dated Ryder Lynn, and the two began dating again from March to August of 2014. In October of 2014, Julie began a relationship with her classmate Jake Puckerman (Jake P.) and the two dated until May 2015.

In April 2018, Julie began dating Shawn Lockwood, whom she met at Stanford, and the two got engaged in June. They ended their engagement in July, however.

In February 2021, Juliet and Alex Zimmerman were rumored to be dating and the two hinted a confirmation. In March, however, she revealed that she was dating movie producer and director, Andy Winters. In a Rolling Stone interview in July 6, 2023, Juliet revealed that both relationships were fake.

Juliet dated ex-boyfriend Ryder Lynn again from March to November 2022. She was briefly linked to musician Nick Jonas in January 2023, but both parties denied that rumor.

From April 2023 to Fall of that year, Juliet dated screenwriter, Caleb Bennett.

In April 2024, Juliet announced that she had been dating Alex Zimmerman since last December and Alex later revealed via Twitter that they were engaged since March. The two secretly got married in Bermuda on July 9, 2024.

Two years later, they divorced in Fall of 2026, after having a daughter, Rosalie Zimmerman, in April of 2025.

### Pregnancy Scandal

Juliet revealed that she was pregnant through a video posted online on August 2021. In September, Sam Evans revealed to paparazzi that he was the father and then held a small interview addressing controversy over this, due to him ending a six-year engagement with Mandy Baker just before Juliet became pregnant. He revealed that they briefly rekindled their high school romance after the wedding with Mandy fell through and that there was no infidelity involved. Mandy, however, has claimed in various interviews that she believed there was an emotional affair during her engagement to Sam but that there are no hard feelings.

Juliet gave birth to twin girls, Isabella and Gabriella, on December 16, 2021.

### Personal Struggles

After Juliet was born, her mother suffered from severe postpartum depression and was diagnosed with bipolar depression, which she seeked treatment for. She did not ever return home, however, and Juliet's father told her that her mother had died. She did not discover the truth until she was 17.

When Juliet was 13, she began to show some symptoms of bipolar disorder. She cites in a Rolling Stone interview that her behavior began to really shift in the seventh grade and that her tipping point was when she kicked a ball at a girl in her soccer team after getting very angry and even broke her nose. After this, Juliet was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, which she has been coping with since. In early 2014, Isabella returned to Juliet's life after being diagnosed with ovarian cancer. Juliet formed a relationship with her mother, who died that March.

Juliet revealed in 2023 that she had struggled with postpartum depression after having her daughters and that it was a conditioned worsened by her bipolar disorder.

### Mental Health Controversy

In February 2023, Juliet Vasquez performed on reality singing competition Starmaker, where she began to cry during a duet with a contestant on live television. When the contestant attempted to help her, she hit him and then rushed off the stage. It was later reported that Juliet had been admitted to a hospital, though it was erroneously rumored to be due to a self-medicating.

Juliet revealed in July 2023 that she had suffered from a bipolar episode and had tried to take her life by drowning in the ocean. Juliet claims to have succeeded but was revived by John Brown and Alex Zimmerman, who were there in Los Angeles to watch her Starmaker performance and had gone after her following the public breakdown. She was then admitted to The Northwest Residential Treatment Center in Indiana, where she stayed for a few weeks before recovering and checking herself out.

In August 2023, VMA after-party footage posted to Zimmerman's Snapchat showed model Francesca Duran admitting to swapping Juliet's pills while visiting her at her home. Juliet has yet to take action or speak on this.

### Starstruck Judge

On 2023, Juliet joined the Starmaker judge panel, coaching the pop acts. Her top contestant came in third place.

Juliet released a new album in 2024, which spawned multiple record-breaking number one singles. After that, she announced a short hiatus from music to focus on her family life.

### Casey Hargrove's Murder And Trial

In February 2025, Juliet's husband Alex was accused by a woman of having an affair which resulted in a lovechild. A week later, the woman, Casey Hargrove, was found murdered in her apartment and Alex was arrested. He was later tried for murder but after a few weeks was dismissed under insufficient evidence and all charges were dropped. During the trial, Juliet was seen attending court and testified as a witness.
