Early life and background

Amy Louise Jackson was born on 31 January 1991 on the Isle of Man and grew up in Liverpool, England. She attended St. Edward’s College in Liverpool and completed sixth form level education. Jackson’s family includes her father Alan Jackson, who worked in radio production, her mother Marguerita Jackson who trained in horse riding, and an older sister, Alicia. She is British by nationality and was raised in a Christian home.

Career

Jackson began in the public eye through beauty pageants as a teenager, winning regional and national teen titles. That exposure led to an opportunity in Indian cinema: director A.L. Vijay cast her in the 2010 period drama Madrasapattinam, which marked her film debut. Over time she established herself as an actress and model, working primarily in films and gaining notice for roles that required new skills; for example, she learned martial arts for a later action-comedy role.

Public profile

Known for her height and modeling background, Jackson’s listed physical statistics include a height of approximately 170 cm (5'7") and a listed weight around 52 kg. Her eye color is described as hazel blue and her hair as black. She has spoken and shown support for animal welfare causes and is reported to have a pet cat named Alfie. She follows English football closely and is a supporter of Liverpool FC.

Her personal life has received media attention. Jackson has had several public relationships over the years. She became engaged for a first time on 1 January 2019 and later became engaged again on 29 January 2024. She married actor Ed Westwick on 9 August 2024 at The Connaught Hotel in London. The couple are parents to two sons, named Andreas and Oscar Alexander Westwick (the latter reported as born on 24 March 2025).

Jackson’s tastes include a fondness for chocolate and a number of favorite films and performers she has cited, including Titanic and actors such as Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. Her listed cuisine preferences include a variety of Indian and international dishes and several favorite restaurants in London and Mumbai.

Latest updates

In recent years Jackson has been open about transformations undertaken for work. A change in her appearance for a United Kingdom project in 2023 prompted online discussion, and she responded in interviews to explain that the look was part of a role. The incident highlighted how public reactions to actors’ transformations can differ.

She continues to be associated with both modelling and acting projects; her debut film Madrasapattinam remains a noted milestone in her career.
