March 2024 · 3 minute read

As the seventh season of “I Am Jazz” graces our TLC screens, fans of the show have found themselves pondering a curious question: Why do Jazz Jennings’ grandmother Jacky’s eyes often appear crossed? In this article, we aim to unravel the mystery behind her condition and explore whether it has always been a part of her life.

Jacky’s Appearance on “I Am Jazz”

“I Am Jazz” provides viewers with an intimate look into Jazz Jennings’ life and her incredible journey as a transgender woman. Throughout the series, Jazz’s loving grandmother, Jacky, has made frequent appearances. However, keen-eyed fans have recently noticed that her eyes seem to be consistently crossed.

The Speculations Surrounding Jacky’s Crossed Eyes

Rumors have circulated regarding the cause of Jacky Jennings’ crossed eyes. Some suggest that multiple cosmetic surgeries may have contributed to this condition by tightening the skin around her eyes excessively. While this remains unverified, it is more plausible that Jacky has a pre-existing medical condition that leads to her crossed eyes.

Exploring the Possibilities

Jacky herself has not publicly discussed the origin of her crossed eyes. One potential explanation is a condition called strabismus, in which the eyes fail to align properly. The recent attention to her eyes intensified when she expressed uncertainty about where to direct her gaze during the Season 7 premiere of “I Am Jazz.”

It’s worth noting that Botox injections, if administered too closely to the orbital rim, can lead to crossed eyes. Therefore, it’s conceivable that plastic surgery might have played a role in her eye condition.

Jacky’s Eye Appearance Over Time

Observing Jacky’s appearances on “I Am Jazz,” it becomes apparent that her eyes had a slightly crossed appearance during Season 1. However, the condition appears to have become more noticeable in recent episodes. The question of whether she was born with crossed eyes or developed the condition over time remains unanswered.

Interestingly, a photograph from 2018 shows Jacky wearing glasses, and in that image, her eyes do not appear crossed. This adds to the intrigue surrounding the cause of her crossed eyes.

Jacky’s Plastic Surgery Journey

Jacky is believed to have undergone a facelift, which some viewers speculate may have been pulled too tightly around her ears, potentially contributing to her crossed-eye appearance. She began seeking plastic surgery enhancements after turning 50, and over time, some fans have drawn comparisons between her and politician Nancy Pelosi in terms of their looks.

It’s worth noting that Jazz Jennings’ mother has also considered a facelift in the past, a decision her family supported. The Jennings family seems open to and accepting of plastic surgery procedures.

In addition to these cosmetic surgeries, Jacky has shared that their family has a history of experiencing issues with wrinkling necks, highlighting a shared interest in maintaining their appearance.

Conclusion: The Enigma Persists

The mystery surrounding Jacky’s crossed eyes endures, with no official confirmation or statement from her about its cause. As fans of “I Am Jazz,” we continue to appreciate the love and support the Jennings family provides to Jazz and one another, regardless of the physical attributes that make each of them unique. Jacky’s presence on the show remains a cherished part of the family’s journey, and her story reminds us that beauty and strength come in many forms.
