Jamie grew up in Camden, London, alongside three older siblings, and attended Emmanuel Primary School. At the age of only nine, he suffered a severe, life-threatening accident when he was hit by a car. Defying the small chance of survival and despite all the odds, after three days spent in coma he managed to survive. In the course of the next several years Jamie completely recovered, suffering no brain damage or any other issues. His acting career began at the age of 12, when he joined the crew of the first movie in the series about the teenage wizard – “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone”. Although he was considered for the role of Dudley Dursley, he was cast as Slytherin’s bully, Vincent Crabbe. This appearance provided the basis for Jamie Waylett’s net worth.
Over the years, Jamie reprised this role in the next five movies in the franchise, including “Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets” (2002), “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban” (2004), “Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire” (2005), “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix” (2007).

With the ending of his on-camera acting career the legal troubles appeared – in 2009 Jamie was arrested for possessing eight bags of cannabis as well as for planting marijuana in his mother’s house. After he pleaded guilty, he was penalized with 120 hours of community work. However, two years later, for participating in the 2011 England riots during which he committed several felonies including violent disorder, property damage, theft and having a Molotov cocktail, the Metropolitan Police arrested him again.
