Now, they say that ‘success loves company.’ The same principle appears to apply with fame, as is evidenced by Jim Jeffries’ marriage to a celebrity. Here’s everything you need to know about Jeffries’ wife.
Who Is Jim Jeffries’ Wife?
Jim Jeffries is married to Anastasia Katya Breezy Dhanraj, who’s more famously known as Tasie Lawrence.
Tasie Lawrence is an English singer-songwriter cum actress who hails from Brighton, England. The once lesser-known actress has become a subject of major media coverage in the recent past for her association with Jeffries.

Lawrence’s parents are Deren Dhanraj and Rebecca Sinnatt. She has one known biological sibling, a sister named Tasha Dhanraj.
There’s little information on Tasie Lawrence’s early education. However, she studied music at the Guilford-based Academy of Contemporary Music, eventually graduating from the institution with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music.
Tasie Lawrence’s Career and Professional Life
After graduating from the Academy of Contemporary Music, Tasie Lawrence inked a record deal with Island Records.
Lawrence launched her music career by becoming a member of a dark pop rock band known as the WooWoos. She garnered initial recognition for her role in the band before deciding to branch off into acting. Her decision to leave the WooWoos was confirmed through her Twitter account.
Tasie Lawrence began acting seriously after leaving music. She portrayed Mara Jaffray in ‘House of Anubis,’ a popular British/American/Belgian teen drama mystery television series that aired on Nickelodeon.

What Is Tasie Lawrence’s Claim to Fame?
Tasie Lawrence is a singer, songwriter, and actress…..all rolled into one. She could easily be described as a multi-talented artist.
However, it’s worth noting that Lawrence’s rise to fame wasn’t exclusively due to her singing and acting talents. In fact, her musical accomplishments are yet to hit the headlines. The same goes for most of her film credits.
Instead, Tasie’s fame is largely due to her association with one of the world’s most successful comedians.
