As a documentary series that once again brings the life and career of Jake Paul into the limelight, Netflix’s ‘Countdown: Paul v. Tyson can be described as a continuation of ‘Untold: Jake Paul: The Problem Child.’ After all, it shines a light upon not just his early years, his stardom, as well as his pivot into the world of boxing but also his recent professional endeavors in an effort to prove his mettle. Therefore, of course, there is intrigue surrounding his parents too, especially his mother, Pamela “Pam” Anne Stepnick, with whom he reportedly shares an incredibly close bond.
Pam Stepnick Always Shared a Close Bond With Her Children
Although born on July 27, 1963, as a native of Lake Wood, Ohio, who later went on to pursue a career as a registered nurse, Pam was always a dedicated family woman. She actually graduated from Ursuline College before evolving into a critical care medical professional, all the while also building a family alongside Gregory “Greg” Allen Paul. They actually welcomed Logan on April 1, 1995, followed by Jake roughly two years later on January 17, 1997, before doing their best to raise them in their homeland.
However, according to the brothers, Pam and Greg’s parenting style was very different because while their father was so strict it was along the lines of abuse, their mother had a loving disposition. It thus comes as no surprise they split while the brothers were still young, only for the former to have since moved on in a way that reportedly didn’t sit too well with Greg. After all, as per Logan on his podcast, when it came time for Pam to tie the knot with her now-husband David Stepnick in 2004, he had asked him to object to their union, which thankfully he never did as he saw how happy she was.
Pam Stepnick is Still a Dedicated Family Woman
While Pam’s first marriage didn’t pan out in the way she hoped, her second with David is seemingly going extremely well — in fact, on October 15, 2024, they even celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary. As if that’s not enough, she continues to be wholly dedicated to her sons and stands by all their career choices by showing up for almost every match and every event. The truth is this registered nurse gave up her career in the medical field when her son’s career began taking off so as to offer them support full-time, only to then evolve into an internet personality herself for a while.
Pamela actually established a YouTube channel by the name of VlogMom in 2016, where she gave her fans – whom she lovingly referred to as Pamily or Pamsters – a glimpse into her family’s daily lives with casual vlogs, challenges, and pranks for over a year. This platform of hers has unfortunately been active since 2017, but her other social media platforms are proof that she hasn’t stopped supporting her children- in fact, she will admittedly do anything for them. For example, despite being a resident of Cleaveland, Ohio, to this day, she not only made it to Texas for Jake’s fight with Mike Perry in June 2024 after his bout with Mike Tyson got postponed, but she was also there for Longan and his partner’s baby shower in September. As if that’s not enough, it appears as if she will also be there for Jake vs Mike Tyson on November 15 in Texas again.
Pam Stepnick Has Many Varied Interests
While Pam did spend the majority of her life serving as a registered nurse and caring for those who are not able to take care of themselves, she has since moved on from it to pursue her own endeavors. It actually appears as if this animal lover and dog mom retired for a slower life to prioritize herself, her experiences, as well as her personal relationships, which is understandable considering the years and long hours she always gave to her job when she was a nurse. So now, it appears as if Pam is primarily focusing on her marriage with David, her connection with her siblings, being there for her sons, and traveling the world to explore new things. In fact, over the past decade, she has been to Aruba, Costa Rica, and some beautiful places in Europe, as well as several spots in the country like Aspen, Maui, as well as Kentucky for the Kentucky Derby.
