Jim Carrey Became a Joyful Grandpa to His Grandkid at $28M Home – As a Kid He Was Homeless & Worked as a Janitor
There’s even a custom-designed home theater where Carrey has displayed pieces from his career, such as the overalls from “The Cable Guy” and the Santa costume from “The Grinch.” He also added the Riddler costume from “Batman Forever” and his awards. The pictures online of the home feature some of the actor’s own artwork.
Carrey is a painter known for the colorful and bold pieces that decorate his home. He also made a sculpture called “Ayla” and displayed it on his lawn. Sadly, the souvenirs and his work won’t be sold with the house. Sotheby’s International Realty is in charge of the sale.
In 2017, Carrey appeared in a short documentary, “I Needed Color,” and talked about his artwork and creative process. He explained:
“When I really started painting a lot, I had become so obsessed that there was nowhere to move in my home. Paintings were everywhere. They were becoming part of the furniture; I was eating on them. […] You can tell my inner life by the darkness in some of them. You can tell what I want from the brightness in some of them.”

Jim Carrey, the Dedicated Grandfather
The actor became a grandfather in 2010 at the age of 47. His daughter, Jane, was 22 when she welcomed Jackson Riley Santana with her husband, Alex Santana. The baby boy was 7lbs, 11 ozs, and Carrey announced his birth on his now-deleted Twitter micro-blogging page. Back then, he wrote:
“Jackson Riley Santana, My Grandson, Born today! This is what 7lbs.11oz. of California dynamite looks like!”
At the time, Carrey was dating Jenny McCarthy, who called herself a grandmother, too. She took to her Twitter, thanked the pediatrician for his work, and called Jackson a “beautiful, healthy baby boy.” It’s hard to say if she is still involved with Jackson.
