The members of the “Bling Ring” in their mugshots.
Alexis Neiers is a mom of two kids who doesn’t have time to watch movies about herself, she told Entertainment Weekly. Once known as a member of the Bling Ring, she is now known as Alexis Christine Haines.
Haines, 31, was married to Canadian businessman Evan Haines, but she recently announced they were divorcing after 10 years of marriage, according to Us Weekly. They have two daughters, Harper and Dakota.
She became famous, in part, for her role among a group of teens and young adults who burglarized celebrities in Los Angeles between 2008 and 2009, stealing roughly $3 million in cash and belongings from Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Orlando Bloom, Megan Fox and others. Neiers downplayed her role on the new Netflix documentary, “The Real Bling Ring: Hollywood Heist.” She confessed only to being a participant in the burglary of Bloom’s property, but she maintained she remembered only bits and pieces of the night due to past drug abuse and that she did not know whose house it was.
The three-part, limited series was released on Netflix September 21, 2022.

Neiers & Haines Announced They Were Divorcing in August 2022
Just weeks before the Netflix series dropped, Neiers and Haines announced that they were divorcing after 10 years of marriage, according to a statement published by Us Weekly. She presented the divorce as amicable.
“Ten years of marriage and 11 years together was [a] great success and we are coparenting really well,” she said in the statement, according to Us Weekly. “I don’t think either of us wanted to get divorced or to separate, but it’s just the way that things ended up transpiring. Again, I love Evan very much and we are just maybe better coparents than partners.”
Neiers was arrested in 2010 and entered a no contest plea to residential burglary, according to the show. She was sentenced to 180 days in jail, but she was released after spending only 30 days behind bars. She was also given three years’ probation and ordered to pay $600,000 in restitution to Bloom.
