Maxine Sneed Age: Know Her Husband, Height, Career & More
Tommy Chong is a famous Canadian-American actor, filmmaker, singer, writer, comedian, and advocate for cannabis rights. Maxine Sneed was the editor of “Black Radio Magazine” before she became famous as Tommy’s ex-wife. The public’s attention focused on Maxine more for her relationship with Chong than on her career achievements. After marrying the famous actor, she shot to stardom.
Sneed Maxine’s Age
Her biography suggests that she was born around the middle of the 1940s, on September 23rd. Not much is known about her childhood, especially her birthdate, which is also up for debate. Her life has been shrouded in secrecy and mystery since the beginning, making even her family tree and academic background difficult to piece together.
Everyone assumes she is a Canadian citizen with dual US citizenship, but no one knows for sure where she came from. There is no confirmation or denial of the information by her, even though all of these rumors are in the public domain. Regarding her private life, it is worth mentioning that she is not known to have any social networks.
Career
The magazine “Black Radio Magazine” was edited by Maxine Sneed. It is unclear, however, how long she was associated with the magazine. Aside from her time at “Black Radio Magazine,” little is known about her career. Based on what we know so far, Maxine has either been an editor for a corporate house or a proofreader for some of those same companies.
She became famous after her 1960 Canadian wedding to Tommy Chong, a famous Canadian-American actor, singer, and cannabis rights campaigner. Rumor has it that Tommy’s affair with an underage woman named Gail Toulson was the catalyst for the couple’s first child, Rae Dawn Chong. Tommy eventually prevailed in a custody dispute and was able to raise the child with Maxine. Even though Rae was born on February 28, 1961, she didn’t find out who her biological mother was until she was twelve years old.
But Rae never let the drama of her birth or her parents’ custody get to her, and she has always said that Tommy and Maxine did a great job parenting Robbi and her sister. In the acting profession, Rae has followed in her father’s footsteps and is renowned for her roles in ‘Quest for Fire,’ ‘Time Runner,’ ‘Commando,’ ‘The Color Purple,’ and ‘Beat Street.’ May 28, 1965, was the birthday of Robbi Lynn Chong, Maxine’s sole biological child and the second daughter she had with Tommy. Actress Robbi has also worked as a model.
Tommy and Maxine broke up in 1970. According to insiders, Tommy’s adultery was the catalyst for the split. Reportedly, Maxine has stayed single after the divorce and would rather keep her personal life out of the spotlight. The American actress, comedian, and producer Shelby Fiddis was Tommy’s bride in 1975 when they tied the knot in Los Angeles. He is the biological father of Precious, a daughter, and two sons, Paris and Gilbran, from his relationship with Shelby. Marcus Chong is the name of his adopted son.
Family
Beyond the fact that she is of Black Canadian and Cherokee origin, very little is known of her parents, siblings, early life, or education. According to some reports, she is a dual citizen of the United States and Canada. Morgan is her grandchild from her relationship with Rae. Maxine does not participate in the online communities hosted by sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. After her divorce, she stopped interacting with the press.
