Jonathan Cheban was born on February 21, 1974, in Fort Lee, New Jersey, to Russian-Jewish parents. He is the only child of Mikhail, a diamond dealer, and a mother who worked in real estate. Cheban earned a degree in Communications from Hofstra University. Known to be quiet and studious during his school years, his academic grounding laid the foundation for a career in media and public relations.
Cheban's professional journey began when he took a position with esteemed publicist Peggy Siegal. After gaining experience, he established his own public relations firm, Command PR, where he served as CEO. In 2010, his partner Simon Huck acquired a majority stake in the company. Although Cheban stepped back from daily operations, he has continued to be associated with the firm as a consultant.
A longtime associate of the Kardashian family, Cheban has capitalized on his celebrity connections. He founded TheDishh.com, a celebrity-focused gossip and lifestyle site. Jonathan also partnered with EliteDaily.com during its early growth period, increasing his influence in the digital media space.
Cheban gained public recognition largely through his close friendship with Kim Kardashian. The two have appeared together in multiple Kardashian-related reality series, including Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kourtney and Kim Take Miami, and Kourtney and Kim Take New York. In 2010, he starred in his own reality show, The Spin Crowd, produced by Kim Kardashian. The show, which aimed to depict the behind-the-scenes world of media and publicity, was canceled after one season due to low ratings.
Jonathan Cheban is well known in the entertainment community not only for his media ventures but also for his visible social life. He dated stylist Anat Popovsky, whom he met while filming Kourtney and Kim Take Miami in 2012. The couple split in 2014.
In 2013, Cheban appeared on Bravo’s Millionaire Matchmaker to find someone who could keep up with his high-paced lifestyle. During the episode, he selected Jen, a forensic psychology graduate, for a date. However, the relationship did not develop further.
Cheban’s close friendship with Kim Kardashian led to public speculation about his sexual orientation, which was playfully addressed on reality television. In an episode of Kourtney and Kim Take New York, Kim attempted to determine Cheban’s orientation by teasing him, leading to a widely discussed scene. Later appearances, such as his participation in Millionaire Matchmaker, further emphasized his interest in dating women, putting rumors to rest.
Standing 5 feet 10 inches tall, Cheban has undergone various personal grooming and wellness procedures. In 2010, he tried CoolSculpting, a cosmetic treatment to reduce belly fat. Although he wasn’t significantly overweight, he opted for the procedure to maintain a toned appearance, likely influenced by being in the spotlight alongside the Kardashian family.
Beyond media and television, Cheban has ventured into fashion and dining. He launched a clothing line known as Kritik and has designed jewelry for RitchRocks. A known food enthusiast, Cheban owns Sushi MiKasa, a sushi restaurant in Miami, and the fast-casual Burger Bandit in Lynbrook, Long Island. He humorously refers to himself as the "Kanye West of food" due to his passion and flair for gourmet experiences.
