Over the years, now-52-year-old Jo encountered many children who simply wouldn’t behave for their parents.

Have they changed their naughty ways? Daily Star has looked at where the families and troublesome kids are up to now, from TikTok fame to a horrific crime.

The Amouri Family

In the final episode of season 3 of Supernanny US, Jo visited the Amouri Family in Michigan.

She aimed to help struggling parents Tamara and Michael with their four children, Hailey, four, twins Jianni and Julian, two and one-year-old Ashton.

Hailey was a particular problem, constantly stubborn and bossy towards her parents while also sneaking out of the house and run out on the street with her siblings while unsupervised.

Hailey recently shared a video on her TikTok page and it seems she has finally grown out of her bad behaviour after labelling herself “a good kid”.

The video, which featured a montage including a clip from the episode she featured on with her family in 2007, was captioned: “To the British lady that turned me into a good kid.”

The child star, now 20, is vocal about her religion on TikTok and regularly attends youth groups as a practising Christian.

The Cooke Family

During series two of Supernanny UK, Jo headed to Hertfordshire and met the Cooke Family made up of five members.

Paul and Denise are parents to three girls, Meghann, nine, Gabriella, six and four-year-old Erin.

Their three daughters were bright and creative, however it was Meghann’s relationship with her mum that caused particular strain.

Little Meghann regularly had screaming matches with Jo and even “climbed onto a table” to hit her in the face.

Meghann, now 26, is a single mum to her four-year-old son, Ruari.

She shared her experiences on Supernanny on her TikTok and despite speaking cheerfully about it, she admitted her family faced a lot of hate on social media.

“I can’t speak for everybody who’s been on the show, but I don’t think Jo really changed us,” she explained.

Meghann added: “I think over a few years after Jo had visited, we grew up and the dynamics changed in our family – and that’s made us behave better.”

The Young Family

Jo had her work cut out when she met Paul and Susan Young and their five sons in 2005.

After the episode aired, the boys’ behaviour got even worse and two years later, they were accused of starting a fire.

In 2007, it was alleged that youngest sibling Joel, who was only three at the time, started a fire with a kitchen lighter.

Their house had sustained such bad damage that the family had to live in a hotel, until they could afford somewhere else to stay.

But it was Jacob who made headlines more than a decade later after he was arrested and sentenced to 10 years in a young offenders institution for rape and theft.

Jacob, who was 18 at the time of his arrest, reportedly strangled his victim in her own home until she was almost unconscious, Ipswich Crown Court heard.

According to the BBC, the judge said the teenager had “extreme form of sexual curiosity or unhealthy fantasy”.

He denied his charges of rape, committing actual bodily harm and theft, however was found guilty by a jury.

He also had a previous conviction for threatening a 12-year-old girl with a knife when he was 14.

The Bruno Family

The Bruno family appeared on season 3 of Supernanny US and brought Jo out to Trinity, Florida to meet parents John and Denise.

Mariah was born with Cerebral Palsy and wasn’t expected to live long after birth, while Taylor’s relationship with her father was strained due to his disapproval of her punk goth-like style.

While youngsters Bella and Sam often aggressively lashed out at their mum.

Now, Mariah is in a happy relationship and regularly posts loved up snaps of the pair on Facebook.

Taylor was arrested in 2016 for battery on a firefighter, however it seems she has turned her life around and is in a happy since 2021.

At the age of 16, Bella gave birth to a son named Elijah.

The Minyon Family

Season two of Supernanny US kicked off with a bang when Jo went to Georgia and met the Minyon family.

Danielle and Frank are parents to Patrick Frank but had particular issues with their daughter, Skyler, who often threw violent temper tantrums consisting of kicking, screaming and crying.

Also known as Princess Skyler, the youngster would even hit her mum if she didn’t get her way.

After the episode aired, Danielle gave birth to the couple’s third child, Alexis.

Years later, Frank and Danielle got divorced and she remarried a man named Cary Darden.
