There’s a need to mention the names of his celebrity stepsiblings before one can recognize Jake Olsen.
After one hears that his siblings are three famous Hollywood actresses, then comes the oh-I-see-so-that’s-him kind of line.
In 2014, the former actresses - now fashion designers and business moguls - Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen promoted their perfume at the now defunct The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
Created for women, the famous Olsen twins called the fragrance Elizabeth and James Nirvana. Those names belong to their younger and older siblings, respectively.
Elizabeth Olsen, of course, is Wanda Maximoff, aka the Scarlet Witch, for Marvel fans, moviegoers, and the general public.
Now who is this Jake Olsen? Why carry the same surname? Is he a celebrity, too?

Jake Olsen Biography
Jacob “Jake” T. Olsen was born in 1998 in the U.S.
His parents are David Brian Olsen (born November 15, 1951) and Martha E. Taylor (born July 10, 1959). They got married on March 10, 1996 but divorced in 2014.
Several entertainment sites would identify his mother as “McKenzie Olsen.” Is it because “McKenzie” is Martha’s nickname?
His father worked as a mortgage banker and as a real estate developer. David and Martha once belonged in the same company, where she worked as his secretary.
Jake Olsen has an older sister named Courtney Scarlett (born May 10, 1997), who turned 25 this year.
David’s marriage to Martha was his second one. His first wife was Jarnette J. Fuller (born February 22, 1954).
A former ballet dancer, Jarnette married David on August 6, 1977 and divorced him in 1995. They have four children.
The stepsiblings of Courtney Scarlett and Jake Olsen are:
- comic book writer (Storm King Comics) James Trent (born May 22, 1984)
- the twins and retired actresses Ashley and Mary-Kate (born June 13, 1986)
- actress Elizabeth Chase (born February 16, 1989), aka Elizabeth Olsen (screen name)
The public must not confuse Jake Olsen with Jake Olson (that’s clearly “Olson” with two “o’s” and not “Olsen”).
Olson is a Canadian football player, who plays for the University of Montana Grizzlies as tight end.
Unfortunately, many websites indicate Jake Olsen as Olson by saying that he is a football player. In addition, such sites would even state Olson’s birthday (February 19, 1989) and birthplace (Hartford, Wisconsin) as his.
