Nevertheless, Jenna ceased to pay the mortgage even though she was notified about the payments, which were about $57,000.

Jameson had put the house for sale at $1.9 million but failed to book a buyer.

So, because she was unable to sell the property, Jameson continued to default on the mortgage to the bank.

House in Huntington Beach

Jenna and her then-boyfriend Tito Ortiz purchased this waterfront mansion in 2008. The house featured 3,889 square feet of living space and four bedrooms. They purchased the property for $3.39 million.

Cars

Reportedly, Jenna has a sleek-looking Maserati Quattroporte S, which she has leased. She signed a lease agreement stating to pay $2,299 every month, which obviously she failed to pay.

So the Maserati financial services sued the pornstar not only for the car but $107,000 in damages.

Besides that, Jenna has owned numerous luxury wheels over the years.

For instance, she had a Lamborghini Murcielago, which was late sold on eBay, Mercedes GLS.
