Megan BullCarey Salley is a former American model best known for her relationship with Emilio Estevez and for being the mother of his two children. Although she briefly worked in modeling and acting, she has spent most of her life away from the public spotlight.
Carey is an American former fashion model who became publicly known during the 1980s. She worked in the modeling industry and later received media attention because of her relationship with actor Emilio Estevez. Unlike many people connected to Hollywood, Salley has chosen to keep her personal life private.
Her name is frequently searched by people looking for information about Emilio Estevez’s family, children, and former relationships. However, verified public information about her own life remains limited.
Family Background
Very little verified information has been released about Carey’s early life. Reliable public sources have not confirmed her date of birth, birthplace, parents, siblings, or childhood.
Similarly, there are no publicly verified records describing her education or the schools she attended. Because Salley has rarely spoken to the media, these details remain private.
This lack of public information is common for individuals who were not career celebrities and chose not to remain in the entertainment industry.
Modeling Career
Carey Salley began her professional career as a fashion model during the 1980s.
She was represented by Wilhelmina Models, one of the best-known modeling agencies in the United States. Founded by Dutch model Wilhelmina Cooper, the agency has represented thousands of professional models over several decades.
Although Salley worked professionally as a model, there are few publicly available records documenting specific advertising campaigns or magazine appearances. Her modeling career remained relatively private compared to many other fashion models of the era.
Brief Acting Career
Besides modeling, Carey has one publicly documented acting credit.
She appeared in the 1989 film 11 Days, 11 Nights: Part 3, an Italian-produced drama directed by Joe D’Amato. Her role was minor, and no additional verified acting projects have been reported after this appearance.
Her acting career was short, and she did not continue working regularly in film or television.
Relationship With Emilio Estevez
Carey is most widely recognized because of her relationship with actor and filmmaker Emilio Estevez.
Estevez became famous during the 1980s after starring in films such as The Breakfast Club, St. Elmo’s Fire, and Young Guns. He was also part of the group of young actors known as the Brat Pack.
Salley and Estevez dated during the early and mid-1980s. Although they never married, their relationship attracted media attention because Estevez’s acting career was rapidly growing.
At the time, Estevez was one of Hollywood’s most recognizable young actors and the son of actor Martin Sheen.
The Paternity Case
One of the most widely reported events involving Carey occurred in 1986.
Salley filed a paternity lawsuit involving Emilio Estevez. The legal dispute received significant coverage from entertainment news because Estevez was already an established film star.
The case was later resolved, and Estevez publicly acknowledged that he was the father of Salley’s two children.
This legal matter became one of the few occasions when Carey Salley received widespread media coverage.
Carey and Emilio Estevez have two children together.
Taylor Levi Estevez
Taylor Levi Estevez was born in June 1984.
Unlike many members of the Estevez family, Taylor has mostly worked behind the camera instead of becoming a full-time actor.
He has contributed to film productions and has occasionally appeared at family-related public events.
Paloma Rae Estevez
Paloma Rae Estevez was born in February 1986.
She chose a different career path and became involved in music. Public information indicates that she has worked as a professional drummer and musician.
Like her mother, Paloma has generally avoided extensive media attention.
Marriage and Relationships
No verified public records indicate that Carey has ever married.
After her relationship with Emilio Estevez ended, she stayed away from public attention.
There are also no confirmed reports of later marriages or long-term relationships. Reliable sources have not identified another public partner.
These searches continue because Emilio Estevez remains a well-known figure in American entertainment.
