TikTok stars Charli and Dixie D'Amelio were born to parents Marc and Heidi D'Amelio
The family starred in the Hulu reality show The D'Amelio Show, which ran for three seasons
Charli has since cut ties with her family's popcorn company following reports of a financial dispute with her parents
Influencers Charli and Dixie D'Amelio were raised by their parents, Marc and Heidi D'Amelio, in Connecticut.
After tying the knot in May 2000, the couple welcomed Dixie in August 2001 and Charli in May 2004. In June 2019, their family discovered newfound fame as a result of their younger daughter's viral TikTok video. Charli became the most-followed TikTok user in March 2020 (with over 100 million followers) and the family launched an eponymous Hulu series in September 2021, which aired for three seasons.
In May 2026, reports began circulating online alleging that Charli and her parents were in a financial dispute. A few days later, PEOPLE confirmed that Charli had cut ties with the family's popcorn brand, Be Happy Snacks.
Marc responded to the reports in the comments of a DeuxMoi post, which claimed that Charli had discovered that millions of dollars had been transferred out of accounts that were set up during a time in which her career was managed by her parents. Marc later told PEOPLE, "There is nothing to say except the report is 100% not true."
While on a subsequent TikTok Live, Marc said that he, Charli and Heidi had not been in contact for a long time.
Here's everything to know about Charli and Dixie D'Amelio's parents, Marc and Heidi D'Amelio.

Prior to becoming a mom, Heidi was a personal trainer and model. She met her husband Marc — a then-salesman for the sportswear company Mitchell & Ness — in a New York City gym in 1997.
As the mother of two social media stars, it's no surprise that Heidi maintains a strong online presence as well. In addition to entertaining her TikTok followers with her day-to-day Hollywood happenings, she also shares her life on Instagram.

Charli once credited her mom for teaching her "everything that I know, from learning how to be confident with myself to figuring out my style and what I love about myself."
In 2022, Heidi and Charli made history as the first mother-daughter duo to join the cast of Dancing With the Stars on the show's 31st season. Charli and her partner, Mark Ballas, won the competition.

Much like his family, Marc has racked up an impressive social media following.
With over 30 years of business experience — much of which includes working in the apparel industry — Marc launched the eponymous company D'Amelio Brands in September 2022, where he serves as a co-founder.

The company's goal "is to create authentic and accessible products across a variety of industries, from fashion and beauty to CPG and lifestyle," per the company's press release.
"After years of working with other brands on deals and partnerships, we have an innate knowledge of what consumers are looking for as well as the ability to identify voids in the marketplace," Marc said in a statement.
After DeuxMoi claimed in May 2026 that millions of dollars had allegedly been transferred out of Charli's bank account during the time she was being managed by her parents, Marc denied the allegations in a comment left on the post.
"No one called me for an interview," he wrote. "This is not true. We love Charli but she is being manipulated and I have the receipts. Over the last six years we have remained silent and never addressed gossip but the time has come to set the record straight."
