Selling The OC’s Austin Started His Career With A Chance Encounter

Along with Newport Beach’s impressive real estate, the dramatic personal lives of the Selling The OC cast take center stage on Netflix’s hit reality series. Just ask Austin Victoria, whose marriage to his wife, Lisa Victoria, has been a source of drama since Season 1. The newly released third season, which dropped on May 3, is no different. Spoilers ahead for Selling The OC Season 3.

In previous seasons, Austin’s late-night partying caused strife at home, and his marriage was tested again in Series 3. Fellow castmate Sean Palmieri claimed of a threesome proposition involving the pair, which almost sparked a physical altercation.

Only time will tell what else lies in store for Austin, who recently welcomed a third child with Lisa. In the meantime, here’s everything to know about him.

Austin Victoria’s Job History

According to Austin’s LinkedIn, he got into real estate in 2017 and joined The Oppenheim Group in 2021. He’s no stranger to the camera, having worked as a professional model for years. He was signed with the talent agency Wilhelmina Models.

He stumbled into the industry via a chance encounter, which he talked about with MMScene in 2016. “My mom and I were eating lunch in Beverly Hills for some reason,” he said. “Anyway, a scouter from Ford approached us and asked if I would swing by their office. Caught me off-guard but I ended up signing that day.”

It turned out to be a life-changing job. “I had such a different idea of how life would be, and modeling really opened my eyes to all the opportunities life offers,” he said. “Now my goals and view on life has changed. I love to travel, meet new interesting people, and I have definitely grown to love the industry.”

Austin Victoria’s Family

Selling The OC highlights the challenges that come with a high-profile job at The Oppenheim Group, which has certainly been true for Austin and Lisa. He married the fashion designer in 2018, and a year later, they welcomed twins Lilah and Hazel. (The twins have their own Instagram and TikTok accounts.)

Last month, on April 25, the couple welcomed their third child, son Aeson Quade. Speaking to People, Austin said he was “over the moon in love” with their new baby boy, adding, “daddy finally got a son!”

As for the rest of the his family: Austin’s parents, Tammy and Geno, own a roofing business in California’s San Gabriel Valley.

Austin Victoria’s Instagram

Austin’s Instagram, @austin_victoria, features a mix of home listings, modeling shoots, and outings with his wife and kids. Back in 2016, when he spoke to MMScene, he said his favorite activity for downtime was being outdoors — which clearly still holds true.
