The magazine piece titled How Bam Margera, The Britney Spears of Jackass, Is Getting Back on Top takes a look at his time away from the Jackass franchise after he was removed from Jackass Forever in 2020. Since then, he has gone through a period of personal struggle, followed by steps toward rebuilding his daily life in a more steady direction.

According to the feature, Margera has been focusing on staying away from substances that caused him trouble in earlier years. He has also leaned into skating again as part of his routine, using it as a way to stay active and grounded. Alongside that, he has spoken about finding a healthier rhythm in his personal life and reconnecting with people close to him.

The article also mentions his relationship status, noting that he has found a new partner who has been part of his support system. While his past has been widely documented through reality television and film projects, this recent update focuses more on how he is trying to rebuild structure in his day to day life rather than returning to his previous media presence.

Skating remains central to him, not as a performance for cameras but more as a familiar part of his identity. The Rolling Stone feature frames this phase of his life as one where he is taking things at a slower and more personal pace, with attention on stability rather than public attention.

For fans who followed him during the early Jackass and skate video era, the update shows a different side of him compared to the chaos and humor he was once known for on screen. It presents a more grounded chapter, shaped by recovery efforts, personal relationships, and time spent back on a skateboard.
