Biographie

Although not married, he did have an eight year relationship with Terry Biviano. Biviano used her newly acquired fame from being his girlfriend to launch a designer shoe line. In 2006, an article emerged accusing Alex and another girl of canoodling on a beach. The news was faked but, Biviano pulled the plug on the relationship and immediately started seeing someone else. Newspapers have since reported him being in several relationships with women but none being serious again until 2008. The end of that relationship as well as his grief over his ailing mother was cited by friends as the reasons for his arrest for driving under the influence in 2008. It was reported that he had a blood alcohol reading of .11, more than twice the legal limit in Australia. The charge resulted in the suspension of his driver's licence.

In September 2009, Betty Dimitriades, lost her battle with long-time illness. Alex, being very close to his mother, was devastated. He immediately left the filming of "Summer Coda" to be with his family.

Dimitriades, an avid collector of vinyl records, has stated that his love of music started in childhood. He has a passion for both hip hop and dance music. He DJ's professionally across Australia, often referred to as DJ Boogie Monster. Derby Day is a yearly event that he had only ever been one of the opening acts for, but in October 2011, all that changed. Alex was the headline act at the after party for the relaunch of the renovated South Melbourne nightclub, Motel.
