It’s hard to imagine what a challenge that might be for a nine-year-old.

According to him, “…

I asked my mom and got signed up for acting lessons.

These days, he’s much more interested in keeping his private life private than being world-famous.

When I think back on the time, I look at it with a wink.

It was his decision to leave the show after eight years to go to college.

“I’d been going nonstop since I was 8 years old,” he told People.

And, it seems that he may not plan on returning to acting anytime soon.

That doesn’t mean, however, that he’s ditching show business for good.

Because sometime it’ll change, and I’ll have my education to fall back on.”

Even when he was still in the spotlight, folks were curious about who he may have been dating.

This curiosity sparked rumors that he was gay.

He was photographed in Hollywood, and he was walking two small dogs.
