After a flourishing acting career and plenty of magazine covers, he somewhat retreated from the public eye.

While he may have taken something of a break from acting, he didn’t leave the industry altogether.

He is a largely private person, but here’s what we do know.

Young Jonathan Taylor Thomas

Taylor has no social media accounts and has given scant interviews about his personal life.

But he did speak with Jay Leno when he was 17 and addressed the rumors about him being gay.

Thomas made quite the acting career in his younger years.

“I can’t tell you how many shows I’ve done with full-blown migraine headaches.”

And perhaps it was that burnout that led him to leave the spotlight.

Thomas has been largely behind the scenes these days, working as a producer and director.

Even at 14, he expressed a desire to move to another aspect of the industry.

“How serious do you take this stuff?

“I think most [fallen child stars] weren’t prepared for the end.

I mean, it’s not the end of your life!

you’re free to’t base your life around one thing.”

Additionally,Thomas has made few public appearancesin recent years.

With a new bit of coverage, perhaps Thomas will share a bit more about his personal life.
