Jonathan Taylor Thomas was at the height of his career when he stepped away from Hollywood, leaving young girls yearning for the teen heartthrob, then known as JTT.
The Home Improvement star – who turned 43 on September 8 – was last spotted in 2023, and fans who spent their younger years crushing on him were shocked over his appearance.
After appearing as Greg Brady’s son on the short-lived 1990 TV series The Bradys, a spinoff of The Brady Bunch, Jonathan Taylor Thomas earned the role on Home Improvement, which starred comedian Tim Allen.
Only 10 when the show premiered in 1991, Thomas spent the next eight years growing up in front of an international audience, reaching a stratospheric level of fame as a teen heartthrob.
In 1994, he voiced Simba in Disney’s The Lion King. Despite his fame, Thomas left the show before its final season in 1998, citing exhaustion. Later, he pursued education at Harvard University and Columbia.
Thomas briefly reunited with his Home Improvement co-stars for Last Man Standing (2013-2015), but has largely kept a low profile. Fans were stunned by his rare public appearance in 2023, commenting on how different he looks now.
