Born on the 20th of January, 2002, and raised in Trinity, Florida, Joshua Robert Colley was raised in an artistic family that fostered his interest in the arts and also has a twin brother Cameron. He began acting at the age of nine and subsequently relocated to Los Angeles to pursue greater opportunities in television and film after establishing himself in theater. 

Love life and relationships 

Colley has been open about his changing sexual orientation, publicly announcing himself to be "definitely not straight" and describing his self-image as changing throughout the years. Beyond that openness, he keeps his romantic life private. No credible public reports exist of a current partner; social media sometimes fuels fan gossip about friendships with co-stars, but Colley has not publicly confirmed any specific romance.
