Popular Hollywood Child Stars We Used to Adore – Find Out Who Grew Up To Be A Huge Success
Jake Lloyd
Jake Lloyd is best known for portraying the character of Anakin Skywalker in the movie Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace, back in 1999. After this role, at the age of only 12, Lloyd decided it was time for retirement. He stated that the reason why he didn’t want to pursue an acting career was due to being bullied in school by other kids. In 2015, the former child star has had some problems with the authorities and was even arrested for driving without a license. Sadly, Lloyd was also diagnosed with schizophrenia and underwent therapy for his condition. We hope he feels better soon.
