Jake Lloyd‘s mom is finally giving an update on the former child actor’s life since Star Wars. The 35-year-old, who is known for playing the young Anakin Skywalker in The Phantom Menace back in 1999, has been pretty quiet since he graced the big screen and became a household name of Star Wars fans everywhere.
But according to his mother, Lisa Lloyd, it’s because he was struggling with his mental health behind closed doors.
In an interview with Scripps News that was published on Monday, Jake’s mom said that he began to struggle with his classes back in high school.
That eventually led to him dropping out of college. By the time 2008 rolled around, he was living back at home in Indiana with his family.
