Biography

Ryan was born in London, Ontario, on November 12, 1980 to parents Thomas and Donna Gosling. His father’s job as a travelling salesman for a paper mill meant the family – which included older sister, Mandi – moved frequently, until the siblings’ parents called quits on the relationship and divorced.

“I had a difficult time,” admits Ryan of the family’s peripatetic lifestyle, which involved “many schools” and “many teachers”. With her son frequently bullied and struggling with reading and writing, Ryan’s mother enrolled him in a special education class before taking him out of the education system completely in favour of home schooling.

The aspiring actor first demonstrated a knack for showbiz when he and Mandi formed a musical partnership to perform at local talent shows. But the break that would set his career on a whole new path came when he auditioned for the Mickey Mouse Club in Montreal. And after Ryan was chosen over 17,000 other hopefuls also desperate to land a place on the Disney show, things began to look up
