Personal Life

Nathaniel Potvin was born on October 2, 1999, in Van Nuys, California, U.S., to Andy and Tanya Potvin. Both of his parents are involved in the film industry. He has two brothers named Philip “Philly” Potvin and Gabriel Potvin.

He got his start as an actor when he was 11 years old. A college in their locality was running a summer enrichment program for kids which required taking two courses before the admission and Potvin wanted to sign up for the dance course. Potvin and his mother met the program’s counsellor in her office where he broke into tears and told her that he did not want to take a second course. She turned to his mother and said, “He’s crying so much we might as well put him in drama.” His mother agreed and he started attending the classes. He played the lead role in the student play and thoroughly enjoyed his time there.

Potvin had been taking dance lessons at the Dance Dimensions Performing Arts Center since he was a child. He was part of a hip-hop crew that won several competitions. After doing the drama course for the summer enrichment program, an interest in performing had taken root inside of him. So, when acting classes were being offered at Dance Dimensions, Potvin jumped at the opportunity. It was here that he met his talent manager.

Potvin attended Granada Hills Charter High School, Los Angeles, California before enrolling at Pasadena City College. He currently resides in Los Angeles and is dating Kayla Maisonet, the American actress who plays Georgie Diaz in the Disney Channel sitcom ‘Stuck in the Middle’.
