Early life
[edit]Gatt was born in the Notting Hill area of London on 3 December 1971, the son of Maltese immigrant parents; his father is from Paola and his mother is from Lija. While growing up, he spent summers with his family in Malta.[3] He was diagnosed with alopecia universalis at the age of 12.[3][4] He trained as an actor at the Sylvia Young Theatre School before joining the Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, where he graduated with a bachelor's degree.[5]
Career
[edit]After graduating from drama school, Gatt's first film role was in Orpheus & Eurydice (2000), playing opposite Oliver Reed in one of Reed's last films. He has performed in many musicals in London's West End and in national tours.
Personal life
[edit]Gatt lives in Los Angeles with Mercy Malick, his girlfriend, since around 2009.[3]
In February 2024, the Los Angeles Deputy District Attorney dismissed all charges against Gatt[6][7] stemming from an arrest in April 2022 for allegedly having sexually explicit chats with a minor online.[8]
