His family is blissfully unaware that he is gay. He doesn’t want to tell his mother because she’s extremely religious and he doesn’t want to tell his father because he’s afraid he’ll blame himself because of the divorce and not having a man in his life on a daily basis. Ryan was discovered in the open casting call in NYC.
