Early life
Gatt was born and raised in London to Maltese parents. His father is from Paola and his mother is from Lija. The family spent their summers in Malta while Gatt was growing up.[1]
When Gatt was a teenager he found out he was colour blind, preventing him from fulfilling his dream of joining the RAF and becoming a fighter pilot. The stress of this news was possibly the trigger for his alopecia universalis, which he was diagnosed with at age 12.[1] This rare medical condition caused all of Gatt's hair to fall out at the age of 14.[2]
Gatt began his professional training at the Sylvia Young Theatre School. He then went to Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, graduating with a bachelor's degree.[3]
Career
Actor
After graduating from drama school, Gatt's first film role was in Orpheus & Eurydice, playing opposite Oliver Reed in one of his last movie roles. Gatt also performed in many musicals in London's West End and in national tours.
Model
Gatt has sustained a successful career as a model in Europe and the United Kingdom working for Giorgio Armani, Vogue UK, British Telecom, Levi's, Northern Rock, Gucci and Guess Jeans, among others.[4]
Personal life
Gatt lives in Los Angeles with his partner, Mercy Malick.[1]
