However, he has revealed that he considers his parents to be role models because they’ve shown him that love and compassion can exist even in the darkest of days.
In an interview with Parade, Matt said, “My dad told me to trust myself out here. I think, as I said, that voice of anxiety is always there and always talking me down. And at home, I can always turn to my parents or best friends to talk me out of that negative headspace.”
