When you are not a celebrity, it is easy to imagine that everything will be solved once you are rich and famous. However, the truth is not that simple. Our favorite Hollywood stars are constantly dealing with the press, demanding schedules, and constant traveling. It can get so overwhelming to the point where they quit! You might be surprised that some people would willingly give up the fame and money for a normal life, but they do exist. Here are several celebrities who left the limelight to pursue a quieter life. On the other hand, others are still active in the industry but a different capacity!
Kirk Cameron
If you watched Growing Pains, you must know who Kirk Cameron is. Even though he earned two Golden Globe nominations over the course of his career, he ultimately left the limelight. He instead focused his attention on his faith. The former actor is a devout Christian and even hosts his very own evangelical show. It is a far cry from the life that he once led as a teenage heartthrob.
Josh Saviano
A lot of people were sad to hear that Josh Saviano left show business for good. Best known for starring in The Wonder Years, he earned his political theory degree from Yale. After that, he studied law at Cardozo and then worked as an attorney at Morrison Cohen LLP. Isn’t it neat to see how far he has made it? He must be passionate about the world of law. We are happy that he has found his calling.
