John was born on the 27th of January, 1966 in the Allegheny General Hospital, which is located on the northern site of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, United States of America. Born in a middle class working family as the eldest of three children; his father Ronnie had a delivery business and his mother owned a small bakery shop in the local town. He was raised in his parents’ house in Indiana and was enrolled at the local school. As a child, he was not very confident and open and often stumbled in his class; which did not particularly boost his self-confidence.
Later, his father changed business and thus the family moved to Steubenville, Ohio; when he was 11 years of age. There he studied at the Steubenville Catholic Central High School where he took part actively in science projects, and was very good in class. In order to boost his confidence level his parents put him in drama class which was a big step for him. Apart from studies he also took part in sports and other extra-curricular; especially hosting and announcing. Wanting to become a media person, he studied Telecommunications at Heidelberg College, and majored in Communications and Theater Arts.
With a height of 5 feet and 9 inches, John has a very slim body type and despite the search, there aren’t any shirtless pictures of his on the media. Also there is not much information regarding his girlfriends and affairs; and seems like he has a low profile social life. Despite many people have concluded him to be sexually gay, he has openly denied those accusations. Rumors suggest that he has an Italian girlfriend but it is not sure whether they are married yet or have already been divorced. Thus there is no news regarding his wife or children; that is if he has any.
