The actor often spoke about being a devoted son and brother. He revealed that the reason his mother, Dyna Mitte, adopted him was that she was told she wouldn't be able to have any children.
However, as fate would have it, a few years later his sister, Lacianne, was born.

The tragedy led RJ Mitte to take on his family's financial responsibilities at just 13.
As for his professional prowess, the 34-year-old actor was best known for playing 'Walter White Jr.', the physically disabled son of a methamphetamine kingpin in the acclaimed television series Breaking Bad. His personal diagnosis of cerebral palsy helped him play the role even better.
