Early Life
Joshua Heuston was born in Sydney, NSW, Australia, on 18th November 1996. He lived with his mother and two younger sisters in the close-knit community of Western Sydney’s town of Baulkham Hills. Heuston is what he calls in some of his interviews “Anglo-Sri Lankan” (ASL), and he discusses his heritage in relation to issues of identity and representation in the entertainment industry. When he was an adolescent, he was shy and “had a lot of love for fantasy films, games, and online culture,” Heuston said. He has publicly confessed his addiction to The Lord of the Rings and hours of World of Warcraft. Having been born an introvert, he wasn’t interested in the theater in school but loved to tell stories and watch movies.
Post-school, Heuston studied at Macquarie University as a highly competitive double major in biomolecular science and commerce. He did, however, gain an insight into the fact that his true interests were not along the academic path. To make ends meet, he would serve as a bartender and event waiter while in college. His life was suddenly turned upside down at this time, when a modeling agent saw him at an event.
Acting soon started to become an integral part of a fashion shoot, a photo shoot, and a digital content production. Heuston began to gain an online following on social media platforms Instagram and YouTube that would later help to make him known in the fashion industry in Australia.
