He went on to add: 'And that was it. So we left it mutual and parted ways.'

But the former child star seemed optimistic about his dating future. 

'I'm a single guy again, recently came out as bisexual, so that's who I am,' Aaron said. 'And I'm just taking it one minute, and one day, and one comment at a time.' 

'All I can say is that I'm really looking forward to the future right now, and whether I choose to be with a man or a woman is my decision, and no one else's,' he added firmly.

He also admitted that his 'first experience with a man was at 17' but he knew of his bisexuality from the young age of 12.
