10. Jeremy Miller struggled with addiction
Jeremy Miller played younger brother Ben Seaver on the show. He was a cute kid who delivered his witty one-liners just fine, but he was always in the shadow of Kirk Cameron. It was later revealed that the actor had a long struggle with alcoholism. He supposedly started drinking at the age of four, and credits the rehab company Fresh Start for keeping him sober. He is now a spokesperson for the organization. He’s only had a little voice-over work and occasional acting gigs in the years since Growing Pains.
