Thompson has intentionally kept his romantic and private life away from mainstream celebrity spotlights. Unlike influencers and modern reality personalities who share personal milestones for engagement, he protects his home life in Winter Park, Florida, and suburban Las Vegas.
He has never been married. For over a decade, Thompson has been in a long-term, low-profile relationship with partner Amanda Hogan. The couple occasionally appears together at charity galas, theatrical premieres, and Nevada community events, avoiding sensationalist media circuits.
Because Thompson avoided traditional Hollywood dating loops and never spoke about his romantic life on red carpets, early internet forums created unfounded theories regarding his sexual orientation and gender identity. Thompson has handled these questions with good humor over the years, pointing out that maintaining boundaries between his offstage life and his wild stage character is the only reason he stayed grounded through decades of public ridicule.
