Personal life

Mills was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He was raised in Baltimore, Maryland, [7] before he went to boarding school in Canada and Australia. [8] After graduating boarding school in Canada, he planned to attend college to study psychology. However, a local scout approached him one day and asked if he'd be interested in modelling. He soon moved to New York and a few weeks later, he booked his first runway show, walking for Gucci. [6]

He is the youngest of five children, [7] with two older brothers and two older sisters.

Career

After beginning his career in 2001, Mills progressed into working with a number of fashion companies, most notably Wilhelmina Models, from which he started his model life. In 2004, Mills made his debut as a runway model for the fall Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent collections in Milan and Paris. [6] In early 2005, he signed a contract with Dolce & Gabbana. [9]

He has been a fixture at the Dolce & Gabbana, Versace and Michael Kors shows for many seasons now. In 2009, Mills appeared in the naked Dolce & Gabbana Anthology Fragrance campaign with a number of other established models including Claudia Schiffer, Naomi Campbell and Tyson Ballou. [10]

In 2010, he appeared in Sex and the City 2 opposite Kim Cattrall's character, Samantha Jones. Mills became one of the models to star in Lacoste's "new look" campaign in January 2011, a different advertising concept under the new tagline, "Unconventional Chic".

Mills plays Sean, who comes home after serving a five-year prison sentence and must contend with "the remains of a life interrupted."
