Sterling was born in London, England, where he lived on the poverty line for much of his childhood and was psychologically abused by his mother's lover, a Hells Angels outcast.[1] This abuse is what prompted him to take on the "Jim Sterling" name, saying that he would have had it legally changed, if not for his legal issues.[2] In a video from November 2015 on Fallout 4, when talking about the polyamorous relationship options he stated that he is "not a monogamous guy, nor [...] a straight one either."[3] He openly identifies as pansexual[4] and queer.[5] In June 2020, he became a naturalized United States citizen.[6] In August 2020, Sterling came out as nonbinary on Twitter, saying he accepts all pronouns.[7]
