Hollywood Star, 34, Finally Gets His High School Diploma

THE GRADUATE

Jeremy Allen White obtained his diploma at the premiere of “Springsteen.”

Jeremy Allen White, 34, is finally a high school graduate—sort of. The actor revealed on Live with Kelly and Mark on Thursday that his high school drama teacher, Greg Parente, brought him his diploma after White invited him to the New York Film Festival premiere of Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere last month. At the end of the night, Parente gave him a gift. “I was like, ‘Ah, you don’t have to do this, this is crazy, what are you giving me a gift for?’ And I open it up and it is my high school diploma,” he told cohosts Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos. White said he wasn’t a good student in high school and didn’t have enough credits to graduate. “So as of last night, at 34 years old, I graduated high school,” he said. “So I’ve got that in my hotel room now, and it’s really nice.”
