'Loki' Star Jack Veal Seeks Assistance, Reveals Homelessness at 17
The young actor who portrayed Kid Loki in the inaugural season of Marvel's "Loki" series has reached out to the public amidst personal struggles. Jack Veal recently took to TikTok, expressing his dire situation with the words, "Hello. I'm a recognized actor, I'm 17, and I'm without a home."
Veal, known for his roles in "Loki," "The End of the F*ing World," and various other significant parts, shared, "I've kept silent about my struggles, but it's time to unveil the truth." He recounted his experiences, saying, "Without delving too much into the details, I was subjected to abuse at home. It involved physical aggression, emotional torment, and more."
The young actor revealed he had "no other options and needs assistance." He lamented, "Social services have turned a blind eye despite my disclosures. I'm in a critical situation. I've been residing on the streets." Currently, Veal finds refuge in a trailer with broken windows, posing safety risks, located two hours away from his workplace, complicating his daily commute. "It's challenging. Life is tough," he admitted.
Veal urged his followers to disseminate his story in hopes of securing accommodation near London. In a subsequent video on Tuesday, Veal announced that social services had reached out for a meeting which might offer him aid.
"I don't know what you all did, but it's made an impact and significantly aided me. They're initiating steps now," he conveyed, adding, "They're genuinely taking action. Bless you all. Thank you immensely."
He assured a follow-up post after the meeting.
