Kid Loki is currently out on the streets and in some pretty horrific circumstances… Because of alleged abuse within his home.
On Monday, Jack Veal, the teen responsible for bringing Kid Loki to life in Season 1 of Disney+’s Loki series shared a troubling TikTok revealing his current status. He told followers:
“Hi. I’m a famous actor, I’m 17, and I’m homeless. You may know me from Loki, End of the F**king World or various other movies where I played important roles. I haven’t mentioned much about what’s been going on in my life, but I think it’s time to reveal the truth. Without delving too much into the details, I was abused at home. It was physical violence, emotional abuse. I didn’t have a very good upbringing.”
Whoa… He went on to reveal:
“I’ve struggled with mental health. I have autism, ADHD, and am being screened for bipolar and psychosis.”
Poor kid.
The Marvel star explained he can’t stay with his grandparents because his grandfather is “terminally unwell,” and Social Services “refuses” to help:
“I have nowhere else to go. And I need help. Social Services refuses to help me despite what I told them. I am desperate. I’ve been sleeping in the streets. I am currently sleeping in a trailer that has smashed-in windows, is unsafe and is two hours away from my work, which means I struggle to get to work every day. It’s difficult. Life is hard. At the moment, I have nothing else.”

He added:
“I am on my knees begging for you guys to just share this, do something, spread the message of how the government are treating kids.”
The teen then went on to show his living conditions… Which looks pretty dire. He concluded:
“I need help. Please share this with whoever you can. You don’t have to pay me anything, I don’t need anything. I just need you to make this go as viral as possible.”
