‘Loki’ star Jack Veal shared on a TikTok video that he’s homeless and desperate.
“Hi. I’m a famous actor, I’m 17 and I’m homeless,” the actor said in the video. “You may know me from ‘Loki,’ ‘The Ending of the F*cking World,’ or various other movies where I played important roles.”
He continued, “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 and etcetera.”
“I didn’t have a very good upbringing. I’ve struggled with mental health. I have autism, ADHD, and am being screened for bipolar and psychosis. I have nowhere else to go, and I need help. Social services refuse to help me, despite what I have told them. I am desperate,” Veal revealed.
The actor added, “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 everyday. It’s difficult. Life is hard. At the moment, I have nothing else. I am on my knees begging for you guys to share this, do something, spread the message with how the government are treating kids.”
After his videos went viral, Veal said social services called him about possibly going into foster care. He thanked his followers for sharing his videos. He said on TikTok, “I just got a call from social services saying that they want a meeting with me to potentially get me into foster care or accommodation.”
Veal then noted, “I don’t know what you guys have done, but it’s gotten out there and it’s really, really helped me. They’re taking action now. They’re actually doing something. God bless you all. Thank you so much.”
Veal also starred in ‘The Peripheral,’ ‘Tin Star,’ ‘Come Away,’ ‘The Corrupted,’ ‘Call the Midwife’ and ‘My Name Is Lenny.’
