• Marvel actor Jack Veal told fans on TikTok that he was homeless after suffering abuse at home.
• Veal played Kid Loki, a child version of Tom Hiddleston's character, in the "Loki" series.
• In the video posted on Sunday the 17-year-old said, "I have nowhere else to go, and I need help."

Jack Veal, who played Kid Loki opposite Tom Hiddleston in Marvel's "Loki" TV series, said he's homeless after facing abuse.

The child actor appeared in "Loki" season one in 2021 when he was 14 as an alternate version of titular character. He also played a younger version of the main character in the popular Netflix original "The End of the F**king World" in 2017.

Veal, who is now 17, posted a video on TikTok on Sunday saying that he isn't living at home because of physical and emotional abuse.

The actor asked his audience to help make the video go viral in a attempt to receive support from the UK government.

"I'm a famous actor, I'm 17 and I'm homeless. You may know me from 'Loki', 'The End of the F***ing World,' or various other movies where I played important roles," he said.

The actor said he experienced physical and emotional abuse at home. "I've been sleeping in the streets," he told fans on Sunday, "I have nowhere else to go, and I need help."

In his initial video, which has accumulated over 241,000 views since the weekend, Veal said that he hadn't received any help from social services despite being under 18.

Veal added at the time of the video he was sleeping in a trailer with broken windows and showed viewers his temporary accommodation.

Veal pleaded with viewers to share his video, "I'm on my knees, begging, for this, for you guys to just share this and do something – spread the message of how the government are treating kids."

According to the British government, children who are 16 and 17 are classed as a "child in need" and should be provided with accommodation support by their local council's Children's Services.

Centrepoint, the UK charity for youth homelessness, said that the government has a "legal duty" to provide safe housing for children who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

In a follow-up video posted on Tuesday, Veal said support from fans has helped his situation. The 17-year-old said social services have arranged a meeting to help get him into foster care and supported accommodation.

In his emotional response he added, "I don't know what you guys have done, but it's gotten out there and it's really, really helped me."

Representatives for Disney and Marvel Studios did not immediately respond to Business Insider's request for comment.
