The child actor who starred as Iron Man’s daughter in the latest Avengers film is getting bullied by people.
“Please don’t bully my family – or me,” the seven-year-old artist, Lexi Rabe, asked her fans in a video message posted on Instagram.
The young star got a huge fanbase after she played Morgan, with Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) as her on-screen dad, in Avengers: Endgame.
And who can forget all the feels that she gave us with her ‘I love you 3,000’ line?
While the 7-year-old rocked her role in the box office hit, her off-screen life is seemingly not easygoing.
Taking to Instagram, Lexi’s mom Jessica revealed that her adorable little girl is ‘getting bullied’ even though she is a ‘normal human being,’ and can have certain situations where she acts out with her parents and gets effectively corrected.
Jessica wrote on Instagram: “I hate that we even have to post this.
“But yet again Lexi’s getting bullied. And this kind of thing makes it [so] celebrities never want to leave the house, never want to meet people.
“Please keep your opinions to yourself so Lexi can grow up in the free world.
“She’s a normal human being and she’s a child. We give her a talking and we give her timeouts but we don’t do that in public.
She added: “Sometimes we’re rushing from place to place stressed like everyone else to get to set on time or work or whatever and we seem a little grumpy. I’m sorry if you see us this way but that’s life!
“If you ask us for an autograph we always almost say yes. If we happen to be having a bad day that might put us right on the right!
“We are not perfect! These perfect children are not being given the freedoms and the rights that they should. If your child is so scared to be themselves in public and mess up a little then you’re over parenting.
“We give our children plenty of rules and boundaries but then give them the freedoms to mess up and learn from their own mistakes.
“They would not be on set and on movies if they weren’t well behaved. Trust me they have no desire to hire kids like that! And there were plenty of children that productions can work with.
She concluded: “So if you see us in public and think you have the right to judge. Wait. Number one, until you have children of your own, and Number two, realize that we’re not perfect and we’re not claiming to be!
“But just try to realize the different strokes for different folks – what you do with your kids may work for you and what I do with my kids works well for me.
“My children love me and respect me even if they act out sometimes. Thank you!”
The post also contained a video message from the little star, saying: “I mess up sometimes… If I go anywhere, and I’m acting a little silly or [messing] up or anything like that, I’m just seven years old.”
“Please don’t bully my family – or me,” the adorable girl said.
Lexi also revealed that whenever she is found misconducting, she gets disciplinary punishments like a ‘timeout’ or a ‘talking to’ from her parents.
She ended her message by blowing a goodbye kiss and quoting her famed dialogue: “Bye. Love you 3000!”
