Dafne Keen recalls being offered cocaine as a child actor
Actress Dafne Keen shared details regarding her experiences growing up in the entertainment industry during an appearance on the Inside of You podcast with Michael Rosenbaum. The 21-year-old star, known for her roles in Logan and Deadpool & Wolverine, stated that she was offered cocaine at industry wrap parties when she was approximately 11 or 12 years old.
Keen explained that witnessing substance use at such a young age contributed to her decision to avoid drugs and alcohol. She noted that she has little interest in such substances and described herself as a control freak regarding her sobriety. She also mentioned that as a teenager, she would occasionally lie about having consumed alcohol to avoid peer pressure.
Reflecting on her early career, Keen praised Hugh Jackman for his protective nature while they filmed Logan. She credited him with ensuring her working hours were not being abused and providing a sense of security on set.
