Shia LaBeouf
A viral social media claim suggesting that Shia LaBeouf has a twin sister has been widely circulated online, but there is no evidence to support it.
SHIA LEBEOUF'S SISTER SPEAKS OUT
"My name is Anya Wick, born Anya Beth Epstein on June 4th, 1988 in Boulder, Colorado with my twin brother, Shia LaBeouf, to our father Stephen Bruce Epstein and our mother Shayna Sadie LaBeouf who separated us - forging our birth certificates as… pic.twitter.com/ud3BZfz1qiThe rumor stems from a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), where a TikToker named Anya Wick alleged that she is LaBeouf’s twin sibling. The clip, which amassed millions of views, shows Wick claiming she was born as Anya Beth Epstein and separated from the actor at birth as part of a larger conspiracy. She further made unverified allegations involving a supposed connection to Jeffrey Epstein.
However, publicly available records contradict these assertions. LaBeouf, known for his roles in the Transformers franchise and other films, is the only child of Shayna Saide and Jeffrey LaBeouf. There is no indication that he has any siblings. Additionally, the claims regarding Epstein’s family are inaccurate; the late financier had only one known brother, Mark Epstein, not the individual named in the viral video.
The actor has not publicly responded to the claims, which remain unverified and appear to be based on misinformation.
Separately, LaBeouf has recently made headlines following an incident in New Orleans during Mardi Gras celebrations. According to police, the 39-year-old actor was arrested in connection with an alleged altercation involving two men outside a business on Royal Street. Authorities stated that LaBeouf was reportedly acting aggressively and struck one of the individuals multiple times. He allegedly returned to the scene and continued the confrontation, later punching another individual.
Law enforcement officials confirmed that LaBeouf was taken into custody and later released. The case involves two counts of simple battery, and investigations are ongoing.
Despite the renewed attention surrounding the actor, the viral claim about a supposed twin sister has been debunked, with no credible evidence supporting the narrative.
