I was just penalised for overtalking and oversharing and being too loud.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nShe recalled she was accused by trolls of \u201ctrying to steal the thunder\u201d of her castmates and adults would call her \u201can idiot,\u201d \u201cstupid,\u201d and \u201ca brat\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\nMillie, who is engaged to rocker Jon Bon Jovi\u2019s 21-year-old son Jake Bongiovi:<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIt\u2019s hard to hear that at 13.
