Find out the details of the adorable and hilarious Henry Cavill story about his nephew landing in hot water at school

When Henry Cavill’s Nephew Got in Trouble at School Because of Him

The tendency to brag about even your slightly famous acquaintance is
commonplace. So imagine what one would do if they not just knew, but were
closely related to the Man of Steel himself. That’s exactly what Henry Cavill’s
little nephew, Thomas, did at school. Sadly, the truth-telling did not go as
planned for Superman’s (Henry Cavill) nephew in this story.

The internet is flooded with a picture of Henry Cavill walking with his nephew
accompanied by a story that may not be true. Many online believe The Witcher
[https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/the-witcher/] actor is accompanying his nephew to
school to prove that Cavill, in fact, is Superman. The speculation stems from an
adorable tale that Cavill narrated years ago. Let’s find out what it was.

THE REAL HENRY CAVILL NEPHEW STORY

Back in 2018, on the LIVE Kelly and Ryan talk show, Henry Cavill
[http://netflixjunkie.com/tag/henry-cavill] candidly spoke about his family.
When asked about his nephews and nieces, Cavill recounted an amusing incident
that occurred with his young nephew, Thomas. On a particular “talk about your
family day” at Thomas’s school, the young boy, unsurprisingly, told the whole
class “his uncle is Superman.”



 

As honest as his confession was, it did not stop his teacher from calling out
the boy and saying, “Thomas, we don’t lie in school.” Thomas, however, “stood by
his guns” saying, “My uncle is Superman. I swear. I promise.” Apparently,
Superman, who is known to save kids by risking his own life, got his own nephew
in trouble at school.

The teacher, obviously, “got upset with him,” so much so that his mom, Cavill
[https://netflixjunkie.com/henry-cavill-opting-not-to-reappear-as-superman-could-be-justified/]‘s
“sister-in-law, was pulled aside when she was picking him up from school.” While
the teacher explained the entire ordeal to the mother, she also commented how
they “don’t encourage the children to lie in school.” Hilariously, Cavill’s
sister-in-law responded to the teacher by saying, “I hate to tell you this, but
it’s all true.”

Now that the story is viral, it has been immortalized by the internet. What did
