Confirming that she had discussed a spin-off with her co-star Jesse, 48, but not with ABC, Aubrey said: “They haven’t really said much about anything.” But my mom asked me, “Would you like to do that?” and I thought about it and I don’t know…

‘I think maybe if it happened, and probably if it did happen, I would have finished high school. Honestly, that would be fine for me, but I want to stay in high school because I only have less than a year and a half left.

“I would definitely be interested if the script was good and the parents were on board, but school is my priority right now unless something great comes along.

When asked how it feels to have been a part of a blockbuster comedy at such a young age, Aubrey said she “doesn’t really feel like a child star.”

‘Recently, people at school have been mentioning that on TikTok, clips of me on the show when I was younger keep appearing on their “For You” page and it was a little strange for a while because a lot of those scenes I don’t do. I don’t remember filming!

“We’re there for work, and things get serious from time to time and that’s okay, you know, that’s just the way it is, and especially for the kids, since we’re doing a lot.” We’re doing table reading, we’re going to school, we’re doing a lot of things, and it can get very, very stressful and a little chaotic, but that’s just the way it is.
