The young disabled girl evicted from an A-League final with her dad and two sisters on Sunday night has previously starred in a Kmart ad.
Rory Carroll and his three young daughters were escorted by police from Sydney FC's 6-1 A-league semi-final win against Melbourne Victory at Jubilee Oval in Sydney's south.
Mr Carroll has strenuously denied NSW Police claims he snuck into a restricted area to access a bar selling full-strength beer.
Footage of Mr Carroll being confronted and surrounded by police officers shows the little girl anxiously watching on.
Mr Carroll claims he was there to take his disabled daughter Mia, 10 to the toilet and was checking to see if they were clean.
The dispute went viral but it has since emerged that it's not the first time young Mia, who has Down Syndrome, has been famous.

The gorgeous little girl starred in a 2016 Kmart television ad which was one of the first to feature a kid with Down syndrome.
Then aged 7, a laughing Mia steals the show in the 30 second ad and appears to be having the time as she runs around in a pink swan costume while playing with a boy wearing a dinosaur costume.
A spokesperson from Kmart Australia told Daily Mail Australia at the time that 'inclusion' was important to them.
'This is not a new focus for Kmart Australia, but an extension of our broader and very important focus on improving diversity within our business and truly representing our team, customers and communities that we operate in and are part of,' they stated.
Mia also won hearts with her courageous effort while competing at the NSW PSSA track championships in the 100 metre multi-class final last November.

Despite missing the start, a determined Mia tries in vain to catch up with her rivals as she crosses the finish line to the cheers of the crowd and high-fives a race official.
'Celebrating personal best - and how good is school sport,' NSWPSSA tweeted when posting the footage.
'She goes to a normal school, plays soccer in a normal team, does dancing, sings in a kids' choir. She has to work three times as hard, but she's always got a smile, Mr Carroll told 10 Daily at the time.
'Mia never says no to things.'

Mr Carroll spent most of Monday hitting back at the police's version of events, saying he was not drinking beer during the game and that a 'power-tripping' security guards and police officers forced his family to leave.
'When you have a disabled child, familiarity is a good thing. They like their routines. And I'm a parent,' he told 10 Daily.
Mr Carroll said he wanted to make sure the toilets were at an acceptable standard for his daughter as the semi-final had drawn a larger-than-usual crowd to Jubilee Oval on Sunday night.
He said his daughter wanted to use the same toilets as she usually does, despite there being disabled toilets near where they were sitting.
He said he was drinking Coke at the game, not beer.
They were asked to leave the ground after Mr Carroll tried to take his disabled daughter to a toilet in a restricted are
'I brought two of my daughters and a best friend to the football on a Sunday night, a school night. I got them organised and I'd had a busy week myself. I take my responsibilities as a driver seriously. I had three girls with me and was not drinking. The only thing I was drinking was Coke,' he said.
Mr Carroll said he was not being 'belligerent', and said he would reconsider ever going to a soccer game ever again.
He also shared a photo of his match ticket, which he said proved he had valid entry to the ground.
Mr Carroll claimed 'riot squad' police vehicles followed him after the game as he took his children to a McDonald's restaurant in Kogarah for an ice cream.
'Whilst I have witnesses, the McDonald's car park footage will show that the driver of the Riot Squad vehicle drove so close to me as he parked as to intimidate,' he tweeted on Monday.
'For the record, when driving kids a parent doesn't usually drink. I was not drinking yesterday evening, I take my responsibilities as a driver seriously. To inpune (sic) otherwise is disgraceful.
'I needed to go and check the same toilet that my daughter uses for its cleanliness.'
Mr Carroll also shared a photo which he claimed showed a
