TikTok star Morgan James says it has been a "wild" journey from first posting on the app in 2019 to gaining 1.1 million followers.

James, who is originally from Brighton, was inspired by a friend to post music content on TikTok before branching out and doing lifestyle videos.

"It's incredible that it has become a full-time job, it was never the plan," he said. "I was just posting because I love creating."

The creator, who used to be a videographer and wedding singer, said it was "incredible" to be able "to make my hobby my job".

James' career has taken him abroad to the premiere of season two of Squid Games in South Korea, the set of Malice with Jack Whitehall in Greece, and even the Love Island villa where host Maya Jama threw a pie in his face.
