The 21-year-old took to Instagram to tell his 4.5 million followers:

"Hi guys, so, I wasn't going to say anything, because I didn't want to worry anybody, or be dramatic."

"But, now the story's out there, I have Coronavirus, I've tested positive, all is fine, I'm isolating."

"I have no symptoms, luckily, so, I'm just chilling, I'm bored, I've been making a million TikToks if you haven't seen them already"

"But it just proves us youngsters we can get it and not even realise."

"So, for now, stay safe, I'm fine, I'm chilling, but I'm going to be in this bedroom for the next ten days or two weeks, I'm not sure- but I'm gonnna' be here for a while!"

"I guess I'll see you guys on the other side."
