Ryan Thomas’ 16-year-old daughter, Scarlett, has hit back at ‘nepo baby’ claims with a short video on TikTok. The teenager has many famous family members, including Love Island’s Scott Thomas and Emmerdale’s Adam Thomas. Her mother is also Coronation Street star Tina O’Brien.
The daughter of the soap stars took to her social media page to share a carefree video of herself riding the passenger seat of a convertible car in the sunshine as she lip-synced to the 1977 hit song Easy by Commodores. In the clip, She wore oversized sunglasses, and gold hoop earrings and rocked an off-the-shoulder jumper.
Over the clip, Scarlett typed out a comment she receives from trolls, which is: “You only got these opportunities because of your family.”
In response, Scarlett wrote: “God forbid a girl takes the chances she gets.” Fans shared their support for the teen in the comment section, with one user writing: “Girl it’s jealousy! You enjoy every bit of it.”
Another said: “You have talent, regardless of your family.” One fan posted: “God forbid a girl who has opportunities and doesn’t waste them.”
Scarlett has been racking up the views on her TikTok thanks to her content with her famous family, including uncles Scott and Adam Thomas.
Now, as her influencer status soars, it was recently claimed the celebrity clan have big plans for her future. It’s said the family spend hours dedicating their career in a bid to choose the right path for her and her cousin, Teddy.
After a recent video of her showing behind-the-scenes clips of her life with her famous family received over 25 million views, experts in the industry believe she will be able to bag a cool £2million from her content before she turns 18.
PR expert Lynn Carratt told The Sun: “It’s clear they’re a close-knit family who understand how to use social media effectively to build their careers. They capitalise on TikTok trends, and each member is talented in their own right.
“From a PR perspective, the family TikTok videos are an excellent platform for displaying the family’s talent to a huge audience.”
Talking about Scarlett’s famous parents, the PR expert added: “With both parents in TV, their talent has clearly rubbed off on Scarlett. She comes across as a confident and likeable girl who is close to her family.”
Lynn went on to say the family clips were a great way to leverage each person’s personalities to showcase their own skills and personas.
