TikTok star Paul Arnott, 29, who has 153,000 followers on social media, has joined the search for teenager Jay Slater, who has gone missing in Tenerife
British TikToker Paul Arnott, known for his Down the Rapids page with more than 153,000 followers, has joined the search for missing teen Jay Slater and is set to meet with the lad's family today.
The 29 year old shared: "I'm meeting the family today. They said they wanted to meet me. They said they're really proud of what I'm doing. I've been speaking with Brad's mum, Rachel. They wanted to bring me food but I said no." Paul is not the only person who has flown out to join the search - This Morning's crime journalist Isla Traquair has been reporting live from the scene since Thursday morning, a move which has drawn criticism from viewers as Isla reprimanded amateur sleuths who had travelled to Tenerife to investigate on air just the day before.
He was last seen leaving their Airbnb holiday rental, nestled just outside the quaint village of Masca on the side of a mountain in the Rural de Teno National Park, on Monday morning. He had phoned his friend Lucy Law to tell her he was lost and trying to find his way back to the hotel, but his phone battery was critically low at just one per cent.
