Widely recognized by his alias ‘Morgz,’ Morgan Hudson is a popular YouTuber from England. Despite the controversy surrounding his content, Morgz has amassed a substantial fortune online. Thanks to YouTube, Morgz has a net worth of £4 million.
Income Sources
Morgz has built a considerable fortune and earns an estimated $250,000 per year from YouTube ad revenue. His earnings have dropped by roughly 50% because he doesn’t upload videos consistently. Over the last year, he’s only created three videos!
Morgz’s income is supplemented through partnerships with brands like Spotify, G2A, and GT Omega Racing, as well as merch sales from his website. In 2020, the prankster launched a mobile app called the Morgz Ultimate Challenge. He hasn’t disclosed how much revenue the venture generates but the app is highly rated.
According to Companies House in the UK, Morgan is the director of two businesses called MCH Diamond Property Ltd and Morgz Ltd. He has shrewdly invested a large chunk of his money into property. The latest filing shows he owns around £3.5 million worth of property.
Background
Born on August 6, 2001, to Jill and Darren, Hudson grew up in Sheffield, England. His family now includes stepfather, Martin Green, affectionately referred to as “Bald Martin” and occasionally features in videos.
Morgan has no other siblings but treats Jenson Bell (Mini Morgz) like a brother but is not related to him. According to rumors, he is the son of Jill’s friend. Morgan dropped out of school at 15 years old to focus on YouTube and was a gifted student.
YouTube Career
Previously known as LegendaryGamerHD, Morgz’s channel initially focused on video games such as FIFA, Minecraft, and Call of Duty. Upon reaching 1,000 subscribers, he rebranded the channel to MorgzGaming before finally settling on Morgz.
2016 marked a significant turning point when his FIFA 17 series gained widespread recognition, with one video getting over 2 million views in a matter of days. Following this milestone, his content featuring Pokemon GO became a career highlight.
As his popularity grew, Morgz diversified his content by integrating pranks and other engaging activities into videos. To date, the channel has received over 3.5 billion views.
Controversies
Morgz has faced criticism, particularly his 24-hour challenge videos. Many have accused him of copying videos from MrBeast multiple occasions. This gained traction following a tweet from Chandler Hallow, a close buddy of MrBeast, showing side-by-side comparisons of their videos.
Critics have argued that some content deviates from his earlier kid-friendly approach. One particularly contentious video title implied that his mother was a sexual predator.
Personal Life
The British YouTuber dated fellow social media influencer Kiera Bridget for a year. They broke up in 2019 and remain close friends. Next he dated Instagram model, Tamzin Taber and is now allegedly dating a girl named Megan.
Morgan Hudson resides with his family in Dronfield, UK. The YouTuber’s personal assets include a $600,000 Lamborghini Aventador. Recently, Morgz has begun regular workout routines as part of a new fitness journey.
