"The video sums him up," says Belle. "He was brilliant, had a sense of humour, he was so funny. A proper daddy bear."

Belle, an NHS worker, said the day they scattered their dads ashes was an "emotional day".

"When the accident with the ashes happened it helped lighten the mood and we both walked away laughing."

Belle and her siblings, Tyla and Cohen Halls, grew up in Ilfracombe, Devon. One of the siblings' fondest memories was growing sunflowers with him as a child.

The TikTok was posted on the 23rd of October 2021 and has gained over 1.2m views and comments.

"I didn't expect the video to blow up. Within the first 3 hours there were 6 likes. I went to bed, woke up the next day and it was on nearly a million views."

"My sister Tyla is worried someone's going to see her as the girl that inhaled her dad. I think it's pretty funny"

Belle has been on TikTok for two years. She describes most of her videos as funny and says a few of them have also gone viral. She says that "luckily" no one has come up to her in the street and said anything about her videos.
