In the 40 second clip, her dad, Richard Gomersall, can be heard saying: "Please…I don’t want to be like this. I’m 56, look at me, wearing teddy bear pyjamas," as he opens their front door.

When Megan asks if he bought them himself, he replies: "No I didn’t buy them myself, you made us wear them. Ridiculous. I look ridiculous. Like a s*** present."

Megan made a name for herself on the popular social media site during the coronavirus pandemic, creating hundreds of amusing videos taking the mickey out of her dad.

Other videos include the father and daughter working out together, learning viral dances, and trying out a variety of hilarious trends and crazes on the platform.

Speaking to the M.E.N, her dad Richard said: "She cheered millions up during lockdown with her posts, merely taking the mick out of me! Her dad.

"I honestly believe if her TikToks were on TV in little short bursts, then the nation would be smiling much much more and that's just what we need.

"She only started doing them to cheer herself up and others up during Covid and the reaction has been unreal and has helped many people judging off their comments which is wonderful!"

The most recent video, posted on Christmas day, left fans in hysterics and attracted over 180,000 views and over 6,000 likes.

One user wrote: "Merry Christmas to you all. Thank you both for making me laugh so much throughout the year." Another said: "Aww you look great. Don't worry most of the UK are all matching tonight.

Another said: "Merry Xmas to you and your family your made me laugh on my down days keep doing what your doing."

One fan wrote: "It's the crocs that got me with the teddy pjs." Another said: "Lol I thought he might get a day off at Christmas but no chance, Merry Christmas to you all."
