Maya Jama has revealed she actually became a millionaire aged 24

Maya Jama has revealed she became a millionaire two years ago.

The Bristol native and radio DJ told the Evening Standard that she actually became a millionaire two years ago after it had been reported she had crossed the financial milestone this year telling the publication that 'they obviously only just checked my bank account.'

She went on to reveal that she's never been money motivated and that becoming a millionaire was never her goal.

She told the publication: "You do something you enjoy and then you get paid for it and you're like: 'Oh my gosh, this is so cool!'"

And this has included everything from landing TV presenting jobs, launching a fashion line and skincare range among other things.

But the former Cotham School student isn't slowing down anytime soon. She went on to reveal to the Evening Standard that she has also taken up acting classes to pursue her film career after making her debut in Katherine Ryan's Netflix show the Duchess.

This comes not long after a pillow mist claiming to smell like the 26-year-old star was released by Pour Moi lingerie firm.

She joined the likes of global celebrities Rihanna, Jennifer Aniston, Bradley Cooper, Harry Styles, Zac Efron and Margot Robbie in the collection of pillow mists.
