In his “holding myself accountable” video, the influencer addressed why he had been so “reckless” in past relationships and said he was “desperate”.
James Charles said: “I do understand with these videos coming to it’s really starting to – not even starting to – it’s really looking, period, like I’m actively searching for younger people to be in a relationship with.
