A self-proclaimed 'rich kid of Instagram' who bragged his family were 'British Kardashians' has been charged over extreme porn and indecent images of children.

Jack Watkin rose to fame in 2016 after claiming to have a £1.7million fleet of high-end cars, access to his father's private jet and had been chosen to appear on a TV show.

The 25-year-old claimed he owned supercars, including Rolls-Royces, Bentleys, Mercedes-Benz, a Porsche and a Range Rover and shared posts of his life on social media.

Eight years later police in Cheshire launched an appeal to try and find him, claiming he was wanted in connection with an alleged breach of bail conditions.

Police arrested him at Macclesfield train station and have since charged him with possession of extreme pornography.
