Family & Personal Life
Spencer Elmer was born on February 2, 2000, in Devon, England, and grew up along with his older brother Elliot. After graduating from high school, he enrolled at a college but soon started having problems. According to Spencer, it did not feel like he was part of it and he was always the odd one out. Moreover, he was not learning anything significant. He subsequently had a conversation with his parents, during which he expressed his desire to take a year off. His YouTube channel was turning out to be a successful venture, and he wanted to see where it would lead. Initially, his parents were vehemently against the idea. After much convincing, they eventually relented.
In an interview with 4Music, Spencer admitted that his life had changed drastically over the course of the past couple of years. In 2016, he used to wake up every day at his mother’s house, attend school, come back home, and then make videos. Now, his daily routine is completely different. Sometime in early 2018, he moved to London and rented a residence with several fellow YouTubers, including Carmie Sellitto (touchdalight) and Millie T. Spencer. They are all part of the YouTube group The Social Climbers that also includes Jordan Houston, Ben Morris, Kate Elisabeth, LookingForLewys, and Jacob White. All of them were already accomplished YouTubers when this group was formed in 2017. The members often make appearances in each other’s vlogs. Some of their videos feature the members participating in challenges and doing covers of tracks like Lil Pump's 'Gucci Gang'. YouTubers Jack Sims, Joshua Wood Stacey, and Olly Aston are also Spencer’s friends.
