-====== Iain ======
-Iain—occasionally referenced by fans as “Mr Innit” in homage to his son’s stage name—is the father of English YouTuber and Twitch streamer **Thomas Michael Simons (TommyInnit)** and the managing director of **Innit Inc.**, the private company that oversees TommyInnit’s multifaceted media operations. Although Iain maintains a low public profile compared with his son’s on‑camera persona, he fulfils a pivotal behind‑the‑scenes role in contract negotiation, tour logistics and long‑term brand strategy.
