By Ashley Malone

Finn Wolfhard recently shocked fans when he created a new Instagram account, but he gave context as to why he abandoned his previous profile despite having 21 million followers.

In a video posted on his new page, the "Stranger Things" star warned his fans to unfollow his first account, saying it is run by his father, who only cares about "gambling and money."

"If you follow my other account @finnwolfhardofficial, don't follow it! It's run by my dad, he doesn't even give a s*** about you guys, all he cares about is gambling and money." (watch the video below)

In addition, his latest account will feature most of his adventures in Hollywood, Los Angeles, with his friends.

"@finnjee.la, it's a real account made by real people, it's gonna be me in LA, going to the Hollywood sign, hiking in the canyon with my bestfriends," he added.

To conclude his video, he told his fans to check out his Patreon account for more exclusive content.

At the time of this writing, his father, Eric Wolfhard, has not publicly commented on the matter.
