    Hawk Tuah Girl, whose real name is Haliey Welch, recently posted a video on Instagram, giving her followers a glimpse into her hometown life .

    In the video, Haliey expressed her shock and surprise at going viral, as well as proudly showing off the small town where she grew up and until recently worked in a spring factory . She said: "I'm Hailey and I'm from Belfast , Tennessee. It's a little small area near Lewisburg."

    Speaking of her unexpected rise to fame , she said: "It's really been a blessing. I really had no idea that one in Broadway having fun with your friends and everything else would change your whole life around."

    The heartwarming montage features the internet sensation applying makeup in her room and gently stroking horse muzzles. Alongside the video, in which Haliey described her rise to internet fame as a "blessing" , she posted a heartfelt message thanking people for their support.

    The former-spring factory worker wrote: "Three weeks ago my life was totally different...I was working a humble 9-5 in my hometown. No talk shows or paparazzi were looking for me and no celebrities were reaching out to collab. I was just Haliey.

    "I never could've dreamed that making a silly little joke would lead to all of this but I'm so grateful for this blessing. I'm also grateful for all of you, yall laughed WITH me and not AT me. I can't thank yall enough.... lets see what happens next."

    The video notably showcased her close bond with Granny Janie, Haliey's grandmother who gave her take on her young relative's recent found fame.

    In her first public statement, Ganny Janie opened up about her feelings regarding the viral fame and expressed her deepest wish concerning her granddaughter. Granny Janie confessed: "I don't know how to feel, it's crazy. I never thought anything like this would happen. It's just too much to comprehend."

    She expressed her desire for her granddaughter to stay close, saying touchingly: "I just want her to stay with me as long as I'm here."
