A recovering drug addict turned TikTok influencer is stirring up controversy after posting a video showing her allegedly spending weekends living in the barracks with her Marine boyfriend—something explicitly against military regulations.
Taylor Morris, who openly documents her battle with cocaine and methamphetamine addiction on TikTok, posted a video of her boyfriend carrying what she called her weekend bag into his barracks room at Marine Corps Base Quantico. The caption?
“Not the worst place I’ve stayed but I feel like I’m back in my cell with these walls 🤣🤣🤣”
The video, tagged with #militarygirlfriend and #barrackslife, has drawn over 16,000 likes and hundreds of comments—many from current or former service members pointing out that overnight guests are not allowed in barracks under any circumstances.
In the clip, the Marine is seen casually hauling Morris’s bag while she records and jokes about how depressing the barracks feel. While some in the comments defend her by citing “visitor hours,” others aren’t buying it, noting the caption clearly implies she’s staying overnight—not just visiting.
“Good way to get him into trouble.”
“Can’t wait til his team leader sees this.”
Others pushed back, arguing that weekend visits are common and commands often look the other way. Still, military policy is clear: no civilians are allowed to sleep overnight in single-service member barracks.
This isn’t Morris’s first brush with controversy. According to her other TikTok posts, she’s been sober for over nine months after a near-fatal overdose that required her to be resuscitated by paramedics. She credits God for helping her get clean and for bringing her a “good man”—her Marine boyfriend.

While her road to recovery is commendable, flaunting rule-breaking behavior on social media isn’t winning her—or her boyfriend—many fans in the military community.
It’s unclear whether Marine Corps leadership is aware of the video, but if they are, the young Marine in question could face administrative action or a counseling statement for violating barracks policy. At the very least, this serves as yet another reminder: what happens in the barracks doesn’t stay in the barracks if you post it on TikTok.
