Fate of UK TikTok?

Apparently Microsoft intends to buy TikTok's operations in the US, Canada, NZ and Australia. What happens to the UK in this scenario? Will UK users be able to access US TikTok or will they be cut off? It will be a pretty thin experience with most English-language content removed. I'm not clear why MS wouldn't buy the UK operations too, not least given UK is the fifth Eye. Can anyone explain?
