A fourth added: "Drop him, you deserve better...treat yourself for Christmas, and take care."

Following the backlash, Colbi uploaded another video to defend her boyfriend.

She said: "In regards to my last video, that was a complete joke.

"I actually accidentally told him that he was a downgrade, so he said that back as a joke and apologised.

"Like I was laughing, that picture of me crying was for something stupid from months ago.

"Sorry for the confusion and hate, I appreciate the support if that was actually to happen."

Lots of people were less relieved by the explanation - with one viewer commenting: "Thank god! I thought it was a joke."

Another added: "Once again, people taking it out of hand."

A third replied: "Good girl, I was ready to come find him for you."

But others were less forgiving, with one asking: "How do you "accidentally" tell your boyfriend that he's a downgrade?"

Another asked: "How is that a joke, I'm confused."
