She shared: 'Please stay for this whole minute video, as I'm trying to make money through the Creator Fund to basically safety-proof my whole flat.
'Because I have a three-year-old, and she's a climber and she's very accident-prone, and I'm gonna show you the things that I need to buy for my flat.'

Another added: 'got enough money for makeup by the looks of it, which aint cheap, begging for money.'
However, one commented: 'well done you for doing your best. it's not easy.'
Rhiannon responded: 'I'm not asking for anyone's money. I'm asking for people to watch the video in order to make money. Bore off.'
