Meanwhile, the description box read: "HEY EVERYONE… Welcome Back to my channel!!! Since my break up with Nathan, I've been asked hundreds of times what happened with this car since uploading this video!

"The car was always mine and in my name. I paid for it and always dreamed of owning an Aston Martin from watching James Bond 007 movies as a kid! We did this video to create content and do something fun, but sadly, this was us acting and was not a real, genuine surprise. lol."

Jeffree hasn't addressed the changes on social media, however, the description and title now appears to have been changed back to the original text – but not before fans caught the subtle shade.
