"We go again, thankyou so much for all your support! Such a relief!" he began. "To everyone who sees what they want to see, your comments have real life consequences. I will not be lowered or overcome by your gossip. Protect your energy. Great to spend some much needed time today with my boy."

Adam took to Instagram following Saturday's performance

Eirianedd herself shared her own good-humoured response on TikTok in which she wrote in the caption: "Watching your boyfriend almost kiss another women on live TV" as she pretended to cry. She then tipped her head back and fake screamed as the words 'Finding out 10 million people also watched it live' appeared on the screen.
