Social media was flooded on Tuesday night with claims Donald Trump had turned his back on Kellyanne Conway - at least when it came to social media.

Thousands were quick to trumpet that Trump had unfollowed his counselor on Twitter from his personal account, while the official @POTUS and @WhiteHouse accounts did the same.

'Oh. Wow. Donald has unfollowed Kellyanne Conway. There are so many plot twists. It must be near the climax,' author Matt Haig wrote.

'So @realDonaldTrump, @POTUS and @WhiteHouse have all unfollowed @KellyannePolls,' Brian Scully said.

Many claimed Trump had unfollowed Conway's Twitter account - suggesting it was a sign her job was in jeopardy

'CNN will soon have a new contributor,' one user joked about the alleged unfollowings.

'@realDonaldTrump. You, @WhiteHouse and @POTUS all just unfollowed Kellyanne Connway... got something you wanna tell us?!?' William LeGate wrote.

LeGate continued: 'Will she be fired over Twitter? Or are we gonna have to tune into the next episode of Spicer's morning show???'

'He unfollowed her on twitter. She gone,' another added.

Social media users directed many of the comments about Conway's alleged unfollowing at the president

Shortly after the claims because to spread across social media, Trump righted the wrong and followed Conway from both his personal account and @POTUS.

But unfortunately for those who worked themselves into a frenzy over the alleged unsubscribing, it appeared as though Trump never followed Kellyanne in the first place.

A Business Insider article from earlier this month captured how Conway was not among the then-41 accounts followed by the president. Most were his family or businesses, with a few friendly media figures thrown in for good measure.

Others on Twitter tried to point out this apparent fact.

'Sorry but there is zero evidence she was unfollowed by any of the accounts,' Brian Abrams wrote.

'Yeah he never followed her,' journalist Olivia Nuzzi added.

Meanwhile, others were claiming it was Conway who had cut the president out of her social media circle, suggesting she deleted Trump-related snaps from her page.

'6:55pm POTUS, Donald Trump and Whitehouse unfollow Kellyanne Conway on Twitter. 7pm Kellyanne deletes POTUS picture from profile,' one person wrote.

Conway had changed her profile picture recently - although it is not known exactly when - from a shot of the inauguration crowd to one of her with the phrase, 'her way', across the bottom.

The motivation behind her change is not known.

Her profile was also updated so that her 'header image' - the picture across the top of her page - is now a solid pink background.

It capped off a busy day for Conway on Twitter, after she was accused of saying 'love you back' to a white nationalist.
