Explaining how exactly this viral selfie came to be, Shannon told Therednow: “So I was taking selfies in my boyfriends bathroom and he comes in and I told him that Im taking pictures. He literally didnt care at all and carried on and went to the toilet, so I just continued taking pictures not really paying attention.

“I left them on my phone for a few days and then looked back and thought Ill upload that its actually quite nice. I obviously didnt realise he was in the mirror and left it up on Instagram for about 40 minutes.

“I got in my car and just thought Ill check the likes and glanced at the mirror and noticed the reflection – I was with my sister at the time and we both just started crying with laughter and I deleted it not thinking anything of it.

“I then sent it in the group chat and my friends were like you have to tweet that its hilarious. Both Henry, my boyfriend, and I found it absolutely hilarious and I asked him if hed be happy for me to put it up and he said yeah its funny go for it, neither of us expecting it to blow up this much! Im so surprised by the reaction but I think its hilarious.”

While the vast majority of people on social media agreed it was hilarious, there were some who doubted the pictures authenticity. Shannon insisted though that picture is legit, which raises the question – was she taking selfies right next to her boyfriend while he was taking a s**t?

Technically yes, was the answer Shannon gave Therednow, adding that the pair had only been together four months.

I for one predict big things for the couple.
